bean's school had a bike-a-thon to raise money for all the programs that they bring in. it was an exciting day. we brought her trike in to school and we waited for her class's turn to ride...
after an introduction and lots of instruction the director to the preschool set them loose on the track!
go little bean, go!!!
after 15 minutes of non-stop riding the kids rode over to an awards platform. each of them got up and was given a gold medal and was declared "a winner" and everyone cheered and clapped for them. the kids were SO happy and proud. they got popcicles to celebrate the terrific job they all did.bean had to show off her bling for the camera.
bean did a wonderful job. she rode carefully and never stopped to take a break- i thought for sure she would, she has never peddled for that long before. i said "wow! you did great. i thought that you would be tired." and she said, "i was tired mommy.... but i really wanted to finish!" how awesome is that?! i am very, very proud. and bean? she just wants to know when the next bike-a-thon is! ;)

You certainly have something to be proud of, such perseverance!
What a brilliant event. Bean looks so little next to some of the others though. Good thing she had that robust trike to make her presence felt! I love the shot with her medal. Great post :-)

How cute is that?! Love her commitment and perseverance. What a little athlete she is!
Sounds like you have a little cyclist there! : )
I love her tricycle. I've never seen one like that before. It looks so sturdy and well designed.
Go Bean - great job!!
Oh my gosh! I love these pictures! All those little "bikers", too much! What a great idea.
Go BEAN!
