Hi guys, I'm back from Green Bay and Philly. I raced at Neeses, SC last Saturday and took a 2nd in the Open Vintage class. BUT then there were only 3 in the class. The third place finisher told me after the race that he got a 3rd place trophy and that I finished next to last. LOL In the 2 months that I have been gone, Neeses was the only racing that I could do as none of the tracks up north were open yet. I had planned to ride Atwater, Wisconsin where I had that bad crash last spring (that 4 letter word, WORK) kept me from it. Gotta support the racing habit somehow.
I am planning to race at Rochester, NH on the half mile in mid June during Laconia Bike Week. There are 2 more races following Rochester at local tracks in the next 2 days after Rochester to make it a 3 race series. flattrack ben and I rode Rochester last June and had a great time. It is a wide cushion track with wide turns and lots of room. I have seen the pros running 4 abreast in the turns there.
Will see you all tomorrow. Its going to be hot in my leathers but I dress for the slide not the ride.
