Another bike race

 It was take your kid mountain biking last weekend!  We had a great time and it culminated with a bike race.  Remick missed his age group's race, and joined the 6 & 7 year olds.  Makili was so proud that he won his heat, BUT the kid who was originally in first fell off of his bike.  It was a sweet moment in the car when Makili sadly admitted, "maybe I should have stopped and helped him."  (I credit Lightning McQueen with that sentiment.)  In the finals for his age group he won third, won a bike light, and got to be on the "podium!"  He was so excited!
