BMX Crystal Ridge style

So I took the cretins to the new track at Crystal Ridge for the first time last night. They had one word for it: cool. It's been since February since they've been on a track and they loved it. It's probably 2 1/2 times as long as Elkhorn and laid out really well. If they can build up some stamina and skills on this track, Elkhorn should be fun this winter.

It was Hayes/Sun Ringle night at the track. All kinds of characters associated either by employment, racing or whatnot. I hope that the powers that be at the track start some weekend practices too as that would only help the kids before indoor starts.

Here are some of the best shots:


The Rocket and The Boy wheel to wheel. Thanks Nate.


Ooooh, big air from the Big Daddy Jay-doh.

The Boy showing some good racing form.


Concentration.
