    My son's school is doing a talent show next week, but his talent isn't indoor friendly so they said we could make a video.



    The music is kind of lame, but I needed something that was OK to play to an elementary school audience and I got sick of clicking through tracks on Free Music Archive pretty fast.

    Thanks. For an eight year-old he can definitely ride a bike. Actually, there's about a year's worth of stuff in there and he was seven in a lot of it. I'm definitely proud, though also a bit terrified sometimes. It sure is fun as hell going riding together these days. I never, ever imagined he'd be riding this well at this age.

    X-post for those who don't read Sprockets. He's now 11, and the bikes skills have been turned up to 11.






    No slouch on foot, either. Did a 3,000' vert 30% grade hike last weekend in 3 hours like it was no thing, ran most of the descent.

    I was just scrolling through this thread and realized the little girls in Tech Tonics post here are now the ones he is referring in the College Choices thread. Time moves so, so very quickly.
    Charlie, here comes the deuce. And when you speak of me, speak well.

    Saw one of mine on the previous page and brought back good memories.

    It makes perfect sense...until you think about it.

    I suspect there's logic behind the madness, but I'm too dumb to see it.

    I have no clue what I'm doing with videos or editing. Just raw footage of some sick singletrack.

    Her older sister near the top of the skin track.

    It’s unreal to me that my 17yo is looking at colleges and this chapter of my life will end someday soon. Both heartbreaking and exciting.

    Enjoy the adventure, dads (and moms). It doesn’t last forever.

    Circle of life. Babies that shit themselves grow up and have to eventually deal with parents that shit themselves. Hopefully not for a long while.

    Congratulations dad! Thanks for starting the thread, it's been an inspiration. I still remember when you first started this thread we were about to have our second daughter and I thought, "wow, if this guy can raise two kick-ass daughters maybe I can too." I'm sure I don't always hit the mark but I haven't gotten too many complaints just yet.

    Bumping this thread I started 10 years ago as my oldest daughter is off to Colorado College. (See the “college selection” thread for my rambling thoughts on that process). But this is a stoke thread:
