A post for Morgen

Morgen discovered bmx racing a couple years ago, tried it out and really wanted to do it. It didn't work out for him to actually join until this spring when the season started again. This summer he's been at the track to race nearly every week, and likes to go out to it in between to practice when he has a chance.

The track, early spring at the beginning of the season.





Before the actual races start, all the racers ride the track as a group while the National Anthem is played. There's always one biker in the lead carrying a flag. Kind of fun to see!

Lining up...I don't think he's in this picture.




At the starting gate, ready to roll!










One of the curves. I don't think Morgen was actually in this picture.


One week this summer his friend was visiting, and went out to watch Morgen race. He found out he could race too as a guest, Both boys ended up with a trophy that night. Morgen would love to have one of his friends around to bmx with on a regular basis!


Kaela's watching pretty close how this works, she is fascinated by the racing, and thinks she would like to try it too! At this particular race she got to barrow a bike & helmet and ride the track!
