Cool pic from my early days
While over at Mom & Dads the other night I ran across this great picture of me & Chad.
It is kinda hard to see in the pics but Chad is sitting in front of me on my Suzuki JR50.
I am 4 years old and Chad is 17 months old ! Gotta love our riding gear.

Wow Zack, you were a good rider @ 4, good enough to ride ur little bro around, and I thought I was cool riding a 2 wheel bicycle without training wheels @ 4yrs. old...

OMG what a riot !! Very cool pics.
I wish I had a bike like that when I was 4.
My first bike was an orange 1972 Honda Mini Trail Z50-A. The first year for a rear suspension on them.  I think I was 10 or so...? Wish I had some pics

Very cool pics! My older brother sold me his XL70 when I turned 8. He bought an XL125. Those were the days.

Pic of my son when he was 8, first time down the track. I had to hold the bike because his legs were to short to sit up straight at the line. He had a .508 light on his first pass! My brother is in the other lane. Miss those days, he's 27 and an engineer for Schlumberger in Houston so we haven't been to the track together in a long time.

Thanks for posting the pictures Zack, most of all..........thanks for the memories.
When Zack got his m/c license on his 14th birthday he continued doubling Chad every week-end thru Deals Gap, he carried his brother more than his mom did!
Happy Birthday Zack, it's been a great ride.

Oh yeah Shane- I wish it was a GN, it was a Nissan 200SX.
BTW: Zack got the new JR50 at 3 1/2, I told him I'd buy him one when he no longer needed training wheels for his bicycle. He crashed and burned alot but was riding a bike everywhere with no training wheels when he was just past 3.
