Dirt Bikes...Dad...Mom



So I am attempting to take up a new sport...DIRT BIKING!!!! Both my parents love to dirt bike and it is fun to be able to go out with them. The problem is I'm not very good at it yet...I have officially done it 3 times now..lucky for me my mom bought a new bike last year so as of right now she has 2 and has been letting me ride her old one while I decide whether or not to buy it!
Below are a few pictures of me not doing so great at riding the bike! This was last August, I broke my collar bone and had a HUGE burise on my behind after this little off road experiance!



The dude in the riding gear would be my awesome dad...he saved me! For about 2 mins (which felt like an eternity) I was trapped under the bike and feared that I had gone so far off the road that my parents would not notice that I had crashed for a bit and worse that they would not be able to find me...I had gone off the edge of a dirt road into all the boulders you see in the pictures down about 25 ft.

The other man you see...well kinda a cool story...not sure what his name is or anybody else that was with him. But they happened to be on a pioneer trek and saw my Dads bike lying on the ground in the road and decided to stop and see what was going on. Lucky they stopped because for some reason my Dad was able to lift the bike off me (probably adreneline rush) and once he knew that I wasn't on the brink of death he went down to try and get the bike out of there but had no luck. So these very nice people were able to help my Dad get the bike up the rock hill and lucky that someone there new how to ride bikes cause they drove the bike down for us and the other lucky part is...if they had not been there it would have been very hard to get me out there...when you break your collar bone, it hurts just to even walk and ride in a car! I will always consider myself blessed from this experience and I am forever greatful for those people for stopping and helping me and my family out!!! You just don't see that happening anymore!
