Proud day for me

My boys punched the rain, weariness, and pain in the face!

My son, now 15 but this was on his 12th birthday. Wow, 3 years went by fast.

Well, my kids are adults, but proud dad moment... Daughter, 24, is up for a supervisor's position where she works. Son, 26, started a new job today, making 12k/year more than the previous job (which was darned good money!) and is qualified to buy a home. So, they are building... All a parent wants is for their kids to succeed...

My son says he has to pull doubles to go camping today..

Good time riding with the girls today. This is a spot where we crossed from 2 track to single track, and they had to brave the shrubbery.

Those girls are so rad! Did T and Jackson ride too?

One of our girls is absolutely crazy about her Jeep. It's definitely her favorite toy:

although its hard at times to let my boys help me work on my vehicles, especially when they start moving my tools around. I love it when they want me to put their little car or their power wheels on jack stands and want to work on it, they get my crawler and roll around on it, under their firetruck power wheels, tell me whats wrong and fix it. even if that means fixing it is just coloring the bottom with a pencil or marker. Now they don't have to crawl under it as much.

Some time spent riding the other day.

My son tipped over in the driveway towards the end of the day, and bruised his knee a bit. He said he needed knee pads and a crash jacket, so off to the store we went.


and just now I drop some money on new helmets for the girls again.. This is getting expensive.

This is getting expensive.

There is a reason we have come up with this for our race team efforts.

Not in the budget! I asked Paul if I could join Nitb racing and he told me sorry. No offense, but it's not in the budget this year. Check back next year. I'm sure I'll hear the same thing again.

I was pretty proud of a couple of my kids this weekend. It was awesome.

First, my Wyatt turned 7 and asked to go fishing with Dad for his birthday so off we went! He reeled in some 18-21" Cutthroats. After about 25 he wanted to go. lol


Then Saturday we went turkey hunting again. Kids at 4:00am are funny. Anyway after a long, long hike and not much action we finally got lucky (or good). My Son took an awesome tom. 9" beard.

My little girl was finally able to get out and ride her very own dirt bike this weekend. We went out camping with several other kids who also had dirt bikes to let her watch and learn the ropes. This wasn't her first time on one but it was the first time she could ride for an extended amount of time. It didn't take her long to realized she didn't need any help from me and wanted to rip around at her own pace. By the end of the weekend she was riding like a maniac, letting that competitive edge push her past any fears she may have hiding inside. This girl is going to be trouble...

She was insanely good.

I sold my girls' PW50's last week in anticipation of buying some TTR50's, which are just a little bigger than the pw50's. The bikes I intended to buy got sold before I got to them... So I didn't have bikes for them tonight for Motorcycle Monday's. I decided to try them on my TTR90 and PW80. They LOVED them. This makes it easy for me, as I already had these bikes, I don't have to go spend money on other bikes, and they will be able to ride these for many years before they need to upgrade again.
Very proud of them. They were a little shy about riding on the track tonight, so they just tore up the grass instead.

Years ago I fit a CR80 shock into the pw. It made the suspension work well for me, and added a few inches of height. I had to take it off yesterday for the girls..

My son has been watching the Shane Watts training videos, and wants to practice. Here he is working on standing position and obstacle practice.
