Watch out! Twin two 2 olds are coming to the 2011 Strider World Championships. Christian and Matthew compete with each other for 30 to 45 minutes almost every day on their Striders day, and go Mountain Biking with their dad each weekend.
Even though they’re only 26 to 27 months, they are experienced. They’ve been Striding for 8 to 9 months. Matthew is the smaller of the two boys and the real dare devil. Fearless, he just takes off and goes. Christian has a bit more caution, but loves to race his brother. They’ve not competed with others before and will be attending the Qualifier Race on Friday. Be there to cheer them on!
Dad Christian, a dedicated mountain bike rider, was looking for a bike for the kids when they were 18 months and ran across balance bikes online. He says, “Choosing the Strider was a no-brainer. It has a great strategy because it’s small and light, and my boys could start riding at 18 months. It’s way better than a trike.”
Dad says the Striders have given him just what he wanted and they’ve never looked back. He likes to be active on his bike and finds it exhilarating to be able to share his passion for riding with his kids – at the tender age of 2.
That's my boys...love you guys so much..you will do great!
