LTM

LTM was hot on Saturday. Not a huge crowd with the heat and Red Bud coming up, but great racing as always. PBP racers Chuck Nice and Carter Gordon came away with wins.

Sunday's weather was much better. Hare scramble is the toughest sport to photograph in my opinion. The kids early in the morning is very difficult. Low light in the woods with fast moving bikes. I did my best, but not a whole lot of keepers early in the day. The 50's and 65 Beginners had a great course laid out for them.

Big bikes and quads got interesting. LTM decided to lay out an enduro cross log jump. Bikes were about 50/50 on taking it instead of the go around. Quads begged off except for a handful. The approaches were not "quad friendly". I give LTM props for doing this and providing an alternative line for those not experienced or daring enough to try it. The exit jump into the corner wasn't the best positioning though. If they'll find a little better area to place it and provide an alternate route I say go for it. And keep it in the grass track area for quick access by medics if needed (though we hope not!) Racers seemed to enjoy the challenge.

A quick check on lap times found Casey Noblitt running 13 minute laps until the bike blew. Tough luck Casey. You were looking awesome out there. Lee Lankutis was running consistent 10-11 minute laps. FLYING!!

PBP sends out a big "Get well soon" to our Hare racers. At the moment we have 3 on the injured list. And to MX'er Dillon Hall also. Heal fast guys and gal. We miss you on the track!

Hangtime 4th Weekend

Hangtime has changed the schedule for this weekend. Only GP on Sunday. I will be there! Had hoped to do more MX this year at Hangtime and will work on rearranging my schedule to get back there. Looks like I may try and do a D&D race instead. It's tough to change things after my schedule has been set. If the good folks at Read's will allow me I definitely will be back more next season.

Magazine Covers

New magazine covers have been added. You choose the title and text; although we'll be happy to help with those. Please note we cannot use known magazine titles. That would get us in trouble! Available in 8x10 or 16x20. Stop by and see samples at the races.

Working on updating the web site this week. Look for new pictures of PBP Sponsored Riders and main page slide show has been updated. I'm not a web designer, so if things look off check back later and I'll hopefully have it fixed:)

Monday at PBP

Dreaded Monday. Actually this one isn't too bad since I had the weekend off. Normally I'm exhausted and sorting pictures about now. Instead I am working on new stuff this week.

Another batch of trader cards should be arriving from the print lab in a few days. I do apologize for the delay on these. The lab and I are still working out some color issues before I make them available to everyone. Giving my customers the best quality is always top priority. For the truck/buggy racers we're also working on Hero Cards. Basically a larger version of traders used as autograph cards by race drivers for those not familiar with hero cards.

More new stuff is also in the works, but I'll keep it under my hat for now. Have a product you'd like to see us offer? Please let me know and I'll work on it.

What's next? Hare scramble at LTM this Sunday. I might come over Sat. for mx. We'll have to wait and see.
