Last night was another night in Kenosha as the bmx was rained out. Nate and I made the trip and he raced ok. He was still tired from the long race on Sunday. I could see it in his riding that he was tight. He pushed through but made some mistakes and did some things that I hope he is learning from. 1. Started a sprint with the sprinters on your wheel, does not work. 2. Getting up to the front and letting yourself get boxed in, can't get any money that way. 3. And not getting a good warm up and getting dropped in the 25 lap race and getting back in and then hanging on for 17 laps and then having no problem hanging on. With the bmx Midwest Nationals in 10 days it will be hopefully some bmx racing next Tuesday. With the time trials called off today Nate got a much needed day off and then we will do the beat down and a easy Friday before the State road race Saturday. The rest of the Hayes team was riding strong with Jeff R. winning the sprints and Jeff B. winning his first race. Lenny was winning like always and Danny was racing strong all night. Bob was also looking strong all night with top finishes. Jerry rode a great points race and came from behind in the last 15 laps to steal a 3rd place finish.
The punks have 1 more day of school and then off for the summer. Cece has 1 more week and then she is off so that will be nice. I have to work unless I can come up will another body mangling injury. I would rather work then go through the last few summers of things that I have dealt with. Now I need to go and lift weights and make sure Nate's bmx and road bikes are ready. Later..
