Her first try...

[Sherriism]

So, I wanted to share with you....

My beautiful daughter was helping me get the Ducati ready to be shipped to San Diego. My friend Kessyan (the Russian) stopped by to send her off and when I went inside to grab the Honda Polish.... I came outside to find Avalon on his R6!!!! At first I freaked. As you know the accident was only a couple weeks ago.... but they both were right, safely up and down the street was ok. I did pay for her to take the class and get an M for this reason right?!

*bites nails* and yet is very proud

Haha! I started young too on dirt. I feel like a hypocrite with her... it is hard... but I also want to share it with her... She is just ready to go if I'd let her!!!

When we were kids our mom wouldn't let our dad get us a little dirtbike. In mom voice" you'll kill yourself."so I developed a fear of bikes that lasted until I was thirty.

Loved the video, especially where you say "What is she doing?????"

My son rides, and yeah, it was really stressful at first, but darned if he didn't turn into a heck of a rider. NO ONE on earth I would rather ride with, it's almost telepathic. We both instinctively know what the other is doing, and he is the ONLY person I can ride with in total confidence.

That said, I still worry about him. But that's parenting and as far as I know, it is a lifetime job, but a good one.

Hehe, that is what my father still says to this day (with a dash of "you're a mother!" guilt)... My mother raced derby & dragsters... It was my Mama who helped me build my stroker for my first car
