Because I am a kind of person who believes in learning and learning is the never ending process. So, I told to my mother to teach me this skill because she is the best chef in my eyes and I believe that she is the jack of all trades.

My grandfather used to sit at back and continue guiding me but one day I obstinate to ride aloof and fell after covering some distance due to which my knee and elbow were severely injured. Hence I decided to drop the idea of learning bicycle riding but after a few days my grandfather assisted me to screw up courage and he left no stone unturned to teach me this skill.
Eventually, his incessant efforts and exhortation proved fruitful and I became proficient in cycling. I felt over the moon and I’m exceedingly grateful to my grandfather for teaching me such a useful skill that not only made my childhood more enjoyable but also acted as a foundation stone for driving skills.
