Yup.. when I was a kid we rode tricycles and big wheels until we were around 5 and then went straight to bicycles without training wheels. My parents didn't seem to even know training wheels existed. My younger brother not to be left out, simply taught himself on my bike & a few other neighbors kids earlier and my parents ended up breaking down and getting him his own bike earlier. At that age we were allowed out to play on a quite side-street in a group, with usually only one mom looking out of her window to make sure we were OK. Very different in those days.
