**THE CHILDS VIEW**

The second the school bus doors hiss open on Friday, the "real world" starts to fade. I don’t run inside for homework; I run toward the driveway where our truck is already hooked up to our old camper toy hauler. Everyone at the track knows our rig—it’s faded and has seen a thousand miles, but it’s our home on wheels. Inside the house, it’s a hurricane. My mom is a stay-at-home mom, but on Fridays, she’s a logistics genius, stretching the budget to fill the cooler while my dad is out at the camper, exhausted from a fifty-hour work week. I hear the sharp arguments through the walls—the snapped words about gas money, entry fees, or a missing tool. It’s hectic, and it’s heavy, and I know they’re only on edge because they’re giving me every last bit of themselves just so I can line up.But the moment we pull into the track, that weight lifts. Before my dad even gets the truck into park, my track brothers are running alongside the windows, banging on the doors to get me out to play before the ramp even drops. They don't care that our camper isn't new; they just know I'm finally there. That’s the "Moto Family." We’re a tribe that shares everything—food, shade, and secrets that only kids who live in the dirt understand. We spend our nights under the awning, laughing until our lungs ache, building a bond that makes us more like brothers than friends.The racing itself is a raw rollercoaster. I’ve felt the incredible high of a perfect moto—the rush of the holeshot, the bike dancing under me, and the world turning into a blur of blue sky and perfect ruts. I’ve seen my dad hanging over the fence, screaming his head off, and my mom jumping for joy as I take the checkers. In those moments, the sacrifice feels small because the victory feels so massive. But I’ve also felt the grit of the lows. I’ve been at the bottom of a pile-up, tasting dirt and blinking back tears while the pack disappears. I’ve felt the sting of a bike failure on the last lap, watching the podium slip away while I push my machine back to the pits in tears. I’ve seen a neighbor from three trailers down walk over with a spare lever just to keep us in the fight, because they know that for us, every lap is a victory over the odds.Sunday night is the quietest time of all. We’re winching the bike back into the hauler, and my body is a roadmap of bruises and track dust. My mom is tired, and my dad is already thinking about the Monday morning shift he needs to work to pay for the parts I bent. We’re leaving the track tired, broke, and sore—but we’re leaving as one. We do this because motocross isn’t just a sport; it’s the fire that keeps us alive. We’ve traded "normal" lives for the smell of race gas and a family that never quits. We load up that old hauler with empty pockets but a soul that's on fire, because I’d rather be the kid in the dusty rig fighting through the mud with my family than a kid who stayed clean, comfortable, and never learned how to fly.

So many of you may have seen my son, Chase, with my old camera in his hands at Big Diamond and Broome Tioga. 📸

I have culled his images down (a lot were blurry, but a lot of good ones too!) but hey, he’s learning!

He asked me to put his photos into their own albums and if he gets any sales through them, it will go directly to his bank account!

Comment below to let him know what you think! 🖤
