last wednesday i was practicing at cahuilla creek mx. in my second practice moto i did not return my whip on a stepdown, and crashed, breaking my collarbone in 2 places. i went in for surgery on friday, and had a steel plate put in. i should be back on the bike in about 5 weeks.

Today was probably the hardest race of the series, as they decided to run the track backwards. In my first moto I got 2nd place on the holeshot, and held 2nd for half a lap, where i was passed on the uphill. a few laps later, a rider on a KTM crashed and i passed him for a finish of 5th place out of 6 riders. In my second moto i had a bad start, and stayed in 6th for the entire race, giving me a last place score overall for the day.

I went back up to Glen Helen for round 2. I didn't feel strong during practice, and in my first moto I crashed and broke my clutch lever, causing me to pull off the track and take a DNF. In my second moto I passed 2 riders on the first lap putting me in fourth, but was passed back on the second to last lap, causing me to finish 6th.

The REM track is very different from most of my local tracks, focusing more on rutted turns than on jumps. I crashed once in each practice, but this only told me which lines to avoid. In my first moto i got a decent start, ending up around the middle of the pack into the first turn. On the 2nd to last lap of the first moto, i crashed and i was passed into 8th place, where i remained for the rest of the race. In my second moto i got a bad start, but passed 3 riders on my last lap, allowing me to finish 6th. Overall i finished 6th in points for the day, and i look forward to racing again next week.
