Press day for Glen Helen was great today! All the riders were there, and they had the chance to ride two 20 min motos in the afternoon.

The track was mostly the same as last week for the RacerX ride day. The major differences that I saw were the finish line (it's now a step-up) and the inclusion of a small landing after the wall jump.

Although I spent most of my time capturing video footage, I also got a few still pictures, which I'll post here.


The Hills:




Canard is riding really well, and a podium finish wouldn't surprise me. Here he seat bounces the new step-up finish line.




Ivan Tedesco on the same jump:






Osborne starting to climb Shoei Mtn.






This picture was taken halfway through the start straight, looking at the Talladega first turn.

The weather was weird yesterday, with temperatures around 65 to 70 and very cloudy.

It's going to be warmer for the race tomorrow, around 80F.

What? 80? I'm telling my wife to brace for 100+...We're melting here in AZ already.

We can do 80, standing on our heads...
