Jimmy's bike riding skills

Jimmy is finally mastering his bike, without training wheels! He "only rides it downhill, on the grass so it doesn't hurt when I fall."
When he does rides on the pavement, he coasts, putting his feet down when he feels tippy. I don't think it'll be long before he gains confidence on the pavement as well. I am proud of him for being brave enough to take on the bike!
*You may ask Why not training wheels? They encouraged him to ride crooked and tip over more. That is why he called his bike "the un-tip-able Titanic." He always felt a sense of DOOM when attempting a ride.
