We finally got Chappy to a beginner clinic that morning and signed him up to race that night. In Heat 1 he crashes with Jeremy by taking out his rear wheel. Sorry about that. They are now friends and hang out at and away from the track. He's able to recover and collect himself for heat #2 and make it to the Main. At the main he gets a good start and when it comes to 5N, the start is everything. He's able to hold off Brodie at the line to capture a 3rd place and his first podium.

BMX Registration Day is an event where racing is free and it's an opportunity to get on the track and see what BMX is all about. Chappy won the Flag Lap to kickoff the evening. Only four kiddos in the 5 and under Novice Group. Chappy coasted to a victory in his first heat as well as the main. We're hoping once the BMX Racing League (beginner league) ends, more 5 and unders will flood into this group.

Another Wednesday night meant more racing at Winnebagoland BMX in Oshkosh Wisconsin. While Chappy had to race 6 year old Intermediates again, we know it could be worse as other 5i's have been placed in 7 or 8 Intermediate groups where they get crushed.
Learning from last week, we moved towards focusing on one thing we can control: Lap Times. Last week Chappy would get frustrated and slow down when he knew he was going to lose. This week, he used the kids as something to chase down. On the first heat of the night he got a Personal Best of 50.3 Seconds. Now that he as specific goal thats attainable, he can work towards getting a faster lap time.

Last Saturday for the indoor season at Rad Canyon BMX. It's been an amazing first season for Chappy and we're super proud of his improvement and drive to get better. He made it to a packed main with 13 kids in class. It's so great to see so many kids in his class because it makes for some great competition. We're still working on being aggressive, but he pedaled hard at came our with 5th place.
