BMX Bandits.

Today I had some friends come to visit me which was nice, even though I can sense they are grasping the reality of my situation.

Tonight I went to watch my boy race his BMX bike.
My Son turned 9 in October and I got him a really good bike for his birthday, I figured I could help him with that and get involved a bit more easily while I am ill.
I used to race Karts, Moto X and my Car, (its in my blood my Father used to race cars and boats) .
Kids see you do stuff and want to do the same, If I wasn't ill I would have got my boy a Go-Kart, (I have always had a passion to race cars or be an engineer on a race team), but there is too much involved for me, at least with BMX I can still give advice and help out.

I was really into BMX when I was a kid, there were films called RAD and BMX Bandits that were iconic in their time but its gives me so much pleasure to see my boy getting into the culture that I was once into.
