Lol I didn't even win, and I've got 2 Honda 50's and a few other big bikes
It's thrill of the win and pushing the bike through the crowd I wanted
Edit* I didn't realize how poorly I worded that first post saying I had won lol

My 6 year old loves to negotiate, he negotiates everything and tries to get a little more. I told him I'd take him to the PNE, whatever rides and junk food he wants but no games, no arguing about playing games I don't want to hear about the games. He talked me into $20 in games, I think he's going to be a litigator.

We went yesterday.
Won a red dirt bike from the baseball game.
It's a four speed and it gets up to 65km/h.
It's super fun.

House parking varies. It ranges from $10-$25.

Last time I went to the PNE was about 10yrs ago and we went in the ex's shitty ass car that leaked oil. We parked in this asian womans garage and told her about the leak but she didn't care at all. Got back to the car huge oil stain on the driveway and we drove off lol

I went yesterday, we just parked far enough south on Lillooet that we were past the "residential only" signs. I don't mind walking, and we parked for free.
Those BBQ stands

Still can't wait to try it tho.
