On  Saturday I took my 12 year old son Jake to Aliso for his hardest ride to date.

We went up Colla and down Rocki-It, for a 10.4 mile loop, with 840 feet of climbing. http://www.geoladders.com/show_route.php?route=13

I'm very proud of him for sticking it out, even with the heat!

Here's a few pictures.....

He's not gonna give up

If my kids grow up to be interested in biking then I want to be just like you, Maxwell! That's some great passion to see.

Nice job Jake!

Now don't go letting your friends talk you into climbing Rock-it.  Savages I tell you!

He's a Maxwell allright!

Props to the Maxwells!  Great work Jake and keep up the perfect, "Dad-impressions."

Didn't I see that picture on the Push-a-Kona I ride shirt?  Oh no, that was Darin.
