BC wheel hints
Being too intelligent to actually attempt it myself, I have nonetheless noticed a few things while watching three of my kids learn it.
They found a little gentle hill to learn on (dirt). Then, they drove two metal fence-posts into the ground about 3 feet apart. They used these to balance themselves while mounting the wheel, and to give themselves a little push with. A couple hundred tries later and they were all doing great, having each broken the hundred foot barrier and earning the promised twenty dollar bill.
