Am I too late to chime in? I also taught myself - in Edmonton, Alberta as a wee lad (before kindergarten). It was over one day, after taking the training-wheels off. If I remember correctly, I got two bloody-noses (how do you get a bloody-nose riding a bike without really hurting yourself?), but as soon as the blood had stopped, I ran back to my bike. I have no idea what the bike was, but I think it was red. But that could have been rust.
