Excerpt:

EMMA: Freedom. That's what bikes said to me. A rush of adrenalin, excitement, but most of all freedom. Escape. I wanted to ride!

ROSS: I wasn't really living till 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 dream. 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 dirtbike 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.
