I was trying to sneak this pic but she caught my at the last second lol.
Shes had a pw, an sx mini, an sx, and lately her ttr110.. been wanting to race for the last year or so but no local classes for the ttr.. a southern ohio buckeye series has a girls 7-11 65 class. Shes got some practice ahead of her but she took to my klx140 clutch in minutes, so i think shell be ok on this soon enough!
Congratulations. Whether she becomes a racer or not, this will be a valuable experience and confidence builder. Both of my daughters drive standard transmission cars and both took to mountain biking easily. Really rewarding raising confident young women, good job!

Heres a pic from last fall one day on her ttr when she was playing in the yard... Lol
Growing like a weed and need some size 5 boots next.
I wont push this kid to do anything she doesn't want to with bikes. Its all her idea, i just support it. I dont care if she rolls around in last place everywhere as long as she's happy. However, i wont let her do stuff thats detrimental to her safety, which is why i haven't let her race this last year. Too big for a 50, (was) to small for a 65. Class structure was challenging for safety reasons as she's not yet a big jumper (ttr kinda didn't allow it and 50 was too little). This bike fits her really well, so we'll see!
That picture is awesome. So is the chicken target practice for the sling shot? Don’t let it get caught in the chain!
That kid is living the life!
She loves her chickens. Sling shots for the hawks that try to kill her chickens. Lol
I pulled the sling shot just after this pic and lectured her.
Haha thats great stuff! my granddaughter is 10 she was riding an xr70 last weekend, I finally had to make her stop it was getting so hot! she won't forget no matter what path she takes. Congrats.
As a father of 2 girls who raced, bravo. Just riding teaches so many life lessons. Best times ever too.
Oldest raced more and harder. Had some injuries. Now she is in PA school with a goal of being an orthopedic surgeon.
Youngest gave it up for chickens and critters pretty early on.
My wife would be all about toting chickens around on a bike carrying a slingshot!
Edit: I showed her the picture and she said your daughter is her new hero.
Great job, Meister. My little girl was on a TT-R110 and then an RM85. She's now in college majoring in biochemistry, and I like to think it's party because of the "I can do anything" attitude I gave her via motorcycling. (2-Stroke exhaust didn't hurt, either.)
Wholesome
That pic should go in the great mx pic thread! That is awesome!!!!
Great Job Dad! That is the exact route Dad took with my Sis, albeit decades ago, so she started on a KX 60, then 80. She went on to finish college as a related field major (Chemistry), with a Masters, the proceeded to get another Masters in Physics. (Yes I am the village idiot in our childhood home....) God Bless that little girl, you are doing fantastic!
Looks like you have an RM80 that either belongs to or belonged to Dave B.
Oh, the chicken/slingshot picture is a classic shot!!
Great bike, greater shirt.
Pit Row
Her new bike was Daves nephews. That yellow one is Daves daughters. Easiest bike buy ever since hes only 15 minutes from me. Lol
Awesome!
First ride in the yard. Took right off. Just gotta work on grabbing gears. Few times she got frustrated but we worked through it and before you know it she was making this tight left hand over some roots..
That picture gets my vote - Best picture of the year!
