Dirt Biking With The Grandkids
« on: March 22, 2012, 08:26:58 PM »

Melanie and I got a chance to go out dirt biking with her son (Rich), his wife and their two sons, Rich's cousen, his wife and their son and daughter a couple of weeks ago. What a blast seeing the grandkids ride! It's amazing how much improvment in only a couple of months since we had seen them last ride. Pics are from phone so not all that great.

Carson coming back after having some fun. Rich in the foregroung, me in the background

Short video of Carson on the track (double click pic)

Neither of the kids can shift yet, even with auto clutchs, but Carson is learning to stand up when needed and talks often of "getting air" when navagating over 1' humps. Lots of fun to watch them :2vrolijk_21:

Nothing like having a fun family outing.  It doesn't matter what you're doing just as long as you are having a good time and spending time with your loved ones.

Looks like the kids where having a blast.     :2vrolijk_21:

In the ole days it was ride for 3-4Hrs eat lunch then ride for 3-4 more Hrs then head home. Now it's dress the kids for 1 Hr (getting gloves on a 2 year old takes 15 min) Then spend another 1/2 Hr because now they have to go "potty". Watch them practice for 1/2 hour. Over to the track to watch them ride for a couple of hours. Back for lunch. Play with them and their RC cars for an hour. Back to the track to watch them for an hour. Then us guys get to ride for 45 min. Then watch them practice for 1/2 Hr. then home. It's all about the kids. All they want to do is ride.... Gotta love them
