1st 1st

Nate in his 1st win of the year in the cat 4 and with the win he moved up to the cat 3's. Nate hit the gas out of the last turn and took the win by about 20 yards and was still pulling away at the line. Looked good through out the race and rode smart and finished strong.

Nate sat at the front and rode smart all race.

Nate, Marcus and Eric at the start of the cat 4 race. Marcus pulled out about 1/2 way through and Eric about 2/3's as his levers loosened and slid down making the braking and turns hard. To bad that Eric is a mechanic and checks every ones bikes except his own. Bet he checks everything from now on.

Nate just taking 2nd at the line beating Thomson.

Today Nate toed the line at the last WCA race in Fond Du Lac this morning in his new road team kit of the ISCorp team. In the Jr race he finished 2nd place just ahead of Thomson. Right after roll out he toed the line again in the cat 4's and rode at the front covered a few of the guys trying to break away. Then as he came out of the last corner he hit the gas and took the win by at least 20 yards. Now Nate has moved to the cat 3's and that should be fun to watch. I think the 3's are a little faster and the sprints are faster for sure, but the races are smoother and less crashes most of the time. So I hope that he keeps up the hard work and gets some decent results. Then we took off from the road race and headed to Green Bay for a pre ride for the mtn bike race tomorrow. I like the course as they are running it backwards in spots and it seems to flow real nice. There are a few wet spots form all the rain, but it should be a real good race. Oh well time to watch some of the Packer game and get rest. Later..
