And you can't make a mistake when you are reading the Torah, so you have men standing around who will correct you if you are reading it incorrectly.
I've always like roadracing, but you know how it is in a family when you're young. They thought it was a little too dangerous so I started with Trials riding.
All I can tell you really is if you get to the point where someone is telling you that you are not great or not good enough, just follow your heart and don't let anybody crush your dream.
