I was sitting having a coffee tonight when my 4Yr old boy (nearly 5) asked me to come outside and watch him do a skid on his trike.
Bearing in mind he was wearing his sisters pink crocs and still Isn't big enough to reach the peddles without sitting on the frame I thought it may well be worth taking the phone for a video opportunity.

What impressed me most was the slight hint of opposite lock applied smile

Matty.

I think it's all about mastering the lift off oversteer !

I must say though I have two boys one 15 and Alfie on the scooter who's nearly 5, The older lad has never had the slightest interest in cars whatsoever but from the age of about 1 Alfie has been car bonkers and has never left the house without a toy car in his pocket and regularly used to nick em from nursery.

The older lad must have more of the wifes input I suppose.
