Look Who Can Ride A Dirt Bike!!!

My sister, Heather, and her husband, Layne, are big into motor cross dirt bikes. Layne has told Jarren and Jacob that if they learned how to ride their bikes without training wheels, He would let ride the little 50 that he bought over the summer. So about two weeks ago I took Jarren and Jacob out to the race track by their place. The boys were sooo excited, because the dirt track site is right next to the Miller Race Way and they were have a large NASCAR race that day as well. We were close enough to see the cars coming around the track. Jarren and Jacob could pick out cars that reminded them of the Pixar Cars Movie. It was fun to see them get all excited about the cars and the bikes. You would have thought I left in a candy store to do what ever they wanted.
When we first got there my dad had gotten some KFC. Which was great since I had not fed the boys lunch yet. After we ate Layne took Jarren 1st on the little bike. Jarren road for a little bit then got off. He had a little trouble getting balance, and was not sure if he liked it. Jacob got on and found that balancing the bike was much harder then his bike at home. He also did not last long. I was sure the they would not get back on, until Layne offered to take them on his bike with him out on the track. Jarren went first and had so much fun. He was timid at first, but by the time Layne brought him in from the track he was telling Layne to go faster.
Then it came time for Jacob to get on, but first we had to deal with a large rain shower. We had to wait it out in side Heather and Layne's bike trailer it was kinda cool. After it was over Jacob took a turn riding with Layne on the track. You could not get Jacob to agree to come in. Every time they came around you hear Jacob saying "Layne go faster and faster".
Now by this time they were both wanting to try the small bike again by themselves. Jarren just took to it like a fish in water. He road the whole length of the parking lot. He wanted to go on the little training track, but Layne said not yet. Maybe after few more times on the bike. After Jarren, Jacob took his turn. He was so determined to ride it by himself just like Jarren and he did. Wow!! I can not believe my boys can ride a motor cross bike. We had a great time and it was nice to see Layne helping the boys. I think he enjoyed it. Thanks Heather and Layne for having out.
