Since then, we have traveled on bike to almost everywhere in Ottawa. Until one day we went to one of the local dirt tracks around our houses. We met a few people there, who were about 20 years of age. They blazed the track with precision and speed, without ever falling of slowing down. My friend and I continued to watch them, till they invited us to a race on the track. We were sure we’d lose but they said they didn’t care. So we agreed and failed bitterly. Ryan and I got to know them well enough for them to teach us some biking tips.
