Been quiet... How about this beautiful thing to start it back up?

New Toy!

Inherited from my Father-in-Law. He was a great guy,and I hope I do this thing justice.

Second place, and a great big trophy! Congrats Barry!


Check out the Hooligan action:


I didn't fare so well in the vintage class. Those guys were pretty good riders, and my bike was a bit slow, and had some real bad handling issues. These will be worked out by next race (I hope!). Not much I can do about those guys being better than me (yet!).


SO FUN! Can't wait for the next race May 7th.

Here's the wild, bucking ride:

Been forever, eh?

Well, life's been pretty busy, but spring's here, and the 59 boys are going racing! I'm nervous as heck. It's been 23 years since my last real race, and that was MX. I have a feeling that flat track is gonna kick my butt sideways...

I did a "Hooligan" race last year on my Sportster, and just fell in love with the idea of trying this stuff out. I'll be running Vintage Amateur class on my little Aermacchi 250. Chances are good that I'll be getting lapped.

Barry will continue running his Sportster in the Hooligans, and pretty soon my 9 year-old son will be joining us on his little Suzuki 110.

I'm going to try and document the season, so if you're at all interested in a 44 year-old reliving a youth that never existed, keep checking back!

I *think* the bike is just about ready. Here's hoping nothing breaks.
