Motorcycle Racing at Knolls




Orson got to "race" in his first motorcycle race today at Knolls. Not to bad for just getting the training wheels off his motorcycle. He was so excited to get there this morning, but then the nerves kicked in, then all we heard was that he wanted to go home. Once the race started it was a different story, he loved it, wrong turns off the track and everything. On the way home all the stress and work of the race had the little boy who doesn't nap sound asleep. It was really fun to see all those little kids racing and all the people there to cheer them on and help them. Orson even picked up an older boy who raced in another race on the back of his bike to help him through some congestion. The important thing is that he won by finishing the race!

Race Rules:
Finish as many laps as you can in 45 minutes.
1. Have Fun
2. Be Safe
3. Don't hurt your friends.

How cute! Man he has gotten so dang big! Where did the little boy go? Riding motorcycles? That is so cool! Maybe he can give me a lesson or two!
