I was really looking forward to racing next weekend, but low and behold, Friday is my daughter's first day of kindergarten. The wifey would be kind of pissed if I skipped that. lol

Who's the genius that made the decision to start school on a Friday?

That was my first question. It's not a full day of school, but more of a meet and greet. A rundown of how everything works, but still, it's a Friday.

thinking about it! I did the one at Sunset Ridge MX a couple of weeks ago and it was a great day. The program was done by 2:00 and it was an amazingly laid back deal.

the Vet MX weekend at Redbud is so sweet. Done early in the day, all age classes. Track generally staying in better shape with less bikes on it. If you can make it out do so!

Ehh I'm gonna disagree with the track stays in good shape. That whole back section from the whoops to leap goes to shit. Especially the whoop section. It garbage buy the start of second motos.

What classes ya guys riding? I'll be in 30 and 35b. 649 on a Honda.

Last year it was rough as hell by the end of the day (well before actually lol).. I rode 3 classes last year and was Motos 15 18 21. I came off the track for my last moto pretty late. Sucked having to load and leave at 8pm after riding 6 Motos. Hope they let us stay Saturday night this year.

I’m all signed up and ready to go. This is easily the most fun, best run vet race in the country. If you’re on the fence, don’t miss out!

As well as getting done early, there will be probably 900 bikes. If you're the 10th or later moto you won't be done until 5 or 6

that is crazy markup. Those are CDN dollars $$. Few if any 300 out west. Here is the closest I could find , which is a 250 two stroke. Edmonton ALberta.

Last year Kelly Smith n I think Willard hit it. This year no one has yet. Partially because they got a little crazy with the water truck and made the corner a mud bog on the outside (likely intentionally).. if it dries up a little n smooths out, some will do it.

I’m so bummed out! I was all entered and ready to go for this weekend, then I wadded up and broke some stuff at Lincoln Trail last weekend. It looks great. Have a fantastic weekend!
