Dirt crits

Whilst chatting to a guy I met at the BMX track, I found out that during the daylight savings time of the year they have kids mountain bike races on at Stromlo on a Thursday evening, called dirt crits. I took all the boys down there last week to try it out. Although being a little chilly and the boys having a couple of stacks before the races had begun they had a good time. Sam did the under 6 race with me running behind and came second (out of about 10)! and William took part in the under 11's. He of course had a great time as they did a loop of a lower section of single tracks and came 5th in his group. 

Being free for under 12's it could be a regular thing for us, especially as it starts to get warmer. You have also gotta love the atmosphere surrounding cycle meets and races, great family day outs and activities to share.

Will off and racing!
