--9/22/07: Dew Tour Results
Round three of the UCI Supercross has come to an end, but never really started. Racing was cancled due to rain so they ended up using the time trials as the finishes. It gives the guys who qualify well a little break but it isn't racing. Qualifying was all so close, 10-45 were all within about two bike lengths at the finish line, which isn't much at all. It started raining again when motos started and by the time the sixth moto of the first round went, which was mine, the hill was slippppppery. I came out and got my second pedal around good but after that every downward pedal motion my back tire just spun and went no where. Jason Rogers was to my left and he said when he hit the bottom of the hill his back tire slid and shot him to the right. My front tire buzzed his pants in the air and I thought I was for sure going to die. I landed and had to skid to keep from falling over his back tire and then turned right to stop thinking no one else was over there but Michael Robinson came from the inside to outside behind everyone and had to jump off the track, and his bike to keep from hitting me. His crash was pretty bad, I stopped in the last turn after getting back on it incase people crashed and he was alright, not sure how though. They didn't even run motos seven or eight, just cancled it right there. Not too much more to update from racing, nothing really happened apart from 45 minutes of practice which was really windy and hardly anyone would go down the hill in it.
Here are some pics from the ogio party the other night and the first days trip to the track. - JB
