It was a heavily embargoed day. I struggled... a lot. A lot of soul searching now.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.

They should give your ride to Masterpool.

Chase can point you in the right direction for set up.

Riding is hard.Give yourself a break, or you'll completely forget to have fun during this whole thing.

The people who you are worried about criticizing you are just jealous. You are the top journalist in the sport, no one should care how fast you are or how cool you look on a bike. I am just excited for the content. It will top notch and funny, just like everything else you put out.

So how sore are you? 

I remember when I would be off the bike for months at a time. The day after that first ride I would almost not be able to function.  Tieing my shoes would be almost impossible.

Sooo... reading between the lines of an embargoed day at Glen Helen and mentions of Masterpool and Chase, it sounds Kawasaki-ish. 

Hope you had fun riding whatever it may have brapped... I mean, "been."

My first day back riding after many years off the bike I didn't feel half bad at my local track, til Michael Hicks showed up. I can't imagine jumping back into it at a place like GH.

Lewis Phillips is doing a “job swap” with Chase Sexton for a fun feature and his first day of riding to prepare for the job swap was yesterday at Glen Helen. I think he said it’s been 11 or so years since ridden last. OP was hoping someone got some video of him.

This was my pre-season, haha. 'Job Swap' will be a disaster (for me) but Chase keeps telling me to not care what people think.

I don't know. It's tough.

You’re riding dirt bikes. It’s for the fun and camaraderie. Ignore the noise.
