Bike.nyc offers free classes and children learn to ride a bicycle in 30 minutes.  See here

Their trick is to removing the training wheels and pedals and lower the seat so that kids put their feet flat on the ground (making a balance bike out of a regular bike). Then the children push with both feet simultaneously and and ride as if it is a balance bike.
