That's probably why she wouldn't ride even if she wanted. No one wants to be the butt of someone else's joke or be laughed at. Maybe you should consider getting her a bike that's worthy of riding instead?
A bad bike is bound to make anyone slow and comical looking. If you really want to get her into riding, at least get a decent bike for her to ride on, or else let her drive in peace.
