Bike Race at Ojo de Liebre

Just a couple of my favorite shots. The little ones always grab my attention.



Donīt know if the bike or the runner won this side race



Maybe next year the training wheels will be gone



Valentin came in last in the 5 and 6 year old race in Vizcaino last August and he cried. With this look, I bet you can guess he was not going to be last again.



Valentin came in first with the President of the Bike Team, Aurelio and his wife, Lupita running along side near the finish line.



And two of the outstanding young teens. A couple of you will recognize Tomas from San Roque. He keeps taking first place, and his friend Okimi came in second.



It is such a fun activity for everyone.

Oh my Diane, some of those are the tiniest bike racers ever I've seen - they're so cute! And everyone looks good in uniform.:spingrin::tumble::spingrin:

Thanks for sharing the adventure. It's obvious why you enjoy this group so much.

There is going to be a league race here in Bahia Asuncion on April 13th---that is unless they change the date again! It has been changed twice.

If anyone is in the area, don't miss it. We have some good mountains here. The tiny ones don't climb the moutain, however. :lol:

The course here is, if I remember correctly, about 14K and the older ones do it twice.

We hope to be here for it.
