This instructable will teach you very basic bike trick: the bunny hop. The bunny hop is just like a normal jump, but with your bike. Skilled bikers can jump over about 1m height objects.

The jump itself is a little tricky. You have to get both of your wheels in the are at the same time. To get this done, you have to push your handlebars a little away from you while you push it in the air. Then you jump in the same moment.

Make sure you jump not too fast with your feets since you want to jump with your bike.

If you managed to handle the last step, this step will be easy: just wait until the gravity finished the trick for you.
