What rocked was winning the Rad Bmx Mods & Admin Bike Of The Show Tophy for my Profile Prostyler and watching my 7 year old son Josh racing for the first time on Sunday, it was great to put faces to names and catch up with some people I already new

What sucked was the rain on Sunday and clearing up

My 10 year old raced in 10-14 and had a great time, made the final, youngest in the class, fell off but enjoyed himself

and my 9 year old who won Sunday in 9 & Under raced and won that class 2 years ago against older kids, just chuck him in and let him enjoy the FUN racing that is MK

The reason behind the age ruling is so that it follows BCF rules, there have been some issues over the years regarding people not being in correct age groups so a clear definition was required to avoid any altercations
