all dun

Cole did 2 laps this year and passed everyone but the big kid. He is hooked. Josh not so much this year.
Finally the Wors season for 2008 is over. I missed more than a few races with the torn quad but I really didn't miss anything it seemed. This winter I am going to buy a new road bike and do some training in Missouri in march and April and some spring road races. Oh and I will be joining the gym November 1st and going on a strict diet. There will be no Clyde race for me in 2009 I promise. Sheboygan was just OK this year. I really didn't care for the course as much as previous events. It really sucked that the equalizer money was gone before I climbed it on lap one. I did manage to pull out 10 bucks from the holeshot money starting 4 rows back. Man call ups make a huge difference. On the first lap I got passed by Jeff from Hayes and stuck myself to his wheel for the next two laps until the log jump the last time. I came in at a weird angle and landed kkicked out little and the rear tire came lose. Man the disk brake make a lot of noise when not in the right way. I had to stop and fix that right away. Russell's work needs a spoke wrench and some love plus a new set of pads and a rotor. Then I tried to make up some time to catch up to jeff and over short a corner at the river and ended up in the trees not the river amd then ran into the tree in the last turn in the rocky creek bed. That was it I was happy to sit in for 2nd. That was until a day of guy we just happen to pass on the start of lap three came around me just before the bridge. That is me pointing him out to the score keepers. Asking how we passed him on lap 3 and he is finishing all of the sudden. Well it turns out talking to more that a few spectators they 2 guys started in their age group. They where wondering how the 2 guys got that far ahead on the first lap. Well we all filled a protest. The first guy admitted he started in the wrong group and the other guy, who knows but he got 2nd again.
Next post will have a smaller wheeled BMX theme
