Top Reviews for BEIP

Pete was absolutely amazing with my 10 year old son! After attending multiple other "bike schools" and private lessons, I had about given up hope that my son would ever ride a bike. Pete had a great method and built up a good relationship and confidence in my son so quickly.

A parent always dreams of teaching their children to ride and to watch them pedal away for the first. Unfortunately, this experience often ends in frustration and tears, at least it did for us. Enter Pete! One afternoon learning with Peter made her so confident and proud! And watching her pedal towards me was a gift.

Pete had our son riding a bike for the first time in half an hour after we had spent weeks without success. He had a mental checklist for what our son was ready for and used 3 different bikes as he was ready for the next step. Pete was very friendly and competent and we could trust him to steer our son in the right direction.

Though we made several tries at it, our son had not gotten comfortable on a bike by his early teens. When Pete offered to help him, we jumped at the chance. After one outing, my son came home, walking taller, with a smile, feeling confident on a bike for the first time.
