Another Race

We had another race this weekend. Chris couldn't race in this one because he had to work at it. Which means that he was helping to get the track marked off for the racers. Jacob and Riley got to race and they had so much fun. It was a harder track than the last one, but it was longer so the racers weren't piled on top of each other. They also liked that their grandparents, Aunt, and cousins came to watch them. Thank you everyone for coming. We really had a great time. Jacob got 11th out of 12 and Riley got 7th out of 7. They really don't care what place they get, they just love being out there. Plus it is only their 2nd race. Most of the kids that Jacob race with have been racing for a couple of years. I am so proud of them for not giving up when it gets kind of hard.
What made this track more difficult, was that they had to ride on a single track, which most of the younger kids have never done before. A single track is when the track is very narrow and you can not pass. And it makes it even better when you get trophies and meddles.
