Big Race

Ben the biker won the big race yesterday! It was close, but Ben was able to come in first. I'll post some pictures from during the race.

Everyone in the race was doing something different, whatever they were best at.

The motorcycle rider took the lead at the beginning and kept it for a lot of the race.
The motorcycle rider began to get to fast and when he tried to turn he crashed. Luckily for him, the motorcycle wasn't damaged except for a tire which he had to change. He was able to change it extremely fast, but Ben was still able to get ahead.
The motorcycle caught up pretty quick and Ben had to work really hard to keep from being passed.There were also some jumps that they had to go off.
On the last stretch Ben went as fast as he could and past the finish line less then a second before the motorcycle.

Sea World

Ben recently went to San Diego's Sea World. There are some new shows for Springs nights going on right now. Shamu Rocks was pretty cool, and the sea lions did a funny show making fun of the other shows that are there.

Race coming up

Ben has been getting ready for a big race that is coming up. It is a race of a bunch of different types of transportation (cars and faster aren't allowed). There will be a runner, horseback rider, motorcycle rider, etc. Ben was picked as the biker. He knows he can probably beat most of the contestants, but he needs to train to go against the motorcycle. He has biked faster then a motorcycle before so there is still a chance.
