Thanks for watching.  Hey,  I did not know that you rode dirt bikes before.  Please do tell.  I would like to know more about your exploits on two wheels in the dirt.

I am going riding tomorrow,  with my new 2017 KTM 20 Freeride, at a new place where my riding club AMSA  (Austin Motosports Association) has created a new trail.  I am going to make a video of my ride,  and I might post it here.  Cheers

Thanks for watching,  and you are welcome.  If you liked this video,  then  I think you might enjoy scrolling down to some previous videos here,  posted before your comeback to Blogit.  There are some truly epic videos here.  I find that watching a great short video,  with a lot of views on Youtube  (let us say, at least 100,000 views or more)  is a marvelous escape from my problems of the moment,  and also very educational as to what other folks in the world are doing,  that is probably worth watching.  Cheers

Absolutely thrilling! Reminded me of my dirt-track motorcycling, but they anyday far excel my now gone-off skills Cheers.

"What if they don't make it".......  I understand that very well,  it is not just a mother's response.  It is a risk assessment that I perform every time I do something risky.  Some people just blow it off,  and go for it,  without making that risk assessment,  and they end up paying a horrible price......  or,  they do succeed and become champions.  I have always listened to that wise, motherly voice in my head that said  "What if I don't make it".  So I never became a champion,  but oh well,  I had my fun...... and I didn't end up in the hospital from my fun,  ever.  Cheers

Yes,  they have a lot more talent than I ever had,  even at their age.......  but even with their talent and skills,  I would not have taken some of these risks.  Perhaps that is why I did not become a professional motorcycle racer.  The risk was too great,  even though I did have the talent.

The mother in me just won't lie down and keep quiet. All i could think was 'what if he.she doesn't make it." but good for you for realizing your dreams.

The amount of talent that they possess is incredible.
