Training wheels definitely aren含羞草研究社檛 necessary for this Vancouver Island kid.
Nanaimo含羞草研究社檚 Kashius Weme, who hasn含羞草研究社檛 yet turned three, is pedalling at a level far beyond his years.
Weme含羞草研究社檚 precocious abilities on two wheels, not to mention a TikTok account with 35,000-plus followers, have earned him attention of late, and even sponsorships as Pinkbike and Spawn Cycles have recently reached out.
Weme含羞草研究社檚 mother, Kimeesha See, says her son seemed to be into bikes before he could even walk. He started by taking his run bike everywhere, and it wasn含羞草研究社檛 long before he was confident enough on it that it was time for a pedal bike.
含羞草研究社淎nd he just took off,含羞草研究社� See said.
Weme saw older kids at the bike park and wanted to do what they were doing, even if that meant taking to the big hills.
含羞草研究社淚 think I just kind of grew accustomed to him on a bike, but then I started noticing that literally every single time where he含羞草研究社檚 out on a bike, someone stops us [to say], 含羞草研究社榃ow, he含羞草研究社檚 incredible on his bike,含羞草研究社� 含羞草研究社榃ow, he can control his bike really well,含羞草研究社� just all sorts of compliments on his riding,含羞草研究社� See said.
She understands now how well her son rides for his age 含羞草研究社� she含羞草研究社檚 challenged to keep up with him. Weme can navigate expert single-track on Nanaimo含羞草研究社檚 Doumont hill, and has lately been learning to speed around on a little motorbike.
Wherever the youngster cycles, the family is finding that the other riders are more than willing to share the track with a two-year-old.
含羞草研究社淗onestly the biking community is amazing here,含羞草研究社� See said. 含羞草研究社淓veryone is so supportive, all the older kids are so helpful with the little kids.含羞草研究社�
And then there含羞草研究社檚 the support on social media, too. See didn含羞草研究社檛 expect to blow up the way it did, but said it含羞草研究社檚 neat that people like to watch the videos and follow along on her son含羞草研究社檚 journey wherever his two wheels take him.
含羞草研究社淲e含羞草研究社檒l just see what he gravitates towards and follow what he wants to do,含羞草研究社� See said. 含羞草研究社淩ight now we含羞草研究社檒l just leave the options open for him.含羞草研究社�
