One day when I was a young fella, mum, dad and my brother went to Ravenswood to race my motorbike. I had a Honda CC 50. Often when I hop on my motorbike, I get a weird feeling in my stomach. While we were pulling up, I was thinking about what my dad had taught me: how to change gears and how to not fall off. I hopped out of the car and I still had a weird feeling in my stomach. We started unloading the motorbike. Soon enough, it was time to line up. I hopped on my motorbike with all my gear on. I took a deep breath, ‘3, 2, 1, go!’ I zoomed off and we had to do seven laps. I did not know what to feel. It was hard to change gears on the go. I was so fast, time flew by because as soon as I knew it, it was the final lap. After the race, I came back to the car. I had so much fun! Then we went back home. I was so proud of myself.
