I never learned to ride a bike. When I lived with my grandparents, they never got me one(My mom did get me one before that, which I had at my grandparents' house, but they refused to take off the training wheels and then I was eventually too tall for it and they put it in a garage sale.) and eventually my mom got me one, at the time she didn't live anywhere that I could ever really ride the thing and then once we all moved back in with her my sister and brothers took it and wrapped it around a tree or something. Oh, and my stepsister (I used to have one years ago, but my father eventually left my then-stepmother) decided to try and force me to learn one summer when I was visiting them, and I gave up when she pushed the bike- with me on it- out into the street and I almost got hit by a car.
So that's the sad, sad, tragic tale of how Fuego never learned to ride a bike.
Sometimes I think it would be convenient to have one. For serious. But like, yeah...sorry...I think it would be way too embarrassing to try to learn now. I mean, I can see me out there in the lot behind the house, kicking along with one foot and....no. Just, no.
