Heyy Everyone!

So I just got back home from the Skip's Promotions Amateur National Hillclimb, round 1! I had a blast over there! We got there Thursday afternoon! I rode with my friends Kelly and Kasey Slick, then hung out with them and my friends Matt and brandon! Friday and Saturday I practiced and got ready for Sunday! The competition hills all had jumps at the start, they gave us more of a challenge! I ended up taking 1st overall in the girls 16 & under 85cc "B" division! I am stoked! I didn't make it over the hill but I got to 399 my first run and 303 my second run! I did the best I could and gave it my all, I just wasn't able to make it over the top this time. I will be ready for May Round 2! I'm feeling very confident about this year! I'm glad I took first! I also want to thank all my friends, family, and sponsors: Team Dirty Girls, Steel Mx, and EVS! Thank you for all your support!

Alright everyone!

So, there's only 3 weeks until the first round of the hillclimb series! I have been practicing a lot this winter and I feel very very confident about this year! I can't wait for the season to start! I will hopefully be going out for more practice this weekend! I'll probably be going out every weekend to practice until the actually competition! I have spring break the week of the hillclimb, so I will be spending most of my spring break week up at Carnegie practicing all week on my starts and climbing! I will keep filling you guys in on how everything is going until the actual hillclimb, then I will let you all know how I end up doing! I am also going to get a check up on my knee sometime this week because it's been bothing me a lot lately and so I want to get it checked to make sure everything is ok with it, rather than just leaving it and something be wrong. BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY! haha. ALright, well take care everyone & ride safe!
