Learning to Ride, but I Ain't Got Wings

...what I do have is a propensity to crash into neighbours' bushes.

...at least I pedalled my way into both of them.

Better than I did last time.

When my younger daughter was learning to ride, we called those "crash landings". As in, "Good job, only 3 crash landings this ride, and none of those into hard objects or people!" Your learning curve seems normal :-)

Ah, reassuring to hear. I feel abnormal enough learning to ride at 26. Every time someone passes me on the street and looks, which is often enough, I just feel like they're all thinking wtf is wrong with *you*? It's awkward.

But if this is normal progress maybe going riding with my partner someday isn't impossible.
