The Rock

Went to Rockford yesterday with the Boy and Russell. Russell came over after riding in the Kettles in the Morning with Danny, Lenny and also seeing about 15 other WORS racers there. We headed to the Rock and got there with time to spare and get the boys bikes ready for racing. Russell built a new cruiser wheel and I put a sweet White Industries free wheel on the back for him. Way to nice for a kid but what the hell he just gets on the bike and races with no questions asked. The bmx track is a really nice and I wish I could have raced. Thanks to Russell as he got the bikes all ready and got Nate ready for the races.

We got to the track and 5 minutes after getting there it started to rain, great we thought. Jake and the guys got the tarps out and covered the dirt straight aways in no time. It was really cool and then the rain stopped traps came off and the gates started to drop. With the rain delay it was every one to the main and a one run shoot for the finish. In cruiser Nate took 5th out of 7 and in age he took 3rd as he sat up at the end and got passed. What a Randy move I tell ya. In all it was a good trip and hope to get back there 2 or 3 times before the Nationals in 3 weeks.

While at the track I also bought a sweet Answer carbon pro fork for the Felt 20 inch bike I'm building up for the Boy. We are going hook the bike up with some sweet carbon bars, Sun Wheels of course and a few other geek items to make it a nice and light machine. We will post pic's when it is ready, hope to get it done by the the end of this week.

The paw is feeling better but I still take a Vicadin every 4 to 6 hours so that is why it probably feels as good as does. On Tuesday I get to have this wrap taken off and see how the Doc was able to put me back together. Going to go down by Jerry for a cookout and see maybe go to Randy's if I feel up to it and get home at a decent time. Well time to try to help Cece alittle in cleaning the crib. Later..
