Great time with my Bestest Buddy !

It doesn't get much better than having my grandson call to see if he could come over for a ride. Jack is six and has had his new bike for about a month now. Where he lives all his riding is done in the driveway, or in the front and back yard. Ever since he and his sister came out on our trails for a ride right after getting there new bikes that's all he talks about. Each visit I take them on a little tougher trail and coach them threw the new challenges. So today it was off to ride around the lake with a snack and getting his feet wet at the half way point. Then getting ready for the final climb home, like I said it doesn't get much better than this.

That is really neat. I occasionally go bmx racing with my 2 boys and its a blast. They always like to beat the old man.

That's awesome. It's so great that you get to spend that type of quality time with your grandchildren.
Keep it up!

Thanks Gigatt21,

I really enjoy every moment with my little grand buddies, and am hoping to have a riding partner or two as they get older.
