Today, like we've done before a few times, we loaded up all the bicycles and took them to bridge at 4th and Flint, northeast of the Ranching Heritage Center. Parking in the large lot at the Texas Tech Administrative Support Center, we unloaded the bikes and headed for the entrance to the bridge. There were a few other people walking and riding along, but mostly it was wide open for us to play.
It was so steep to get up, that made it really hard. The turns on the steep part, make it easy for you to fall down. My brother and sister crashed twice today, but so did I last time we rode over the bridge. There are barrels on the bottom of the turns that look like they are made out of concrete. They are pointy on top too, just watch out for them.
Whenever you get to the top, just go straight, but not too fast because the big ramp is coming up on the otherside. Whenever you see a car coming, it's a little wierd - it feels like you might get smashed. It looks like the big trucks touch the bottom of the bridge. You can even feel it on your feet!
Going down it's really easy for you to fall off your bike. Don't pull the breaks too hard or you could go flying like a monkey. If you don't go too fast down, you won't get hurt. Going as fast as you can, but still being safe is the best part. It's super fun!

For the price, we had a lot of fun. We were on our bikes and we were outside - and going fast! I can't wait until we go again. With the rest of the summer left to play, I bet we'll get to go again soon.
