I Wanna Be A Dirt Bike Rider!

Yesterday was our first family ride at Five Mile Pass.  Andy has taken Riley there many times, but this was the first time we all went there to ride together as a family!  Kendall was able to fit into Riley's old jersey and pants and ended up wearing his ski helmet and ski goggles because we didn't have an extra helmet for her.  It worked out well.

Kendall spent most of her time riding double with me.  We did hill climbs, whoops, burms and a few fishtails and donuts.  She kept squealing for more!  Riley got to show me all his favorite places to ride and the little tracks he's created.  Andy got to show me the hill climbs and jumps he enjoys and I got a chance to practice some small jumps (keep in mind it's been almost 10 years since I've really ridden my 4wheeler!).  Thankfully it was like riding a bicycle - it all comes back to you pretty quickly!

We tried some trail riding after lunch and Riley did very well!  Some of it was steep and rocky but he was a trooper and followed our path up and down the trails.

I think by next summer Kendall will be ready to transition to the 50 and Riley into a 70.  We've got a friend who we bought the 50 from who is going to deliver the 70 to our house in Utah on his way from Cali to Rhode Island next year.  That will be perfect timing!  Too bad that we don't live near the Meeks family anymore, because our boys always enjoyed riding with the Meeks boys.  Someday...So for now, we will make it a family affair!
