Down To Earth

Kid gives inspirational speech after learning to ride a bike

There are many reasons why I ride a bike - it keeps me healthy, it saves me money, it's good for the planet, and, most importantly, it's fun. Fun like being a kid again. I remember the thrill of learning to ride a bike when my mom pushed me forward and I finally rode by myself after numerous failed attempts, pedaling as fast as my little legs could carry my Huffy.

That memory makes this video even more special. So here's something for all the kids out there who are having a hard time learning to ride a bike. This young courageous rider explains "Believe in yourself... keep practicing and you'll keep getting better and better!" That applies to life in general but the dramatic closing music fits the trials of learning to riding a bike. I think it's from Braveheart.

Watch this amazing video after the jump.
