Dirt biker, 2009

Six years old, already racing BMX bicycles since age four. He has never transitioned to racing motorbikes, as there are many more opportunities for kids to compete on non-motorized vehicles in this sparsely populated area. He and his dad putt around on backroads, sometimes. The slower pace is fine with me!

Here he is on a bigger one two years later (yes, he has all the gear, he's just sitting there!): www.ipernity.com/doc/1227338/38401074/in/album/751356

It's a moto-family. Here is one of my brothers on his Ducati: www.ipernity.com/doc/1227338/37201480/in/album/751356

My twin bros in 1973 on their deafening, ancient Indians (1947 & 1936): www.ipernity.com/doc/1227338/37201446/in/album/751356

My son in his vintage shirt, helmet and bike, an Oldtimers race at the local track:
