Rhino Rally

Last weekend Riley & I went down to St. George to watch a friend of ours (Shawn) race in the Rhino Rally! Friday night we got down there checked into our condo & went to meet Shawn & his friends for dinner. Then Saturday was the race, so we spent most of the day there! It was cool to see! Here's Shawn in his Van that he uses to transport his bike.
This isn't the best picture, but way off in the back is PIT ROW. It's a very long line of trailers that the bikes ride up in the middle of the race to refuel and do what ever else is needed to their bikes!

Shawn's Little brother & friend Carson & Riley, waiting for the race to start!
This is Shawn as he finishes in 4th out of 300 riders! It was really fun for Riley & I to go watch this. Riley really wants to start racing! (I know, I know) But like he says in 2 years he'll be able to ride with the 30 & older class, not with these young bucks like Shawn!!!! Riley's also hoping our kids will want to do this when they get old enough, like 4 or 5!!!!!

After the race on Saturday we went back to the Condo and went Swimming. It was so nice there! Then we went & met Shawn & his family at the reward ceremony & then out to dinner! Sunday Riley got up and went for a ride, I slept in! Then we headed home! It was a fun quick getaway! Thanks Shawn for letting us come watch! Thanks Mom & Dad for letting us stay in the condo!!!!
