40th fastest 250F pro rider at Hangtown! Well, almost. My helper and long time friend Josh Brown gave it a go in the 250 class at Hangtown after nearly a year off of racing and came in at 40th in the qualifying times. However, they only took 38 directly to the show and then a LCQ for the final two spots. Of course we missed that for a bunch of reasons. A great time and I want to thank all of my companies that helped and especially Keith at JLAW and TokyoMods. Oh also that tough looking mechanic.
Josh is going to head to Texas and try one more time along with his Friend Craig. Good luck!

This weekend was the 250/450 Glen Helen National. The event was incredible and it is amazing to watch up close the top riders in the world ride the most gnarly track on earth. On TV you can’t comprehend what these guys do on the track Jody designed. We were all tired from doing banners and watching races all day. Here many of the crew rest up before the next round of motos. I would really like to thank Bud and wish him and his family the best as they put on a fine race only weeks after terrible family tragedy. Bud does not “have to” put on this race but we are all grateful that there is a So Cal National and that it is at Glen Helen. Lori as always it was great– Thanks and thanks to all of my crew-
It was also wonderful to be at home and Church on Sunday!

Resting

The AMA Nationals Start this Saturday at Glen Helen and Tuesday they were in full swing getting ready, the National track is incredible! Big jumps and huge hills.

Tuesday of the National

Even with a down economy Milestone MX in Riverside CA, is getting big numbers for their practices. They have very consistent prep and keep things watered nicely. The Main track is a bit gnarly for my taste right now however, the vet track is really good to burn some laps on. The location is great for a ton or riders in the heart of the IE. The horses along the trackside add to the experience Check it out-
