We went down Saturday to do some work on the new vintage bike we spent all day tuning up the suspension on the 87 250. We got out on Sunday morning for a cold start to the day. I got out there with a 1 point between me and Brain for 2nd for the year with him not showing I ended up taking 2nd for the year not the way I wonted to get it. the races went well and was battling it out in all my classes and felt good on both bikes. My dads bike suspension was set up a hole lot better and was able to push the bike harder thanks to all the work Jay Hall did on Saturday. I ended up taking 5th in vintage and 4th in B and my Dad took 6th in Vintage.

AMA Dist.17 Enduro Geneseo, IL
We head out to Geneseo, IL for an enduro the last two weekend I was dealt with bad luck so this weekend goal was to start and finish with out any problems. the first test was fast and open I struggled a little to find the speed I needed to be at. the next 2 test where the most technical tests of the race and I was riding right with Jay and had good test. the 4th test I made a little mistake on a hill the cost me around 30-45 sec in this race with the test so short second it the different in placings. we came in to gas with a lot of time to recover and get ready for the last test. Half way through the last test I got lost do to the course not arrowed well which cost me enough time to drop me a few spot and got beat by the guy I am battling with in the point standings. I took 8th on the day out of 20 riders in my class which is a good day compared to my last 2 races. I would like to thank Jay for mounting my tires with mousse insert so flat tires would not happen again. I would also like to thank everyone who keeps T.C.R. going

AMA Nait. Enduro Park Hills, MO
We made the 5 hr drive down to Park Hills for the enduro. The race went from anything but planed there was a 3 mile transfer section before the start of the race by the time I got to the start of the test I got a front flat. I had to end up riding the first 3 test on a flat since that was the next time I would to my support team. I got to gas and put a new front tire on and was ready to make up some time that I lost half way through the 4th test I was pushing and the front end went out from under me and ended up going down hard I got back up and was trying to push and my front end just seamed to be pushing I pulled over to check see if everything was ok I found I have gotten an other flat front tire. I ended up finishing the day in 20th I rode a 44mile race 40mi of it on a flat. The last 2 races have given me some bad luck but that's racing time to regroup and come out fighting harder. I would like to thank Halls Cycles for getting my bike ready for this race from what I destroyed the weekend before.
