April 25th - Bellflower

Bellflower today. Sean raced a points only race and got firs place. A points race means that points are added for each moto. There are no qualifying motos as there are only 3 riders. The racer with the lowest number of cumulative points in three motos (2 motos and the main instead of 3 qualifying motos and the main) wins. Sean got first in each of the three motos. Sean did not get a good start in the main and was neck in neck with the 2nd place rider (Dane). Dane rode high on the berm pushing Sean to the outside. As they approached the 2nd berm Sean went inside and nudged Dane to the outside; giving him a friendly little elbow just like the Jammer taught him to do. Sean was 2 or 3 bike lengths ahead going into the 3rd berm. Dane decided that he might take a little cut and rode under the markers. Dane's track cutting didn't help his cause. I spent quite a bit of time talking with his dad, Marcus we had a good laugh watching the two battle it out. Quite a fun race. Jessi had a talent show on Friday night so we didn't ride Orange Y. Ryan and Peirce were in Orange Friday but I didn't hear how they did. Hope to see you all at Orange Y on Sunday and don't forget the Nationals in Bakersfield May 1-3. We are going up on Saturday, staying at a hotel and watching on Sunday. It will be our first experience and plan next year to be racing; maybe even dad.
