We live on a diary farm and our boys really wanted motorbikes, so we told them that they had to be riding their bikes without training wheels before they where allowed to ride a motorbike. So they where both riding without trainers before 4.
It is a completly individual thing my DS3 turnes 3 this weekend and has got a 3 wheeler trike that he can ride and peddle but he LOVES his scooter and would prefer riding it.
We got DD1 a bike when she was almost 3 (with training wheels). Loved it. Could have had one much earlier. Took her training wheels off when shegturned 5 and she rode with ease (probably could have removed them much earlier too). She's getting a new bike for Xmas.
DD2 has been riding a bike with a handle since before 2. Pedals no problem. We'll swap her over to DD1's old bike (with training wheels) at Xmas and shee how she goes. Pedalling will be fine, not so sure about the steering.
