How did you do today?

3rd on the motorcycle and 4th on the sidecar. 

There was 3 different classes of motorcycles racing at the same time and I my class only 3 of finished the race. I crossed the line only 3 seconds behind 2nd place and I was 4 seconds faster per lap than last year. I'm happy with that. 

In the sidecar race we had a little issue with the motor that it was over heating during the race and that slowed us down a little bit. In the first lap we were in 2nd place. Then we dropped to 3rd and at the end we were in 4th. There were a few sidecar rigs behind us so we were not in last place and I was happy about that. I'm hoping I have the problem worked out so that we can run a little better on Sunday and finish on the podium.

You should have unplugged it from the warmer!  :P

Good luck today! It all looks like a great way to spend a weekend.

Nothing tops off a family weekend like a trip to the emergency room. 

The boy was having a fantastic race and was in 2nd place when he hit a slick pitch on the track where a motorcycle crashed earlier in the day.

He still in the emergency room getting stitches so I still don't know how bad. 

The bike is is in ruff shape

Young bones are amazing. I can still do a lot of the things I used to do but my bones can’t take it. I hate broken bones.

When we were at the race track a guy  ask me about how I liked the Avon Tyres that we are using on the sidecar. A  little while  later a lady was taking pictures of the sidecar and asking questions.

My son informed me that we are on the Avon Instagram page.
