Javad, Mitch:Good job, I appreciate the description of your successful race tactics. While these races are really fun they do require forethought to get a decent result.  

Brian:              With short track on the near horizon I would like work on starts (high power bursts), bumping and cornering. Last cross season a group of us used the field at Jackson Middle School to practice our skills. It’s a nice area which features large flat grassy areas, some ...

Terry: it was a hot one, both literally and figuratively, I enjoyed working with you and Russ and the other non PV’ers, I don’t think I could have finished without the benefit of an efficient organized pack.   

Matt: I was on the guy's wheel, when I saw sparks coming off his left pedal I backed off and looked for a quick exit, I think your Ironclad friend's assessment is correct. I will say, if he only got road rash and a broken collar bone he needs to count his blessings, from my vantage point it was an ugly crash.

good job Erik

Jeff: great job last night, I really thought your last break would stick. To add to the lap count lapse, during the pre race briefing they mentioned the new and improved lap counter, perhaps the number "2" is on back order. Oh well, I think we all had fun. 

Russ: good job, sounds like a very interesting course in which part of the victory is just finishing in one piece.  Looks like Richard had a great outing.

Russ thanks for the acknowledgement of a great cross season. I think we Five Old Farts had a great time racing, jumping and falling over barriers, running and stumbling up hills, slogging through the mud and muck as well as enduring all known forms of heckling. Good luck with Nationals.      

Russ, Malcolm good job in Salem last Saturday,  2nd and 4th. Looks like you two boxed in Richard Marantz.  

Thanks Russ, it was a great course so when I got back on the bike I hammered away.
