it rained last night so the track was wet in the morning. there was a little delay but only like 15 minutes. It was cloudy then all day, but once the sun came out, and it got EXTREMELY hot, the track dried up real quick...that was about main time.
Well, today was just another one of those sucky races. I seem to be on a roll lately and I need to snap out of it!! I didn't feel like I was riding bad, things just didn't go my way. First main it seemed like I was going to pass this girl until she got weird in front of me and i hit her tire and ended up going over the turn, yet she didn't crash. So that's unlucky. Then second main I was winning and then I pulled up too late for a roller and it bucked me almost over the bars, but then I got the back end back down....it didn't matter though because then I went right off the lip of the next jump all weird and ended up doing a front flip anyway. So that's two crashes in a row. sweet. and then third moto wasn't bad, i was just kind of over it at that point but still got a second so that's not terrible. I just really need to get a win under my belt again and I think that will give me the confidence boost I need to get on a roll again. So wish me luck tomorrow, I'll fill ya in.
Tim Dinger also had a hard crash today, out for tomorrow, so let's hope he gets better soon!
And one more shout out to Alyssa martin...a little girl from Minnesota was playing an innocent game of tug-o-war last night and i was informed today that the rope caught onto her fingers and she lost 4 fingers on her one hand...my prayers are with her.
