Nationals in Simi Valley

Keeping with the theme of bmx we headed to the HOT valley (80+) so Braedyn could see what a real race was like. Top riders from all over the state showed up. As usual, even with the heat, we had to make Braedyn take forced breaks. He was sweaty from head to toe with all the gear and the heat, but he was still loving every minute. It was an eye opener for me to see how gnarly some of the "parents" could be. The sport is very low key and easy going in SB so I was quite annoyed with some of the over competitive parents of 5 year olds. I mean really they are 5, can't we just let them have fun? Most were fine, but those special few were over the top! A good way to make your kid dislike the sport if you ask me, but nobody did:)


Braedyn is #60.  Usually you can just look for the little dude.
