I was about that age, probably a year younger (grade 5 I think). We all learn when we're ready. Until recently, I wondered why I couldn't do stuff on bikes that other people could do - hand signals are still problematic. Turns out one of the effects of bi-polar is lousy balance and guess what. Funny thing is, I've been riding these here bike thingies since my teens, been building bikes since then, done things that were really rather ambitious, yet have never achieved anything significant by the standards of what you read on this and other forums.
