ABSTRACT:
A training device for teaching children to ride a bicycle comprising a handle, a loop portion for selectively engaging the child's waist, and means for adjusting the size of the loop portion. The loop portion is placed over the head and shoulders of the child and placed around the child's waist. The adjusting means is adjusted so that the loop portion snugly and firmly engages the child's waist so that when the parent holds the handle, the parent can support and control the balance of the child as the child rides the bicycle. In one embodiment, the training device has an elongated member having first and second ends. The first and second ends are coupled together to form the handle and the loop portion therebetween. The first and second ends can be coupled together using any conventional means including, for example, Velcro hook and loop devices, extrusion or molding techniques, glue, or sturdy tape. In the second embodiment, the training device comprises an elongated member having a first end forming the handle and a second end coupled to the adjusting means. The adjusting means comprises a clasp which slidably engages the outer diameter of the elongated member. As the clasp slides towards the handle, the size of loop portion is increased and, as the clasp slides away from the handle, the size of the loop portion is decreased.
