Our 5 year old grandson did not join his dad & gradfather because he just got the training wheels off his cycle so probably will not be road ready for a year or so.

I wish my dad was here so I could ride with him. We live at opposite ends of the US - he's in Florida and I'm in Alaska. Boo! I love the mix of posts. They are all inspiring and they all make me proud to be a fan of Fatty and surrounded by such amazing people. What a sweet post! I wish my dad was here so I could ride with him.

Now you're passing on the legacy. and you're inspiring others with your blog. Very cool ~ thanks for sharing! It’s neat to read about how it all began, inspired and led by your dad.

He raced until he was about 40 and then started up again when he was 75! Still trains daily and is planning on making his second trip to the Masters World Track Championship later this year. Nothing motivates you more to get riding than your 75-year-old father telling you he's doing two-a-day workouts! I got into riding because of my Dad too.
