BIG shout out to the ANDOVER BMX crew...WOO WOO !!
What a great time was had by all,
I turned up with my bike and camera intending to take a few shots and have a play
But ended up racing some how ....
I haven't raced a bmx since I was 11 so lining up on the gate for my first moto felt brilliant..
I happened to be in the over 16 which was a lovely complement to a 38 year old .
My results where last place , second to last , dnf... and a second to last ..
I'm well chuffed and reckon with a bit more practise I'll be able to finish them all in the future..
Any road what a great bunch of people and fantastic fun..
See you all again soon..
And the number 13 paper plate is staying put :4_17_5:
