Personal Narrative Essay On The Experience Of Riding A Bike

Being a rancher 's child can be both a blessing and a curse. It 's a blessing because it creates hard work, ethic, integrity, and good strong values. It 's a curse because you only socialize with animals. We can 't call in sick to work or take a vacation. It is 24/7 for life, we have to keep on working no matter the circumstances because we don 't desert our job. My parents weren 't scared to give me responsibility, they knew I was capable of doing work. Dirt under your fingernails was no big deal and a pair of boots were your best friend. We understood how to have dignity and respect. We find peace by going out in the middle of a pasture and watching the sunset while counting cattle. Ranching teaches us what life is all about. We understand that there will be bumps in the road and that life can get hard, but we see past that at the reward of taking care of something besides ourselves. While being a rancher’s child can be both a blessing and a curse, it 's a wonderful upbringing that I would wish anyone to have. You

Some four years ago on a small loop road, county road 355, hidden somewhere in the weeds was a convolution maze of dirt bike trails. It couldn’t have been but six months since my step brother, Austin and I started riding dirt bikes daily. We were nothing short of motocross eligible teenagers, jumping feet off the ground, sliding every turn, and being so dirty at the end of the day that two showers were necessary. All of these things changed very suddenly in a wreck that changed our lives.

At the beginning of my sophomore year, August 2015, I fractured my left ankle. My second season of cross country had just begun. The whole team had a Saturday practice at Atlanta Memorial Park.

All things in life can be enjoyable but also unexpected. Everyone has their own natural high. My natural high is riding my dirt bike. Even though riding my dirt bike is fun, it can also be very dangerous. It is very important to always wear safety gear while operating an off-road vehicle. Remember to always pay attention to the surroundings.

As said by Louise J. Kaplan, “Adolescence represents an inner emotional upheaval, a struggle between the eternal human wish to cling to the past and the equally powerful wish to get on with the future”. In the story “The bicycle’’, by Jillian Horton, Hannah is going through her adolescent age which brings a lot of emotional changes in her life. Hannah was a very devoted, ignorant and hard working girl in the start of the story. When she was 15 years old she slowly changed and now wanted to be independent and didn 't like to follow the rules anymore. By the end of the story, she broke all the rules and wanted to follow her heart 's desires. In the story “The bicycle’’, by Jillian Horton, Hannah experiences a transition from an ignorant, obedient and disciplined child to a rebelling, disobedient and independent adolescent.

For as long as I can remember, I have always loved horses. My mom tells me "horse" was my first word. I loved horses so much as a kid, that it 's all I talked about. I was never able to actually see a real horse until I was around ten, though, so I did everything in my power to be close to them growing up. I watched horse-themed movies, read books about them, and studied them in every way possible, that way I would be prepared when I met one. Eventually, my Grandfather set me up to take lessons at a local stable, and it has been uphill ever since. I’ve been taking lessons for nine years, and now I teach other kids how to ride! People always ask me though, “Why do you love it so much?”. It’s a crazy and reckless hobby to do what I do with horses,

The one extracurricular activity that has become a main priority in my life is my horses and barrel racing. Riding horses has become a stress reliever and a favorite pass time. It has become not only a sport, but a lifestyle. I began riding when I was only three years old. My mother bought me my very first pony and taught me how to ride. Ever since that day, and many, many horses later, I have been passionate about horses. I began going to local fun shows, where I would show in mainly pleasure classes. It gave me a great foundation of how to ride a horse correctly. I won many awards on my pleasure horse and really enjoyed doing it, but as I got older, I began to have a need for speed. With this being said, I started entering the speed classes. My

The story is about a boy got a new bike he was very excited and proud of himself. His mum told him not to turn the corner.

Love transcends all boundaries, all logic, it is all encompassing, magical and mysterious and everlasting. God designed the human heart to express his love through us and that love is eternal with no beginning or end. We are only on the earth for a short period and the love experienced here on earth will always go on; however, vanity and someone’s world record will not. Who can remember who won this game or that game 10 years ago and who was the MVP? Sports and competition are great for teaching life lessons and developing us as individuals working as a team. However, what really matters in the end is not the sport itself, but the heart. The Miracle League expresses the attributes of love and compassion that can’t be expressed any other way. This league makes dreams come true. Here is a list of what

My palms were sweating. My heart was beating fast and furiously. This was it. My very first upside-down roller coaster ride at age nine in Hershey Park. The Sooper Dooper Looper was so intimidating. It seemed like there were millions of upside-down loops. I was with my friend Katie and the line was long. The long wait only made it worse, leaving time for the panic to build.

I was never interested in tractors until I went to Louisiana last summer. Going to Louisiana was one of the best things that has ever happened to me during my life. Going to Louisiana was so awesome being able to watch and drive enormous diesel tractors and watch my uncle cut rice with a combine(which is a machine that is used to cut rice on a farm. It helped me learn about rice and the machines that farmers use to cut rice. I got to see where the rice is stored after it is cut, my uncle dries out the rice to get all the moisture out before they sell it and take the rice out of the rice bins.

I got my first car the summer between my sophomore and junior year. It was a 2007 Ford Focus SES with a manual transmission. Learning how to drive a stick shift car was not as easy as I had expected it to be. I practiced a few times a week with my dad for the first couple months but could still rarely ever start from a stopped position without the engine dying at least once and the tires spinning a few times. It was very frustrating but one day a few weeks after my I had last practiced I decided to practice on my own by driving around the block while my dad was at work. I practiced starting and stopping more times than I could keep track of but I found myself to be improving much faster than I did when my dad was in the car. Later that day when he got home, I was excited to show him how much I had improved in just one day so we went for a drive around Alki beach. Although the engine still died once in a while, I now felt confident that I could drive pretty much on any types of roads with minimal troubles. Through this experience I realized that

One time I was racing in a little kid motocross race in Corydon Indiana, but I’ve never raced before. I was used to racing four wheelers and I knew this was gonna be a challenge for me. I practiced at home with the little track behind my house. I wasn’t very good nor fast, but I tried to be the fastest. All the racers including me was lined up on the starting line, and we were off like a speeding bullet out of a forty cal. On the first corner my brakes didn’t work and my throttle would stick. I knew I was going to crash big time. Sadly, i ramped over the corner and flew off the dirt bike.
