[QUOTE="YZMAN400, post: 788822, member: 49098"] [b]But wait there is more![/b] I got home around 4:00pm. just in time for the mail to arive. In the mail there was a letter from Ted. Inside there was a Woodsy trailside emergency kit and the stick on letters for the new name of my bike [B]SKIPPY[/B] I heard a few times throughout the day about how did me and the bike stay clean. So I guess the name Woodsy dubed my bike has stuck. Well my wife taked off to work and I am thinking "my sholders hurt, My fingers are throbing..... Hmmmm" I holler at my son. "Bren put on some socks we are going ridding." We head out and are soon at Horseshoe lake. There is no one there. How can this be. Its a prefect day out and the place is deserted. We gear up and head out on the small loop across the road. It is a nice change of pace to ride behind my 8yr old son after racing thru Evart all day. The pain in my arms soon goes away as I settle into a easy pace behind my son. He is doing pretty good in the woods on his TTR90. Tree roots dont seem to phase him at all as he just rolls over them. I tried to drill about the 2 most importand things of trail ridding that I could think of. 1. ride on the balls of your feet. He was ridding with his toes sticking way out and catching everything. I explained that he is gonna hit something hard doing this and its gonna hurt. 2. Keep your feet on the pegs. It helps with ballance. He did pretty good with his feet after that. But keeping them on the pegs is another thing. Ballance is something that he will have to work on. But I think he realized the benifit of keeping your feet tucked in and up. Going slow behind him I was able to get my digital camera out and snap a photo while riding. That is tricky to say the least. try ridding thru single track one handed and take a picture. It is a bit blurry but you get the idea. [url]http://img32.photobucket.com/albums/v97/yzman400/evart/Brendon_in_motion.jpg[/url] We stopped for a break and I took another shot. [url]http://img32.photobucket.com/albums/v97/yzman400/evart/brendon_1.jpg[/url] That loop is like 7 1/2 miles. We made it around in about 1 hour. I got a big kick outta him once. There was about a 6" rotted tree down in the trail. Bren went around it and I rolled over it. He stopped and said " I coulda went over that dad I just didn't feel like it" ;) We got back to the parking area. There was another truck and bikes there unloading. I went over and talked for a bit while Brendon rode around that field at the entrance. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hey Ted and I had a talk about how that Waitress in Baldwin knew him. Turns out that I was right in my asumption. And no woodsy I aint gonna tell ya. Figure it out yourself. :nener: [/QUOTE]
