That was soo fast and fun


Over to Eau Claire I went with Mr. Borst after taking a year off from the firecracker. I remeber it being a fun race, but with my increased speed this year it was a blast. I really got to put out a awsome word for the people who maintain and put on the firecracker. Everyone I talked to had a blast and loved the course. Unfortunatly we had a couple of casualties. Steel ran head on into someone going backwards on the course and got several stitches in the hand. I really feel horrible for him. Shawn alos took a hard hit of which I don't know all the details, but sounded like he was ok.

I really gave it my all. The start could have gone a little better for me, but I got where I should have been. I ended up 9th about 4 minutes behind first in age. 5th to 8th, I think were about 10 seconds apart, but about two minutes if front of me. I think back and feel I could have gone a little harder in the single track, but it would have been on the ragged edge of control for me. I was sick of crashing this year like many of us. Again a really awsome race and fun time with the guys and girl.
