avg lap time is 6:04 which is getting better every time im out there
amateur class is hopefully going to be a good year next year if i can keep up my training program and push on harder and harder every day

Went out for a day ride today at the camp. it was a lot of fun getting back out there, been a good while with the race season and family things. trails are a little rough and need some goo dwork but they r still there. we went out venturing a bit on some unfamiliar trails and was able to find some real good ones, not that we will prolly ever find em again, but it was worth it at the time. put in a good 36.85 mi of trail riding in. really wanted to do more but i can only go as far as my riding buddy can make it and he was worn out.

The day started off nice and cool. i walked the course out early to get some blood pumping and loosen up a little bit. Had a good start then stalled the bike and it went bad. Took the 1st lap and made up 9 spots putting me in 8th. i was on cloud nine cuz i was riding smootha nd feeling really good. Got into the 2nd lap and was slammed down hard after the back wheel got lifted up from a stump and it out me down reallyt really hard. broke clutch lever and bent handguards real good. Landed straight on shoulder and head and it was hurtoing. Nothing was broke and everything is good now but the entire week after left me with a broken bike and very little movement in arm.

Finally i was able to get back into the groove of things and get back working out. Actually was able to get onto the bike and put in some road miles. Would be nice to have more time in the day for all this and to have a much better road bike, but its ok. Something is better than nothing.

25 sit-ups
35 min road bike (5.6mi) - 6:15 avg mi

Was able to put in a good 1.5hrs today at the personal track. Wasnt able to get on enduro cross section too much due to rain and mud. I wanted to bad but its hard enough to take care of and fix what i got much less it only takes a lap r 2 to destroy it. so i put in about 15 laps on the short course part which is just trails. it was practice tho and a muddy one at that. its nice to be able to pratice so close to home so when you have terrible rainy days like today its just a matter of minutes before im back home. Thank god for giving me another day of riding and coming back home to my family once again.

So the day started off a beautiful day and ended a perfect day. Was able to test out the new enduro cross track and the trails. Put in some great riding time in. Was definitely nice to get back on the bike after cutting hand open on table saw. Hand is healing extremely good and doesn't affect my clutch hand any bit. Bike ran really well and did great.

Went thru the trails and took out the few face slappers that were there. Gonna put in some good riding time in this weekend on the new enduro x track and trails
Sep 1 2011
Finally started more work at my track and have decided to put in an enduro cross style track. It will take a good bit of work but hopefully by the end of the year i can have all my trails cut, my mx track finished, and the enduro croos part finished. Time will tell but if i can get this done it will make for one hell of a place to practice finally and we will own it all. Cant beat that

Well i did it to myself and out myself out and off the bike for a month r so. Cut the left hand on a table saw pretty bad. 3rd, 4th, and 5th fingers all sustained cuts with the 5th getting cut twice.

Got some good time on the bike in today at Frog Capital MX Park in Rayne, LA. Put 59.52 miles of riding in on the track there. Still need to get way more time in on the track but it for sure will help me through out the rest of LACC series when we get to the mx parks that r part trails n part track. Bike has some new rubber on the wheels so traction was not a problem. Still not landing my jumps where i should be but its coming. Need to send suspension off for revalving and setting. Bottoming out on the front forks a good bit, could be from landing unsmoothly but im not sure. Time will tell

Went out to Rio Bravo MX Park in Houston, TX today and put in a good 49.?? miles of track time in. Place was amazing, dirt perfect, weather nice, all in all it was a good day and got some reall good practice in. Slowly tuning up my mx track skills
Jun 25 2011
put in a god 40-50 laps in today. the ground was pervfeect from all of the rain that we got this past week. track was in tip top shape and condition after a few minutes of dirt moving n correcting and then it was on. got things roling real smooth off the jumps and turns. still need to work on the whoops sevtions but it will come. everything comes in time with good consistent practice.
Jun 23 2011
put in about 15 miles today but man oh man was it muddy. it was very muddy lol but we all gotta learn to ride in the best and worse of conitions
Jun 12 2011
Put in a good 38 miles at the track and trails today at Beaumont Moto X. That place is a nice hard packed tracked with some high speed wide open trails. Lots of fun out there. Great practice and conditioning being out there in the heat riding. Did a few log and colvert jumps as well.

so after blowing my caliper to pieces i was finally able to get back onto my bike after receiving the new caliper and man is it nice to have. went down to Beaumont Moto X in Beaumont, tx today and got in some god track time and hare scramble style trail riding in. this place is pretty dang nice. its not th egreatest place but for $10 a rider i doubt it could e beat anywhere else. its hard packed and notall rutted up like most tracks. has lots of hills and big jumps in the trail sections along with about a 30-35ft hill jump this place is really nice. will definitely be getting back out there to put some more ride time in
