BMX Double Point Race, Saturday




Well Jack had his race yesterday and did wonderful! He had three races to run the first one was the Big Wheel Race and was only half the track. HE practiced three times around the track first along with all the other 13 and under riders. there was a lot of people there apparently this was the biggest race in the county. There were quite a few good spills taken by the riders but no serious injury as I could tell. Grandpa chi Grandma Nae Bry and Daphne were able to make it and watch Jack run two of the three races.
Jack received a RED TROPHY for his Big Wheel Race and a BLUE TROPHY fr his last race which he came in 5th and 4th on his second race.
We need to get him a lighter bike. Hes a fast rider if only he had a lighter and bigger bike. This was the last ride of the season until May so Colby and I are committed to saving up for a BMX bike over those few months so he can have a full face helmet and a true BMX bike. They cost between 200. and 600. but we'll start with the low end until he gets really good, then we'll see from there.
It was exciting to see him do something I know he enjoys. He was a little disappointed to finish in the last category but he'll get better with practice I know it, the new bike will defiantly help, hes really not that far behind all the others , if he had the bike I bet he would have finished 2nd or maybe even better.
