Melvern Talk

#1 Post by slomojo » Wed Sep 25, 2013 3:59 pm

Looks like the weather ought to be good.Maybe a little moisture to keep down the dust.

Tonight I'm going to do some repairing and tuning on the old Honda to get her ready, so look out Shredder. :mrgreen:

I've got something special on her for this race. :twisted:

I'm just bored and need to get something started. :)

If I rode in that crazy 1000 class I would try to disguise my bike and myself. These guys are crazy!

Well I'm clear coating my bike so that I'll be invisible!

Don't think I'm not getting it dialed in myself, OOOHH yeahhhh baby!

I wasn't crazy until I moved to the senior class this year.The racing between Dennis and me has been to close and I've been infected.He's a carrier you know. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Coming along with my neighbor... this time to ride and not just be there to help! Trailrider class I guess, which looks pretty big at some races, like 20+ riders! We didn't get much more than a dust-settler rain here in Topeka. Hope they got a little more down there.

Looking forward to my first hare scramble... but I have no idea how you guys race hard for 2 hours! Hope there are some places for a slow guy to pull over and take a break! lol...

It would be fun, but I am going to need some sponsor help. I can't keep Collins bike up and running much less two bikes. I sure don't know how f-five does it.
