Where to start....it started wrong, it ended wrong, and it was never right!
First things first, I want to thank Billy and the rest of the 2up organization. They did a great job the entire day from grooming the track to getting the Races off smoothly. They were able to get off many practices and still do 2 motos for 10 classes. I thought it was a great organization. I truly believe of they keep doing these races try will get a large increase of riders! So all you east coast guys better start showing up! It's a great time.
Now about my day. My first practice I took my mod bike out and started getting used to the track. I immediately noticed my gearing was way off since I was revving out 3rd gear in the turns and on the Strait always I was beyond pinned lol. I felt pretty good and felt like my speed was where it needed to be. My second practice I went out and was starting to push. I crashed and fell into some mud from where they just watered the track. I went around a two turns and was 3rd gear tapped down this strait away and when I started breaking into the turn I noticed my back break was not there and I was already to hard on the front break and knifed the front and kart wheeled down and into the berm. Hit my head and was real dizzy getting on bike. Lol but I damaged my bars and triple clamps. So my mod bike was done. My next practice I went out and rode my stocker around.
Finally the races. I was in the first moto of the day which was 12" Vegas stock. I rode my bone stock 110. I got a great start but was immediately out powered after the first turn. Then after the first lap my bike started bogging and could not finish. And that is where my day ended
I do want to say even with all of my misfortune I had a great time and really enjoyed the people at the races and was glad to be behind a gate again. Thanks Billy again for a great day of riding an I can't wait to do it again next time. So I thank you for taking time to read this and hofally you will decide to come out to the next race/ride day
i told my girl to try and get pics but all she got was a couple little clips of me at the finish line. i was #420 on the black plastic and blue frame crf 50. ran in the 88 class, lost but dont care had a blast cant wait for next time!
That is good. I finished last too. I was running the number 94 bike with gray and yellow gear on. I wrecked hard in practice and my other bike broke first race. That's good. I'm sure u will do better next time.
thanks 943,420 , we need more guys like u to show for sure ,, most of the 2up team was missing ,so next round will be better for sure ,, thanks again ,,2up
I had a lot of fun. Wish I could of done better or finished a race but that is just the name of the game lol. Some times your fast some times you just hit the ground fast lol.
