On March 30, I raced the AMA Dist. 37 Not So Tough Enough Enduro. We woke up to cold temps, wind and rain. Lucky for me I had my MSR jacket in my gear bag. The jacket worked perfectly, not to hot and not to cold and very comfortable. I ended up with a 3rd place finish and missed placing first by 40 seconds. Thanks to Rockoil . The synthetic transmission oil helped my clutch to work flawlessly through the rocky technical terrain. The night before the race I cleaned 3 air filters in about 10 min. Thanks Notoil for the easy to clean air filter systems.
On April 13 I will be competing in the 4th round of the National Hare & Hound Series.

Thanks to my sponsors, MSR, great gloves, rode 70 miles of rough terrain, hanging on tight and no blisters !
Rockoil , great transmission oil, I work the clutch a lot riding the 2 stroke in rough rocky terrain. The clutch never got hot and worked flawless.
NOTOIL, Again a great air filter system keeping all of that desert dust out of my engine and filters are very easy to clean.
Thanks to all for your support.

January 26, Opening round of the National Hare & Hound series. The expert class rode one 80 mile loop with a remote pit at the 40 mile mark. Aprox.70 miles of this loop was rocky single track, uphill & downhill, some called it gnarly and I agree. Took 5hrs. and 50 min. for me to finish this race. I finished 3rd. over 50 yrs.250 cc expert.
Thanks to MSR, gear fit well, pants accommodated my knee guards well.
Thanks to ROCKOIL, synthetic transmission oil had my clutch working smooth all day .
Thanks to NOTOIL, great air filtering system, easy to clean after those long dusty desert races.
