Finlay Mini Moto Update

Finlay riding carefully!

Over the last couple of weeks Finlay has been getting a raw deal riding his Mini Moto. Either he's crashed it and lost confidence or it's broken down and needed 'fettling' back at the garage. Today I put the full sized shock on his bike for the first time and made sure the damn thing didn't break down. I was careful to make sure the got off to a good start and he soon settled down and started enjoying riding his updated bike.


Finlay followed Jacks 'track' around the field and enjoyed riding his bike for the first time this year! All Good.

Jack - Back on His Mini Moto

Go Jack Go!!

Jack decided he wanted to ride his Mini Moto for the first time in months. My day out at Donington last week must have made him think he was missing out on something. The field was pretty wet underfoot and Jack had to be pretty careful. He judged the conditions perfectly and didn't fall off once. (Unlike me!) Mud was flying everywhere, he made a track and was soon getting faster, it kept him occupied for ages.

I had a go on my brothers enduro bike and fell off in the mud on my third lap, more fool me!! Most amusing for the kids.

The main thing was Jack enjoyed himself and was enthusiastic about riding.

Zoom Zoom!

Managed to get Finlay onto his Minimoto today! It's been a while, I got him started last year but he doesn't like the noise and all the commotion. When you're 6 years old just turning the throttle is hard work.

To be fair once he got going he really enjoyed it. After about an hour he still didn't want to call it a day, but we'd ran out of Petrol.

I would have loved to have a bike when I was a little kid, but there was no Chance of Mum and Dad getting me something like that. I think the longer I had to wait to get a bike the more I wanted one, and that left an impression on me.
