EMMA: Freedom. That’s what bikes said to me. A rush of adrenaline, excitement,but most of all freedom.Escape. I wanted to ride.
ROSS: I wasn’t really living until I was on my RM. The wind in my face, my own weight moving the bike as if we were one. The bike was the only place I could just be me.
DAN: Wanting a motorbike had always been a drea. But now it had gone from a dream to a wish and a wish I was determined to make come true.
KATE: The KX125 and I moved forward – together. There was a wonderful, satisfying roar bellying up from the machine. It was fantastic.
LUKE: Riding a dirt bike is better than anything else on Earth. No two rides are ever the same – there’ll always be a challenge!
There used to be bush all around Naringalong, but now there’s a housing estate and hardly anywhere to ride. For the kids near the new estate it is a summer of dirtbikes and discovery. Discovering that if you work at something hard enough – anything can happen. For Emma, Ross, Dan, Kate and Luke it is also the beginning of a new understanding: of friendship, family and … freedom.
