Hi,

To an extent it does depend on what you have done before.

e.g. can you skate, use a scooter - the kiddie 3 wheelers are
are bit of a con - not really different to two wheelers really.

FWIW I learnt to ice skate, which basically I could never do,
by accident in a sense, by looking after a bunch of children
going ice skating for the first time. 2 hours on the ice but
not thinking about what I was doing nearly all of the time
cracked it, you don't "know" how you ride a bike, you don't
"know" how to skate, but something inside works it out.

Strangely though, skating is more amenable to analysis
and improved technique once you conquered the basics,
but riding a bike you simply can or simply can't basically.

rgds, sreten.
