It doesn't happen very often...getting weepy while reading the Wall Street Journal today...
Sept 1 article in the personal journal titled "Look Ma, No Pedals!"....all about ditching the training wheels with balance bikes for the toddlers...it's wonderful on several pedal-less fronts...
Strider bike in action!!!
A: ...this means people today with young kids actually are preparing them to ride for real in the very near future
B: ...I'm hoping someone in the cycling industry placed this story...
...but since the majority of sales of this product will be online and/or in Euroland I doubt it.
However, we can wish that the U.S. bike biz starts thinking this forward...it's a new category, baby, and that's what branding and marketing is all about: 'new' means alot more than 'better'
Yippeeeee...
