The Girls race Debut!

As the title says, the girls made there snowmachine racing debut this weekend. The best part of the whole deal is that they are both sore today. Now as a father I shouldn't be happy that they are both sore, but they both said they now understand why I get around a little slow for a few days after a race. WOW, didn't think they would ever understand anything. Ashley was suppose to work, but at the last moment she was able to get off. Because we didn't expect her to be able to race she had to race the 250 in the 340 class. She said she didn't mind, she just wanted to run. She finished fourth and I am very proud of her. I got some good pictures of her. Krista actually got to race in the 250 class and she finished 3rd. We got some pictures of her too. I am so proud of both of them. Just getting out there to race is a big accomplishment. Now Ashley has rode a snowmachine a few times and Krista has only rode by herself once or twice. Riding a vintage sled is nothing like riding the new ones, first off there is hardly any suspension and a skinnier ski stance. This makes it easier to tip over and alot harder to ride. So I am really proud of them.
