Head for the Hills

Head for the Hills is an annual dirt bike, 4-wheeler, and off road truck race that is held at Stoneybrook. Dave was given a dirt bike to use (which has been his to "look after" while we are here) and was very excited to compete in a 60 mile race through the mountains. He had never experienced something so intense in his life!  There were three different races: childrens, intermediate, and extreme. Dave chose the extreme and I think he paid for it later ;) It was a really fun weekend; the only downer was that our house is about 20 meters from the starting line and in the middle of the campers, etc. We didn't sleep much, but it was worth it!

These trucks were doing their best to slide through the mud.

And he's off!

Before the big day.

After the big day! He was so covered in mud and dust I barely recognized him. He was more than a little sore.

This is some of what he rode through.

We both saw a lot of steep heights that day. Beautiful

This is the vehicle I rode in going up the mountains to meet Davy half way. It was a very scary drive!
