[QUOTE="AnneBrooks, post: 687532, member: 21408"] I know what you mean.....there are a very limited number of women who ride in Illinois and if they do ride, it's mostly MX, which I don't do. I am fortunate enough that Bob was very patient with me during the learning process and even when others showed up to ride, they would all be sure I was somewhere in the middle, and not left behind. The first year or 2 that I rode, I strictly thought it would be a 'casual' thing and tootle around a little here and there. But, but the end of my 2nd year I put that poor TTR 225 pig through the ringer! Since then I have just progressed and have had fun doing it. Of course, I took a serious side step when I tore my knee apart last year, but even that didn't stop me. I know I am tougher than some of the guys we ride with, because that injury would have had most selling their bikes and never riding again. And this year I was determined that I was going to race all 4 races at Fox Valley, pregnant or not. The doctor said it was fine, 'just don't fall off', as he put it. Turns out that I won the overall championship of the 4 races. Next year, we are going to probably do more races, because I don't race the same time Bob does, and we can switch off with the baby. I am hopeful that next year some of the other girls I know will come on some rides with us and not think the terrain is too much for them. If I can do it, I know they can too! [/QUOTE]
