Hello, I'm wondering how to ride a bike.... The sad thing is that I am in grade 6 and I can't ride a 2 wheeler :(. My main issue is balance, I always seem to lean, then fall on my left or right. But can someone tell me everything?

Like:
How to get on a bike (I don't how, I think my bike is too big)
How to get off a bike...
How to gain speed
Etc.

For those who post answers,
Thank you guys (and girls) so much!!! I might finally be able to ride my bike to the mall with my friends :)
 
to get on: stand over the frame (not on the seat) hands on handle bars and one foot on one pedal at 90 degree angle with other foot on the ground. Then try pushing off with your foot that's on the pedal in a downward motion hopping on the seat and continue pedaling.

To get off: same thing above but reverse. brake to a stop completely then step off one pedal getting off the seat but over the frame.

Gain speed: Shift gears ( if you have them ) one by one and you'll notice it gets harder but you'll gain speed

hope it helped and good luck!
 
try by ridding down a small hill
you'll have no but to pedal or fall off
thats how i learned
i used to wiggle the handle bars left to right to keep balance
