It does feel strange. No SX , No MXGP , but I'm good with it. I woke up this morning to some damn snow on the ground here. By about 8am , it started to become like a blizzard , but was luckily just warm enough to not stick to the roads. I'm in hibernation mode right now , drinking beer ( lots of it ) and playing around on the computer. To tired and sore from work anyways. Went to the RV / Trailer show yesterday..........and it got cancelled too. Well shit!

jeffro, write my username down for the next time the RV /trailer show comes to town. I always have an abundance of free tickets that i cant even give away. Id be down to share.
Really? Thanks Craig! I'll try and remember to do that. This is the weird thing......I think they actually got to run the show on Wed and Thurs , but the city shut them down on Friday. They had all the big cargo doors open and the entire show was set up , but it was a ghost town , except for the 5 x Dually trucks hauling all the trailers out of there. Talked to a couple of them to see if it had been rescheduled , but all they knew was that it had been cancelled completely. Got there about 11:00am , and this is what I saw on the front entrance.

I’m on a nice street bike ride this weekend, was going to go even if there was SX going on. Can tape it and watch later. Hopefully people are getting out and enjoying life if weather permits. The roads here n So Cal are very quiet and it’s making for a excellent ride 👍

If you need that moto fix tonight, the 2009 Indy race was pretty exciting...as was that whole season. Back when James was FMOTP. Amazing how he passes Reed, crashes, makes up 8 sec gap....all almost before the half way point in the race!!

One of my favorite races and tracks of all time! That track , was so technical , kept the speeds down and was just plain awesome. It didn't need mach 5 strait aways and timing sections. To me......this track is what I wish some of these new designs to follow.

If they are indoor events why can’t they just get everyone in, Close? the doors and fumigate the whole crowd thru the ventilation system with Lysol? Kills the virus, everyone gets to see a race and best of all everyone smells ultra disinfected upon departure ?

Shitting the doors would be a deal killer.

My wife has commandeered the family room TV, and is watching Say Yes to the Dress over, and over.. We've been married for almost 2 years!

Literally my internal vibes right now:

My wife is despondent over the lack of auto racing.
She's binging shows about people killing their spouses.

I've been trying to catch extra shifts.

Worked on bike and worked on truck. Fixing to start working on the chain saw in a bit. At least I'm getting things done that I would have normally blown off while watching RDL and SX. Need to hit the weight room later as well.

My next three shows in Texas got cancelled. Trying to get in a show in Oklahoma next weekend, if they’ll let me in. Going to sneak out tomorrow to the practice pen and spur some bovine.

I spent 6 hours on the tractor and added a double-double-double to the roller section, and reworked the left turn leading into it so that it's basically a big ass berm that will be super fast. Bucketed in 8 yards of woodchips, and ripped everything. Tomorrow I will till it all in, and then I'm gonna ride the shit out of it with my boys, since they can't go to school and I can't go to work, and the weather is gonna be primo. I'm kinda likin this covid stuff so far. I'm perfectly happy riding my track with no one around. Forever.

Edit - did it all in the snow, wet and cold. Clay got slick as deer guts on a doorknob. And FU,down vote, ain't nothin here not to like. Wink
