My 3 year old’s “new” Birthday Bike today!

I live for the CABE
My little girl turns 3 today! Her first bike!! I picked up this 1977 Schwinn 16” Pixie II for her last winter. They seller just threw it in with my red dx cause the og solid wheels were completely shot. So last weekend at the flea, I scored a nice white wall donor bike along with horn, bell (germany) and heavy duty training wheels. Finished up the pixie late last night..why not wait till the last minute? Still need to shorten the chain. Couldn’t find my breaker last night..still can’t find it today lol. She helped me adjust the seat and add her name plate this morning. I ran inside to grab helmet and shoes… and she hopped right on and figured it right out! We have a full wrap around porch..she did many laps this morning with dad. Then proudly parked it in the line up! Good ole days!

Sweet little project today. My daughter loves to fix , build and figure things out. She is really big for her age and already out grew her 16” schwinn. We gave her a box of parts with a picture as one of her Xmas gifts. She was so excited to build her own bike. I did most of the clean up /detailing ahead of time but saved a little bit for her to do. Everything went really well. This is the first bike we built together I’m sure it won’t be the last.
