~ RAIN, MUD & SUPERCROSS MAINS ~
The days have been overcast. The clouds today decided to drop some rain and did it ever pour. Most of the mains got thru with out rain but the skys opened up and the track became a slick course. Watching the bikes go off the gate and into the first turn had some not even getting to the turn and others going down there. Not getting a good start in SX at Mini O's can put an end to the quest of first. The track is bad enough but when it rains it is gruesome.
Congrats to Jimmy Evans with his 2 championship finishes. Jimmy took 1st in the +25 and +30 Classes. Totally awesome riding Jimmy.
The motocross practice was canceled because of the rain and will start up in the AM. I love Motocross at the Mini O's. We are hoping that it is dry and sunny.

Update on our other riders. Nick Fratz-Orr had a bad crash during SX practice with another bike coming down on his back. He is very sore and has some nasty marks on his back. Shane Durham has a broken heel and is not able to participate. I must say here that Shane has been very busy. If there was an award for helping others I would give it to Shane. He is busy helping many riders down on the gate. He packs the gate area, placing dirt where it needs to be and stomping it in place. He takes mud out of tires with his fingers, points out the way to get off the gate. I'm sure that he would rather be riding but he is still being very productive with the help that he gives to others. Daniel Lippman will be riding MX, just coming off an enjury, he too has been busy helping Derek Fratz-Orr down at the gate.
Time to rest for tomorrow is MX. I'm sure that our riders will be right at home.
