Orange Y May 22

I have got to start remembering to take the camera again. MaxAir was in full force last night at Orange Y. Ryan and Pierce did not make it but the Leech's and DuCharme's were there with the exception of Jessi and Melissa being sick and at home watching movies. We were all supposed to go to Glenn Helen for the outdoor AMA National Motocross races (Sat) but that ain't happening unfortunately. Well back to the races. Big daddy DuCharme and Shane took 3rd as did Sean. I am so focused on Sean and Jessi when they are racing that I sometimes miss the others. I did pick up Shane's race. He's looking good. In the main a kid clipped his back wheel coming out of the second berm and went down pretty hard but he's alright. Sean is coming off the gate really fast and looking smooth. He just needs to stay on top of the gear a little more. I bumped his freewheel up a tooth and that is helping somewhat. His determination is back where it needs to be as he had a little set back moving up to the 8 year old class. He just needs to race and build his leg endurance and fitness up. He is a fit kid, being on the swim team, but racing bmx is like an 800 yard sprint for 45 seconds. Orange Y on Sunday and possibly Bellflower on Monday night. Peddle on BMXer's.

Slow Down

We have had to back off a little on racing due to Jessi being in volleyball, me being volunteered to coach and dolphins swim team starting for Sean and Jessi. We won't be able to make Orange Y on Friday due to a school function but plan on being in Bellflower (double points race) on Saturday and Orange Y on Sunday. Oh yea, Sean and I went to the ABA Nationals in Bakersfield a couple of weeks ago. Wow, racing and track was awesome and the event was HUGE. I'll post following Sunday. Keep on spinnin.
