Dunno how you'd attach training wheels to an adult bike.

What I'd suggest is finding somewhere that's a slight incline, so you can start off by rolling downhill.
The faster you roll the easier it is to balance but from what I have seen of friends trying mine, most people have problems getting enough speed because they want to dangle one foot in case they start to fall over.
