This is BMX. This is how it happens, you simply just fall in love with everything and realize just how blessed you are to be able to provide this kind of life for your children!
If you give your child a BMX Bike, they will want to ride. You’ll buy them the best bike and parts you can find, followed by a helmet and race gear.
You look for local tracks to ride at weekends, where you start to socialise with the BMX community... And then life as you know it, will end.
Before you know it, they want to RACE & there will be no more lazy weekends watching tv. You will see more sunrises than you ever thought possible.
Every spare minute of your time will be spent hauling campers, caravans and bikes and enduring a crazy addiction to practice for the race.
Your house may be a mess, and your car will be dirty. All because you gave your child a BMX bike. Your weekends will be spent freezing or burning to death on a fold up chair, under an EZUP tent. And their weekends will be spent gaining confidence and friends, learning new skills and having fun and getting out there.
You will be there the day he or she makes there first holeshot, first podium, first win. And they will make you SO proud.
Other parents will congratulate you, but you feel weird saying thank you because it's not you on the track, it’s your child. It's everything that they did, they achieved.
And right before your eyes, your little boy/girl will be transformed from the baby who zipped around on their balance bike, straight into an expert, sending all the biggest jumps... at speeds that make you nauseous.
When you give your child a BMX bike, you give them more than just something to ride. You give them a sport, a talent, hopes and dreams. Friends, a new family, a place to learn about life, room to grow as a person where they can push their limits, and bravery, and courage, and memories. And they will have ALL of these things, simply because you gave your child a bike.
Because you gave your child a bike, you too will develop new/lifelong friendships, developed solely from the same passion for the sport. You will have a BMX family because you gave your child a BMX bike.
Then one day, many years from today, they will be in their room and a certain trophy will catch their eye. And they will pick it up and realise instantly that when you gave your child a bike, you also gave them a childhood that they would never forget, and at that point, you’ll realize that everything you gave up along the way and sacrificed, was totally worth it…
Its more than just a sport, just a hobbie. Its a way of life, all because you gave your child a BMX bike🏆 🏁
