Thank you, it was funny, on the podium when the guy asked if he had been practicing a lot, Colby said "nah not really just riding around my yard". The guy said  "well it looks like its working"
Cant wait to see you guys out there.

I miss going down there with my son. I believe I applied to much pressure and made him choose a diff sport. I was still learning the whole dad thing.

Your boys ripping great job.

Thank You all for the encouraging words. Colby is sitting here with me.
We hope he can carry this momentum to the next race in 2 weeks.

Your boys ripping great job.
I understand what your saying, it is easy to do. I sometimes catch myself in the moment and have to step back and take a breath. There are a lot of parents out there that put too much pressure on the kids and you can tell who's heart is in it and who's is not. The last thing I tell him before every gate drop is, "have fun, ride your race, hold your lines, ride safe and I dont care what the outcome is as long as you have fun and finish on all 4 wheels". He knows what he wants now and how to get it. I always check to make sure this is what HE wants to do and he knows if he ever chooses to stop we will.
