The Aces were almost out in force:
The Points Ho is wore out with travel/Job/flu/bike is beat up and falling apart! Mid way into race i got a flat and just gave up! I was supposed to trail ride with John but screwed up at the loop intersections and ended up on L1 & he was L3 so i can't follow instructions!!!
Racers:
Kent B (1 loop DNF)
John J (3 loops)
Scott H (3 loops)
Eddie (1 LOOP) Awesome rode his first race
Don S (1 loop)
Pit help
The Housers!!
Phil 50/50 and Parker
See you at the next one!
I've never gone to a race, and then get home and think "I wish I would have stayed home today". But sometimes after a race, I read the comments and think "I wish I would have gone". I'm really feeling that today. I'm really bummed I couldn't make it. On Friday I was planning to go, but in the end decided it would be financially prudent to stay home.
I blame Dan May.
Nice Work Guys!!!
Pretty sweet race! 8)
Arrived saturday with a beautiful pool of case oil laying in the trailer >:( but with the help of TBT we got that sucker patched up ;D got to see some cool chinese lanterns that night, never seen 'em in person, pretty cool.
Race started with a not-so-good start, stuck in some serious dust, and was a foot away from smashing into a downed rider, helped him get running again... but of course i like to start the race with a fat crash, and usually brake something mechanicaly, so i figured i'd stick with traditions and launch off a g-out into a rock pile and bend up my pipe and brake lever, certainly was a good one ;) now is when the race usually starts for me. Went 2-3-1 and was very happy with my decision. got into the groove and did pretty dang well. after i finished i was pleasantly suprised to see a handful of yellow bars behind me. Ended up 17 minutes behind John with only a year and a half of riding experience. I love desert racing!
See yall at the gp 8)
Chinese lanterns?
