The game's question

Read the story slowly, then let the memories pick up speed on their own.

Picture it: a big hand holding the back of the seat, the handlebars wobbling—and then the moment the hand lets go… and you’re riding on your own! Then there was the bike itself: its color, its bell, the street or the dirt road where you learned. Tell each other: who taught you to keep your balance? And where was it?

A story to tell—every answer is welcome

Need a hint?

Help with little questions: Was the bike new or a hand-me-down? What color was it? How many spills did it take? No bike of your own? A borrowed one counts too.

Why this game : Learning to ride stays in the body, along with the pride. Telling it lets you enjoy a childhood triumph a second time.
