Charlie has been BMX-ing for probably a year now, and for the first time last night Jeff & I got over to the track to watch him. I had heard such great things about the track – the largest one in the US, I think I’d heard – and sure enough, it was VERY impressive. Here is Charlie during the race. It is a lot of work – he was absolutely wringing wet with sweat when it was over.
With his third place stamps. Apparently these are sort of like S & H green stamps, but you can save and redeem them for prizes at the bike stores in town, and also with the national association, I think he said. We were proud!
