McKenna's First Bike Race

As most of you know Todd is very much into cycling these days and we even consider him a cyclist. Recently he competed in his first bike race and when we were searching for his next one we came across a 3-year old 50-yard dash race in Redlands, California. We could not resist and we signed McKenna up for not only the tricycle race but the bicycle race as well. To our surprise McKenna got 3rd place on her tricycle. Boy was Daddy proud. After watching the video I was a little embarrassed at how loud I was screaming but oh well I was proud too and she had a great time. The bicycle race was cute and fun but I think those kids were a little older and McKenna was just strolling along with a smile on her face. In the video she is on the far right with the blue pants.
Daddy telling her to ride to Mommy at the finish line.

Watch her get 3rd. She got a metal.

We stayed to watch the Pro Race that took place later that day. It's crazy fast. If you are interested take a look at the video below.


Check out Addie's hair blowing in the wind the riders create as they pass.

This video is of the second to last lap after they have been riding for 90 minutes and they have begun to sprint. Watch towards the end how a rider almost hits my camera. CRAZY!
