ummm they ride there because it is a freeway away from their headquarters and race shop, also they ride a bunch of different tracks to help set up for different style dirt.. Pala, Glen Helen, Milestone, Comp Edge and more.. I am just sayin' that this track is a shit box. Sorry if I offended you way out in Wisconsin. Go Packers.
You didn't offend me at all no worries............. I just more had some questions for you

You're a fast rider. And yep, those pros sure walk by everyone like they're standing still. What amazed me was not only are they fast, but once in awhile you get a rider like a Carmichael, McGrath, or Stewart, who makes everyone else look slow.
thanks man!

Good vid Clintmiglia411. A little quicker and you would be right there with Deano lol you're a good rider. That kid on the PW almost took you out bro! They need to make sure kids like that are not on the track with pros like Wilson and Tickle. That's scary.
thanks man! and yeah that kid got a little close to me haha

Whats with all the negative nancys out there? Milestone isnt the gnarliest track (compared to Glen Helen) but its fun and provides a good challenge. This video shows when they combine the Vet and Main tracks together to get longer lap times, they work with what they got and it is enough to draw in the pros. Agreed on the elevation changes, you can see where they have attempted to add a few "hills" to the layout (near the horse stalls) Glad to see they removed that braking mound after the vet main street of 3 double jumps, that was just lame. You always hear how video doesnt do justice, but right now Im not even touching the Main track, as clearing eveything on the vet is good enough for me...

I recall riding in SoCal around 03 at Elsinore I was cruising along on their GP track and Grant Langston comes flying through the longest whooped/wash section of the track weaving through about 4 or 5 of us commonfolk like we were standing still. Him and Fonseca were out there practicing this other 2-3 rythym section, a completely different level.

Cool video Clint
thank you man

I believe before the nationals started reed dungey villopoto and just about every pro were out there testing, so the pros must like something about the track

Im with you Drtrydr. That main track may not be the craziest thing out there but for those of us that ride to work on Monday its enough to keep me on the Vet track. Now if they would only take the super lip off the back table we would be good.

Dude don't bring me into this Clint is consistent and is actually pretty fast. He is able to do long motos good and isn't wasting energy every jump scrubbing like me. Haa! Nice video Clint, my only advice (even if you don't want to hear it) is carrying your speed a little more coming into turns, I noticed the same thing when I posted a helmet cam of myself. I actually hold in the clutch a little bit, the compression of a 4 stroke goes "clunk clunk clunk" coming into turns but I hold in the clutch just enough where it coasts into turns and I'm able to come in smooth rather than bouncing around.

On that note, today I gave my doc some tips on completing brain surgery successfully. Pretty much the same thing.

You were riding fast. Not like your slow. Just amazing how much faster they were going. Makes you wonder where they find all that speed.
