This info is buried in the other Pro Challenge post. Figured I'd highlight it.

I'm going to experiment with Periscope tomorrow to broadcast Pro Challenge race moments/highlights. I'm also going to be shooting photos, and I only have two hands, so my broadcast schedule will be brief probably-no more than 5 or 10 minutes at a time-and intermittent (unless I can get a friend to handle the phone). I also don't know what the 4G coverage is like at the track, so the video may not be great. Never really paid attention, though regular cell coverage is pretty good there.

I'm going to try to be live for a few minutes on the following schedule:

(Central Time)
11:55am Pre-race - Pro Practice
1:00 Pro Qualifiers (if necessary)
1:30 Practice/Quali Wrap up
2:50 Moto 1 (through the holeshot)
3:30 Brief wrap
4:10 Moto 1 Results (if the score sheet is up by then)
4:55 Moto 2 (through the holeshot)
5:30 Brief Wrap
6:00 Final Wrap


That's the plan. Add 'ISH' to all times on the schedule. Don't expect much. I'm no Dianna Dahlgren. And I'm there to watch the race first, not hassle with my phone. But it might be cool.

Twitter/Periscope handle: @WhipItMX. If you're going to be at the race, you have Periscope on your phone and want to add your POV feed to the mix, just tweet the 411 to me @WhipItMX with #SwanProChallengeTV so that it shows up in that feed and people will be able to find your stream.

Dang. Thanks for the update. He hasn't texted me yet so I hope he's alright.

Matt was on a 450, I heard them say 250 over the pa but he was most definitely on a 450, the header wrapped in front of the frame. He put in a couple great rides today!
