Man Creates Racetrack For Kid Who Cycles On His Driveway

A man who received multiple alerts from his security camera after a young boy kept cycling on his driveway has gone viral after creating chalk racetracks for him to follow. At the height of lockdown, Dave Phoxe, from Salt Lake City, Utah, received alerts each time the boy in his neighborhood would veer the sidewalk and head up his driveway on his bike. So, Dave, 47, decided he would do something about it - and so armed with a box of chalk drew the outline of a racetrack including hairpin chicanes and signs encouraging riders to slow. As the boy went past, Dave noticed he opted to ride their bike around the track, and so each time wind and rain washed a track away, Dave replaced it with a new one. Before long multiple kids - and even adults riding bikes or pushing strollers - joined in with the fun putting their skills to the test round Dave’s awesome racetracks. After uploading the video to his YouTube channel CanyonChasers, with a playful caption about how he deals with kids playing in his driveway, it quickly went viral with millions of views and thousands of comments praising his work.
