Did the same, and I will always treasure that as long as I draw breath.  Sadly, it seems as though it was only a couple years ago, but it isn't............  My little racer of 3 on his shiny, new JR50 that Santa brought to him,  now is a Federal Officer of 25.  It goes by sooooo fast.  Enjoy the ride Dad, make it count......  Proud of you

Rad. It's cool that the track name is in the picture, too - that's a good memory.

Doesn't get any better than that. You're going to blink & he'll be an adult so take tons of pics/video & store them on external drives for safe keeping. You'll look back at them often.

Mine's 30 now and this is as close as I can get to him (until he laps me again)...

nothing makes me happier than riding, getting roosted on and roosting my boys.  Except hooking onto a good tuna.... duh

Congrats dad, enjoy it. As others have said it doesn't get much sweeter and it goes by way too fast. But there is quite a feeling when you, that son as an adult and then your tiny grandson all three on the track together!!  

Take lots of pics. It's some I failed to do.  I was always the camera man. Great thread.

Thanks everybody. Everybody says how motocross is a generational pastime, but you really don't know how much until you're in it. Dad and I didn't start racing until I was 13, so we're both experiencing this all for the first time.
