My 3 year old had his first crash.

[eboos]

Twice in one day actually.

He and I did a little riding yesterday in the park next to my house. It has been a couple of months since he rode, so he needed to remember how to do everything. Since he is not tall enough to put a foot on the ground while sitting on the CRF 50, the bike has training wheels. I was following him on the TTR. First as we were heading to the park, he crashed into the fence because he forgot how to stop. He was ok though, he had everything on.

We then rode around for about an hour or so. Some times I would follow him, some times he would follow me. Well, he took a left hand corner a little too fast, and rolled the bike over. I thought that this was going to be a breaking point and that he would be afraid to continue riding, but when I got to him and checked, he had a big smile on his face. I got the bike back on it's wheels, and we rode for about another half hour. My wife took him and my daughter out on the bikes later in the day.

He took the crash really well.

A frined of mine had his son out on a 50 quad and tipped over. He was ballin really bad. We ran over to check him out. Come to find out he was upset because some gas spill out of the gas cap. Flipped it over got him back on and he had his smile back.

Awesome! I gotta get my nephew one so he can start riding.

at that age they probably just find it fun to crash.

No use crying over spilled gas.

I'm 34, and I still find it fun.

I think he knew that gas was over $4.50 a gallon and thought. "Dad is going to kill me."

this should be moved to race reports

great way to start

do the training wheels get in the way of turning?

[FireboltEric_MA]

Haha..Very Cool... Your more than welcome to ride behind the shed at my house any time you want.

[eboos]

That is really cool of you to offer Eric. We'll have to do that one day. You really need to try my 125 too, it's a crap load of fun.

Kind of. The bike turns differently then it would without training wheels.

I crashed a 50 in some landscaping once at full speed off a makeshift ramp/jump we made. that was fun.
