My sons take to the track!

[VaBusa]

...had a few heart attacks yesterday. It was tough to just let them loose on a track full of so many seasoned riders, kids on ATVs, etc. Every rider there was aware of the younger riders though; huge family presence there and everyone seemed to be looking out for one another...

WHAT A FACILITY THOUGH!! If you have dirt bikes, this is a great place to visit. The guy owns 100 acres of land, much of it in the woods. He's spent the last 4 years cleaning out the wooded area for a 2+ mile track for the experienced riders, and the beginner track was far more than I'd anticipated; tons of turns and jumps...my kids had a blast.

Lake Gaston Motocross Track

They had a very fast flat track...my 4 year old (youngest on the track yesterday) blew his big brother his another 6 year old we had go with us out of the water on this track

Had some campers there from the night before...

In the background, through all those trees - nothing but the big boys playing on a 2.2 mile track...

Shots of the beginner track...

 

[VaBusa]

My 4 year old takes a jump for the first time...

 

[VaBusa]

Small break in the riding; they are discussing the track no doubt...

 

[VaBusa]

And Sam's bragging about how high he jumped

 

[Mr Brown]

Sweet M, the fever is starting...."Mom, can I take your bike out tonight, Sally is really cute, and she wants to ride......"

 

[VaBusa]

David's chillin'

He was actually pulled from riding for a while by Mom and Dad for stopping on the track...

 

[VaBusa]

All 3 of the younger riders...David's 4, Sam and Jarred are 6...all still using training wheels, but I think the older two are nearly ready to give them up...not sure if Mom is though!

More of that huge track in the woods in this pic too...

And I worry about my 4 year old on a bicycle !

Cool pics Michelle ! I bet those boys were having a blast !

 

[VaBusa]

David all ready to go!

Boots for both boys are on the list for Christmas...we just bought what you see (except the helmets that we already had) on Saturday - ouch! $400+ to gear them up, but huge piece of mind for Mom

 

[VaBusa]

Same for Sam...couldn't talk him in to the yellow FOX gear, though I tried! Would have helped me figure out who was who on the track more LOL

 

[VaBusa]

David was the first to find a mud puddle...no surprise there LOL

 

[Rhythm]

Great pics Chelle and thanks for sharing. How soon can I expect to see my G-son kickn up some dirt ? Man I cant wait. I already have him in the garage getting use to his new element. LOL

 

[VaBusa]

Our neighbors went along...this is Jarred...

 

[VaBusa]

And his older brother Justin; he checks out this site, so I'll be sure to let him know he's famous now

 

[VaBusa]

One of Justin's jumps...he's been riding for years, usually hits the more aggressive tracks but there were a lot of guys up there yesterday so he kind of hung out on the smaller track...

 

[Rhythm]

Stop teasing me with all the photos. Time isn't flying by fast enough for me !!!

 

[VaBusa]

My Sammy and his big jump...he woke up today talking about it! He also took a corner too fast and did wreck yesterday, but got back on and kept riding...he's a little sore today

 

[VaBusa]

My good friend Jimmy...known him as long as I've known my husband...he's the one that kind of got us in to the sport...
