Racing

So Cannon says he wants to flat track race his quad.  This is a big step for him since he really would rather ride the 3-wheeler.  However, after Chris and Cannon changed the tires on his quad from paddles to dirt tires, Cannon has ridden more in the last two days than he has in the last 6 months.

This weekend Cannon practiced going around in circles in the backyard.  He improved each time.  He listened really well to Chris when Chris gave him pointers and suggestions.  Most importantly, Cannon went out and DID what Chris suggested.  Chris rode on the 3-wheeler and 'raced' with Cannon, which quickened Cannon's pace.  It also taught him about being passed and about passing people.

For now, Cannon is excited.

The racing season starts in mid-October.  There is a beginner class for kids who are 6 and under who have never raced before.  We'll see how it goes!



Enjoying every moment.
