ON Saturday I raced in 65 JR and took 4th out of 7. Not too bad for the first time racing there.  BUT SUnday I crashed pretty hard in practice and hurt my shoulder so I tried to race my first moto but pulled off after 2 laps - it hurt too much and couldn't hang onto the bike so I DNF on Sunday...I can't wait to go back!!!!

Well I was in Tucson, AZ all last week for vacation.  No riding.........  wished I could have brought my bike.  Regional this weekend - I am not riding probably going to watch.  Hope to practice on Sunday. 

Well, last week was nothing to write about - no racing on the weekend of May 16-17,2009.  Everything got rained out.  BUT this past weekend was great!  Had a class with Bryan White on Friday, racing Nuke #3 at Byron and some practicing at Walnut yesterday (Memorial Day).  Hope to ride this week - rain stay away!

Well, I race my first stadium race this year - at Mendota.  I did ok....not as well as I hoped.  It was a long nite!  Instead of racing at Byron on Sunday - we went to Walnut to practice - it was a good practice day!  Then we went to Joliet last nite to practice too - that was  a good nite of practicing!  More practice this weekend I hope!

I went to Byron on Saturday to qualify in the 65 (7-9) stock.  This was my first race this year.  Not a very good one.  ALOT of fast kids from other states there.  I went back on Sunday to race in the 65 (7-11) modified class but I didn't get to race because my brother crashed really hard in his first race and we had to go to the hopsital.  He's alright - just his back is real sore.  I hope to get some practice in tonite at Joliet and hope for good weather for the weekend!  Will post pics soon!

WELL I think every track in Illinois got rained out this past weekend.  I thought I would have my first RACES of this year BUT no mother nature had to rain on my party!  SO, we packed up and headed out to Indiana - Motoland.  Never been there before - what an awesome track.  Two tracks ALL sand -

TOO bad I only rode a few laps total I kept getting stuck check out the picture of my bike getting stuck in the sand.  I realized you must go REAL FAST!  Hope to race at Byron for the qualifier this weekend and then maybe back to Motoland Sunday!

Went to Walnut on Saturday - what an awesome day & track!  It was a great day for riding!

Hi all I went practicing Friday nite at Joliet - it was dusty!  But I had fun.

Happy Easter!  We went to Sunset (Walnut) on Easter to practice.  Alittle chilly but a blast!  What an awesome way to spend my Easter!  Thanks Easter Bunny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So much for mother nature to be consistent!  On Saturday I got to finally ride at Walnut (Sunset) - IT WAS AWESOME!  Bob did a great job at grooming the track - it was PERFECT! 

IT would have been better if I didn't crack my frame on my KX65.  I had to just ride my 50 SR bike for now.  I hope my dad gets it fixed soon!  I hope to ride again on Easter Sunday at Walnut.

FINALLY!!! I had my first ride outdoors last nite at Joliet MX track.  It was AWESOME!!  Alittle chilly but track was in perfect condition!  I hope to ride outdoors again this weekend! 

Well, I didn't get to ride this weekend because my dad got us awesome tickets to the Supercross race in St. Louis with special pit passes!  It was awesome!  I got to meet Travis, Street bike Tommy from Nitro Circus, J-Law, Jimmy Button, Mike LaRocco, and Ashley from Transworld - oh and Erin Bates!  The race was awesome - wish James would have won - but it was COOL!  Travis did an awesome job at designing the track.  It was a long drive home!  I hope to ride outdoors this week!

This will be something I will treasure!

I went riding again at Waterman on Saturday March 14th.  It was great.  Awesome weather too!  Hope to ride outdoors at Walnut this weekend

I got to ride again at Waterman Friday nite.  It was great!  I have had my fastest lap time that nite so far!  Please mother nature let us have our spring & summer!!!!!!!!!!!

I got to ride on Saturday night at Waterman.  It was great to see alot of racers I haven't seen in 4 months.  Waterman hosted a "kids nite out" - kids got to ride from 6pm - 11pm and the parents received more information about that horrible law Congress passed about the lead content in our bikes.  Like we are going to be chewing on our bikes at the starting gate.  It was a great night nevertheless.  Can't wait for the weather to break!

I got to ride again at Waterman Friday night!  I think I may race this coming Saturday night there.  WOO HOO!!!!!  I can't wait!

I got to ride at Waterman on Friday night........  it was great to get out there.........  WEATHER IS WARMING UP!!!!!  HURRY SPRING GET HERE!!!!!!!!!!!

It has been so cold here.........too cold to even ride at Waterman...  it's suppose to get into the 30's this weekend - maybe just maybe I can go riding! Just maybe...........

Well I had my first ride of 2009 at Waterman.  Felt great to be back on my bike!  And no crashes either!

WOW !!  I got alot of awesome gifts this Christmas!  One oF my favorites was new gear!  Both my brother & I got for Christmas!  Along with new Scott goggles, Racer X tshirts, & Fox hoodies.  Can't wait to wear them all!  Hope you have a good holiday!

I finally got to ride on Friday night!  It seemed like such a long time ago since I rode last.  My dad, mom, brother and I went to Waterman.  It was my first practice there - actually ever at an indoor track..  It was cool!  We are planning to go back Wednesday (day before Turkey day)....  Have a great Thanksgiving!  GOBBLE GOBBLE!!!

Well, winter is here.....  I hope to go to Waterman this weekend to ride.  I definitely don't like this cold weather!  Getting ready for Christmas!  I hope Santa is good to me!

Well, this is the start of the end of the season.  I hope to keep riding as much as I can until the ground freezes!  On Saturday we went to Sunset to practice and receive my award.  I also won a pair of goggles in a raffle! Double Bonus!

I didn't do any riding this past weekend due to weather - too windy like 40 mph winds.  I was pretty bummed!  Hope to ride this weekend at Sunset on Saturday for the rider appreciation day and awards.

My brother and I took a class with Brianna Mahon & Reese Miller on Saturday October 18, 2008.  The class was awesome!  I learned ALOT and had ALOT of fun!  We had the whole track at Sunset to ourselves!  That was so COOL!  Thank you Bri & Reese!  AWESOME teachers!!!!!!!!!!!

I just found out I took 2nd place in the Sunset Series for this year in the 50 SR class!  I am so excited!

The plan is to take a class with Brianna Mahon on Saturday Oct. 18 at Sunset and maybe practicing at Joliet on Sunday Oct. 19.  I don't knowing that the season is just about over.......

I had an awesome weekend!  Weather was PERFECT!  I practiced at Sunset on Saturday October 11th and raced the last race there on Sunday October 12th.  I took 2nd in both classes 50 SR & 65 Jr.  It was GREAT!  Hoped to get more practice in this week and work more on my KAW 65.
