Race Day - Easter GP

Race 4 of the season....this one was an added race and only about 20 minutes away from our house at one of the local tracks.

Pre-race advice from dad.

Start.....this was a dead start which meant they had to straddle the front of there bike and when they got the green then they could go around and get on there bike and start it and GOOOOOOOO.

He got a slow start because it took him a little bit to get the bike started but by the second lap he had already passed a bunch.

This was a long race 4miles per lap so we didn't get to see a lot of it this was one of the spots that we could see.

1st Place..........................He's really excited about this. This will bump him up to 1st in the points. So far it's the smallest trophey he's gotten but he didn't care cause it had that 1st place on it.
CONGRATULATIONS KEITH!!!!

Race Day-Copper Classic

Race 3 of the season. What a long day! We got up around 3:00 am....................finally left around 5:30 so we would make registration at 8:00. Race didn't start until 2:00 in the afternoon and it was HOT. Even with all that we had a great time and a great race.

Keith getting ready to line up.

Keith lined up waiting for his turn to go. This race there were 11 kids in his class. All 11 are lined up in a row and go at the same time. It's kind of scary sometimes with them all going together.

This is one of those scary times. You can't see it very good in this picture but they only had a short time before a turn so they were pretty bunched up. Luckily nobody went down.

This is Keith coming down the straightaway. This was a really fast section and he was blowing through it......faster than we've ever seen him ride. Unfortunatey we didn't get a lot of pictures this time because...........Yes we've become one of THOSE parents that hoop & holler from the side.

Another great finish.............2nd Place!!!!!
