My three kids started racing BMX in order to compete at the individual level rather than only on a team. We are a football family. As beginners to BMX they rarely pull off a win and leave the track discouraged. I decided to join them in the BMX world for the purpose of illustrating how to lose with dignity, learn from the experience, work to improve and move forward.
