It is incredibly satisfying, isn't it? Two weekends ago we lugged the bikes up to Burlington VT, and she rode solo on the Lake Champlain bike path. She is barely over 4' 1", riding on a bike with 12" tires, and staying in line with six of us. People kept coming up & commenting on her achievement.
EDIT: Oops... drunk and disorderly yet again. I meant to type 41" tall, not 4' 1". That would be pretty tall for a tiny bike!
