What my home means to me. My favorite part of my home is my motorcycle track in my backyard, because I can ride my motorcycle on it. The track is in the middle of my backyard and it goes from my house to the bottom of the hill. The track is shaped like an 8 and is made of dirt. It also has a tree in the middle of it. I like to ride my motorcycle and go really fast off the jump. All my relatives and friends come and ride with me. I like the track because it allows our family to spend a lot of time together and that is most important to me.
