What Goes On

DAY OF TESTING AND GOOD FUN
10/18/09 Went out for a day of testing race bikes and race trucks, very fun and productive day.  Ivan Wong of ibwphoto.com came out and did some awesome documentation of the day, we all really appreciated that.













Tomas Barber,  test session in the 1495 Ranger.                     
Soon to debut in the MDR Superstition Series.                          

DOUBLE VISION NIGHT TEAM RACE

9/12/09  Fun way to get back into the season while its still hot out, was a warm race for sure but great camping weather afterward.  Teamed with a rider who was new to desert, always fun to bring in new folks.  Pit crew did great with all the prep and night ops, good time in the dez, ended up 8th in class.


FULL THROTTLE 110
3/29/09  Good ride, exhausting course.  Always love racing at the DIP.  7th in class, 26th OA.









FIRST RACE BACK IN A LONG TIME, FEELS GOOD

10/10/08 Oh ya it definitely felt good to be back. The C/M No Wimps 250 was a team race with an unorthodox (for D38 hare scrambles) 63mi course. There was a fast fun first half, and a beat you up with brutal whoops second half, so it was a great workout and fun way to get started. We ran my roomate's/teammate's #808, reppin the Hawaii bruddahs. Solid race back with no crashes and a small mechanical (picked up a nail, flat rear), happy with an unofficial 11th OA, 7th Open Class, and a great burn that will definitely help out next race (Oct 19th comin up!).

BLING BLING YO

10/9/08 Buymoto got me set up with some spiffy new stuff for the bike that came in handy for sure this race.  The double rim lock saved my butt with the flat tire due to nail and looks bling with the anodized caps from Sunline that protect the threads/your rim. Gotta love the functional BLING!

What's Gone On

SUMMER SHAKEDOWN, READY FOR WINTER SEASON

9/15/08 Prepping for a re-entry into the District 38 Desert season with some summer MX and occasional early morning dersert and mountain trips.  We'll try and get back up to speed this year and put in a solid season for 2009.  I especially want to thanks Buymoto.com, SixSixOne, and PeopleJar.com for helping me get my gear up to snuff and turning the 450X into a full-blown desert sled.

BACK ON THE HORSE, THIS TIME IT'S A CRF450X

1/31/2008 Rehabbing the knee has gone really well so far, 7 months from surgery and I'm coming back into the full swing of things with mt. biking, scuba diving, and of course --moto! I picked up a 450X a couple months ago and have been riding progressively more aggressively, so far so good and tons of fun! I feel like an old man with an electric start, but hey, it's sweet. New four strokes are kind of like cheating :) after all these years of screamin' out the two strokes.
