Fall Classic

MAORA Fall Classic 2009 wasn't quite the mud fest I was expecting with all the rain last week. Track was a bit rough on Saturday for the short course, but it kept things exciting.
Missed the rollovers again. I'm never in the right spot when those happen.

Sunday's Enduro course had to be shortened because of the mud, but they still managed to find some. Tear offs were necessary, but a glove works too!

Frana tried camouflaging the car with weeds. Doesn't work John; they can still hear you a half mile away.

President's Cup winner for the second year: Mark Lupfer

Until next year......

This was my last weekend at Hangtime for 2009. I sure hope to be back in 2010. It's a great track with good people both racing and behind the scenes.
A little comic relief. He also defies the laws of physics and jumps!

Dust of the good sort was found.

And of course it wouldn't be Hangtime without some air!

Sunday was back to the GP's and some sweet muddy fun. Thanks Mikey for giving me a much overdue mud fix.

Although some did manage to stay clean......

Others didn't fair quite so well.

Thumbs up to you too! Great racing, dude. Give me a holler and I'll always try to holler back.

And help you out of the ruts;)

Aahh.....the sweetest for last. IVORME Vintage! I'm a sucker for an old bike.

9/08/09 LTM Illini Finals

Did ya catch me now?

Keeze and Aaron battled it out all weekend long. I bet they were sleeping in class on Tuesday.

New faces who fly!

I don't care what Michael says......Kirt was stylin' in his old school gear!

Michael Clewley back on the track.

Aaron Thompson got a taste of the 125. Now lets just keep you in front of Keeze.

Cory Deadmond on the gas.

Little guys get air too.

It was a teriffic weekend at Lincoln Trail and all the racers looked great. As of now it was my last MX race there for the season. I may try to get back for Appreciation weekend, but no gaurentees. Hard to believe the season will be winding down soon. Stay well, ride hard, and give Lincoln a belly rub from me.

9/6/09 Hare Scramble

I haven't done very many hares this year; so I'm sure I would get names wrong. How about just some pictures.



Lee Lankutis gets by a somewhat stuck rider.

Clayton Noblitt gets the holeshot.

Clint Pherigo coming down the hill.

Pit crew? Spectators? or Woods Rats? I vote the latter.
