I saw more bikes go down on Saturday than I have seen in years. Just how many racers did go agricultural racing on Saturday? Did anyone get hurt? It looked to me that most were low-sides, but the bikes just got buried in mud and sod when they went off the track.
I went for a moto on Saturday after it started to pour during practice. I actually lost sight of the track for a moment because it rained so hard. I kept the bike upright and was able to dirt track it back on to continue practice. I'm glad for all of the mud moto's I've run. Rain tires remind me of trials tires! ;D
LOL!!!
Eddie, your too funny.
Mike:
A lot of 600cc machines went down on Saturday, but I don't think the ambulance was out on the track all day. I know it didn't leave with anyone.

Paul went off the track right after the kink in the rain, but was able to keep it upright and get back on the track. He ended up winning that race. ;D

One of the guys in our pit that was running the MW SS race has rain tire-patterned markings on his helmet. He's fine though. :o
The mud was a killer! I went down in my first race and it took over an hour to clean my bike enough to ride. Took me about 15 minutes to fix the parts. And of course I missed my 2nd race and made my 3rd race and decided to throw it down again. What the heck why not. Maybe someday the grass will fill in at that place... Had a great weekend hope to see everyone in July.
Still suffering from injuries from crashing in the da*n rain, hand is the worse though, not sure if I can race this weekend.

Yet another picture of Dr. Purk resting during a race. Does he have good camera timing or does he just do this for all of the attention? ;D ;D ;D
