MTB: Start them young

[NotSoBigBen]

Yip Hr/_BBi you guys are on the right track. Me and Lil' Ben went out yesterday (he's 18' date=' been riding since he was 13) and he still gives me a high five when I manage to clear a technical bit that I couldn't before, find a slightly faster line or am just behind him down a quick rocky down![/quote']

 

You have set a good example to follow.

 

Just prepare yourself couse they will get faster and better and will eventually whip your ar$$e ............

great thing about the kids being out and about at the races is the amount of encouragement complete strangers give them. at one provincial' date=' a vet rider gave my youngest son his medal after breandan finished outside the medal positions. that old dude's got a friend for life.

Hah! Some of you who rode Ride for Sight this year were given your medals by my son... I had him standing on the medal table for a bit handing them out... he loved it...

Herewith a picture of me and my boys before the 94.7 last year. I am very proud of them. We battle to get a distance that keeps everybody happy as the youngest is 6 and the oldest 10. And yes, their mother is taking the picture and also did the ride.

bbi, i've kinda outgrown the whole logwood thing, but the kids love it when they go there. it's nice and self-contained, which means you can leave them up to their own devices for hours on end.

Personally, I have never enjoyed it, I am more of a endurance/XC type rider, but the kids love it.
