Abstract
A device to assist someone, such as a parent, in teaching a child to ride a bicycle. The device is a strap to be worn around the child's chest and extending around the back which can be fastened by way of velcro, buckles, or any other well-known fastening device. Two smaller or thinner straps are then attached to the main belt in the back which extend across the back of the belt and terminate in the middle in a ring or handle which can be grasped by the riding instructor. Such a device allows the teacher or instructor to hold the child itself rather then the bicycle and if the bicycle begins to fall it can be let go safely while holding onto the child.
