any bump went straight to my lower back and my butt felt raw. i was looking for a reason to stop and stretch, didn't have to be a good reason either. <br /><br />the long straight through the woods became foggy at dark and was extremely dangerous(for me at least). i knew at one point there was a qua...

hopped back on the bike and tried to start it. wouldn't start... sometimes it'd fire but as soon as you gave it gas it'd die. i tried many times and was worried about killing the battery. finally i pushed it across the pits with the help of a stranger and was gonna jump start it, figuring more juice...

you wouldn't think that pulling up your pants would matter much but i felt like a new person! monkey butt was becoming a concern but it was put on hold for a few minutes. these goggles have a clear lens where as my others have a red lens. red works fine in daylight but as i found out... it sucks whe...

i was riding loose and feeling pretty good. i tried to keep a steady pace going, not real fast but not real slow, so i wouldn't get tired too fast. after the first couple laps the riders really cleared out. i was riding a good portion of the lap without seeing anyone. which was good cause noone was ...

being that the pits area was so messy, i decided to let everyone go rather than get showered with the mud and water that was everywhere. <br /><br />the gun went off and everyone sprinted to their machines. there was 44 machines all headed into the first turn, one 450R still kicking on the line and ...

about 4pm the skies open up with some pretty heavy rain and a few rumbles of thunder. i was contemplating on whether to wait a few laps before heading out(let everyone else make a path through the muck) or try getting a good start and let the carnidge happen behind me...Rick said the rain might be a...
