I learned something about Physics this weekend
This past weekend I learned a little bit about the laws of Physics. I decided to race cruiser and I ended up with three riders that were almost 40years old and my friend Cooper who's a 10 year old like I'm gonna be soon. Anyway, in the first moto the big guys took off. I was a bit worried about trying to pass a huge guy in the first turn so I backed off and ended up 3rd behind the big guys. My dad said, "don't let that big guy bully you. You can beat him to the first turn." So, in the second moto I blasted out of the gate. Dad put 160 mm cranks on my cruiser and they really helped me get out fast. I beat him to the first turn but he stayed high to pass me. I decided to "bump" elbows with him. Well, I think he was kinda shocked that a little kid would move over on him like that. We were half way through turn one, flyin' and I went over. He didn't back off and I bounced off him WHAM!!! It was like I was a pebble and he was the Space Shuttle. I went down hard and bashed my knee. Now I know that I have to wear my THE knee pads, 'cause the SixSixOnes slipped (they're supposed to be worn inside BMX pants). I was wearing shorts and there was blood everywhere. I ran the 3rd moto and he beat me pretty good so I didn't make the main. But it was really fun. Lots of dads were pretty surprised that I did what i did with such a huge guy. But that's racing. Goin' to the track tonight to have some fun. Hope to see you there.
