Awesome. My daughter is now 11 days old. Any tips for making her into a racer? :banana:;)

Show her Breaking Away and American Flyers for entertainment and tell her to practice wheel changes until she is as good at it as Rae.

Triplets of Belleville too.

For the question about how to get her to ride..... make it fun! And, it helps to have a Mom who raced as well as a Dad, I guess. Mom won the Mt Washington Hill Climb one year, raced nationals,coors, etc. Some cred there... Though we never pushed anything.

In the race tonight, she missed the break, and with that gap, probably held her fire and started thinking ahead to the next race. It's a long season, and NYC is in a week or two. Such fun to see her in the pack, though, just flying along. Joy.

Thanks for all the thoughts and moral support!
