Several of us from oklahoma/texas went out to world vet for the first time. Also first time at Glen Helen. We had an awesome trip. On Saturday, in 2cd +50 novice moto, I was trying to pass 2cd place on the first lap when he swapped out going up the first hill and took out my front wheel. The whole pack missed me but I think they all ran over my bike. It was trashed.
Luckily I had brought my son's new sx150 along to rob parts off of, so I just decided to race it on Sunday. I haven't been on a 125 really since the 1980's and was a little worried about the hills but I had a blast. The 150 is so much fun to ride. I got killed on the start and up the hills but it was a blast down the hills and in the corners. Went into Talledega about last in both +50 novice motos and my first +45 novice and passed a ton of guys on the first lap every moto. The +45 had over 35 riders and I made it up to 15th, but decided not to beat up my son's bike anymore and skipped the last moto. In the +50, I got up to 5th the first moto and up to 4th in the 2cd moto. I had so much fun, I may ride that 150 again next year. The track and the bike lived up to the hype and all of us are planning to go back again next year.
I hope the guy that landed on my 450 and went down is ok. He was apologizing for tearing up my bike but it wasn't his fault. Also there were several random people that I don't know who were yelling, and a guy waving a towel every lap. 2 stroke fans I guess. If any of those guys see this, thanks, that was really cool.

I guess we can settle the debate. 4-strokes break more and cost you more money. Proof.
