Rider Updates
May 8 2014
Rider update. Off Road Cup was technical, fun and perfect weather! I was on a team of 2 in a class of teams of 3 and all men. We finished 10th out of 14. Round 2 of the MORE series I battled the entire Saturday race to finish 2nd (my birthday, so extra special), and got a 4th place finish on Sundays race. I had an unfortunate fall in the creek submerging my bike which lost me several minutes before I decided I should try starting my bike. Overall, it was a great course and good weekend. Next race is Memorial weekend in Louisianna, MO.

I apologize for the delay in updates. In August I had a bad crash suffering a broken wrist, 4 broken ribs (2 displaced) and a partially collapsed lung. I got back on the bike October 12th and placed 2nd in the MORE Ladies A last race of the season to take 2nd overall after missing 3 races. I raced in the OMA Nationals at Cross Timbers the following weekend and placed 1st in my class. December 11th I have surgery again to clean up the calcification in my wrist joint. I will continue with rehab. Next race will be The Off Road Cup in April. Thanks for your on going support!

MORE Rd 3 was a huge success for me getting the holeshot and 1st in both races! Sunday's Ladies Short is 1 hr 20 min. This course was 5 1/2 miles of dust, rocks and ruts! My Pirelli tires hook up great in these conditions contributing to my success. Tough course. I finished 5 min 32 seconds ahead of 2nd place! Love my Cycra hand guards over their competition. My FMF Power Bomb IS the bomb. Spectators know I'm coming by the sound and I get lots of comments on my exhaust. I continue to CrossFit, Oly lift competitively and cylce for race conditioning. Thanks to my sponsors and my husband for keeping my bike race ready!

Had a successful weekend at MORE Rd 2 in Lockwood, MO/Son's Creek. 2nd both days!
Raced my first Black Jack Enduro Circuit 5/5. A special treat for my birthday from my husband. The format was lots of fun and I placed 1st!
Working on my program and training. Employed a new strategy last weekend that worked to some degree but need to tweak for the next round.

MORE Rd 1 is in the books! Saturday I got the hole shot and placed first in the Ladies A class winning by full lap. Sunday I finished 5th. Unfortunately I submerged my bike in the creek and was advised not to start it. It's being serviced and will be ready for Rd 2 in May! Already anxious for that race to make up Sunday points.
I may jump in a Black Jack enduro May 4th. Still working out details and will post results if so.

I placed 3rd in the Off Road Cup. Conditions were extreme mud and rain most the day. I'm new to trials tires and Pirelli, and was very pleased with their performance. The race was stopped at 6 hours. (originally a 9 hr race). It was a great experience, and I am much more comfortable racing in mud now! I was proud to display my sponsors which were unfortunately covered in mud by the end of the day. Next race is April 20 & 21st and can't wait!!

Post surgery recovery has gone well. Training is back to full speed. My bike is getting a full work over and some upgrades. Can't wait to get back on it! Time to work on my sponsor orders and tie up the Off Road Cup entry form. Planning on the Ironwoman class!

I had my plate & screws removed from my left knee and lower leg (practice accident 3 years ago). It weighed a pound! I'm anxious to recover and get back on the bike. I know it will improve my ride as I will have less pain. And, aren't we always looking for ways to lighten up our ride?? That pound of metal now gone should help!
Merry Christmas to all of my Sponsors!

I am appreciating all of the sponsorship offers and am excited about the 2 I've accepted so far. Thank you EVS & De Cal Works!
Last weekend was a work weekend at the Old Ranch and worked on riding skills after and before the freezing rain arrived on Sunday.
Continuing my CrossFit conditioning. I am competing in the Iron Turkey Open this Saturday the 17th. Olympic weight lifting is proving to be very good for riding conditioning!

I am researching auto clutches currently. I've been told enough times now that I should have one! Time to make a decision.
We had our 3rd annual riding get-together at our property. We had 80 attendees from KS, MO, and Iowa! So much fun.
Next weekend, work weekend at the Old Chicken Ranch.
