24 hrs of Conyers - short

Monday, May 21st, 2007

They say you learn more from your mistakes than from your successes. I should learn a lot from this one then, though it could be a long time before all the lessons become evident. I bailed out around 1:30 AM after 15 laps when I broke the golden rule of 24 hour racing…don’t [...]

Dirt, Sweat & Gears…a little late.

Monday, May 7th, 2007

I’ll keep this one brief….yeah right.

Namrita, Kona Scott, and I arrived Friday afternoon in Fayetteville, TN. We pre-rode the course….sweet! My Kona Hei Hei was gonna rock on this course.

Technical Difficulties

Sunday, May 6th, 2007
