Desert Breeze Session!

Found Desert Breeze park that was luckily like a 5 min drive away from the house. Psyked. Rode for a good 2 hours and it was pretty hot but had alot of fun and hooked up with some dudes from Napa who knew me from some Ramp Rats contests. It was cool and I had some fun. The highlight was this rad lil 4 yr. old kid who was ridin a lil 12 incher around and his dad told him it was time to go. The kid started crying and the dad fuckin flipped out like went totally ape shit. i quickly grabbed the cam and luckily I got a shot of him crying after his dad tossed his bike over a fence. Then at the light when I was leaving a big truck rear ended a care next to me and it was pretty rad so I got a pic of that shit too. Tons of pics and Im such a camera whore now :) Loving it. Thats day 2 in a nutshell enjoy the pics !

Day 2 Early Sesh...

Got things going early today because I wanted to beat the midday heat but I still got pretty warm with zero shade. Anyway drove up a few blocks and hit a good cement park that was tons of fun. The tranny was kinda shady here and there and different so it was weird but I jibbed around and had a good time. Took some shots and a little emo self shot to show the scene. 75 and over softball tourney was going on so I chopped it up with this lady Barbara who was in town from Sandy, Utah. And she was telling me how I should be safe and get into computers because they are the future. LOL it was hilarious to say the least but she was awesome and just enjoying life with her husband of like 50years. We talked for a good 30minutes and watched some softball and talked about traveling and stuff. It was funny because she'd name a state or region that she went to and she would talk about a big park or museum and Id come back with a good trail spot or skatepark there. I told her theirs a big park in Sandy where she lives and she said its pretty quiet there so she doesnt think it would be in her town lol. Anyway enjoy the pics, lunch time and then find something else to do :) Lastly- buy stock in lithium if you get a chance, I just dropped $22 on what looked like 4AA batteries and because they were Lithium is the reason for the price bump....

Day1

Well heres day 1 of my drive and brief story :) Took off from my house at about 11am and landed in Fresno at 1pm. Smooth drive no worries juss listening to bay stuff the whole way. Showed up near the track and who but Dave Bittner is at the stoplight honked, flipped him off and then let him know it was lil ol' me :) He would cut me off later to even the score. Rode Fresno for a bit and check the pics because the track is really good. Small turnout though- 8 riders 3 motos.... Stumpy is a beast there though and on flat pedals no less. Dude is straight horsing there and its good to watch if you have the chance to see it. Took off at 4pm and caught a chance to hit Tulare as well. Quick stop though and then dipped through the desert. Vegas came up at about 10pm and I called Analina and hooked up for dinner before making it to my new week long home :) Dinner was good and me and Ana caught up alot which was fun. Keep in the loop for more pics as the week goes on!

Viva La Interbike

Pics and stories of a road trip and a good week to start popping up any second...

Reedley Ca

Reedley Ca State Race! haha reedley always is a blast and this year was no exception. I ended up taking some more names in the pro-am and looks like Im back to form as far as speed goes.. Style isnt exactly on point or looking good but hopefully it works itself out in the near future. Went 2nd and 3rd for the weekend with chances for the win both days but different things kept alluding me. Soon though. Made $200 for my efforts and served notice that im back which is always good. Hung with my normal crew all weekend and enjoyed their company and met a new chick named Della through Al who was nice enough to snap the photos you see below. I got to hold the flag for the flag lap and was pretty psyked to do so and the others are race shots of me, eventual winner dave bittner, and stevey grote my favorite am all gettin busy. Good overall weekend and I feel fairly good for the next 2 months of travel i got going.

Came home to work drama- some fuckin idiots just dont get it I guess? So off work for quite a bit i got shafted out of some work days because my manager is trying to prove something which will never change. Im a rider before any job or amount of money... Get a clue.

Pics

So here are a few pics from NBL Grands. Notice the odd style, thats what happens when you cant pull with both shoulders haha. Isnt that great excuse? Check the shot of the first straight and look how dead even everyone was at the 2nd jump... Inside lane was good on that lap for sure. Thanks to Brad Lovell for the pics and most of my race pics will be from him Im sure in the future because hes 1 of about 10 photogs I know but only 2 of em go to races :) Thanks B-Rad

NBL Grands Trip!

Where do I even start on this past week? One of if not the best trips ever thats easily said, but recalling every laugh, smile, or pure moment of fun that I had is impossible. From 630 feet in the air of the St. Louis Arch, to sketching out at just 3 feet on a 25 foot jump, and then being in the low desert driving for what seemed forever. We covered EVERYTHING! When you can talk shit with an Olympian at a club and then 20 minutes later your thrown out of said club for knocking out some random guy in a fight, you know things are far from boring. It was the usual suspects plus 1. Al, Myself, Brent the Noob, and Ryan. Trip was seriously the best time Ive had in ages. Racing wise I got out of rounds somehow and then got through the 1/8th and even out of the 1/4 which surprise me but then my luck and skill would run out with a lovely 5th in the 8man semi. 4th gets you in the main and 5th gets you sent home :( I wasnt too bummed because I didnt feel that quick anyway but it was a great outing for me none the less. Hung out with all the NBL Cali crew and thats always a good time. Made some new friends that will be solid in the future and im psyked on that :) Rode my bike and had a great time. Went inside the top of the STL arch. Rad experience to say the least. Knocked out a guy in a bar fight. Not so rad :( Saw strippers always funny. Dope museum trip that I enjoyed. Ran outta gas at 3am always fun :)

5,000 plus miles, 7 states, 15 bikes, 4 guys, 1 solid fun trip. Thanks for the invite boys and cant wait for the next one!
