Ohhh Yeaaah!

Ok, so I have been pretty busy since my last post...

I have some news...

I've been riding a lot on the road bike, nothing out of the usual. I finished 10th in both my road race and the crit. I was pretty bummed out because the pay cut was 8th. BUT I did get to use my new carbon Cane Creek wheels AND I got to see some friends at the race!

This is the start of my road race in Mt. Pleasant.

I've also been back on my BMX bike and I really cannot get enough it! Two weekends ago I had a race in Rockford, Illinois. I did not do so well at the race both days. I was extremely bummed out about my results. The Monday after the race I helped at a BMX camp in Warsaw, Indiana. I was an instructor and along with all the other instructors, we taught the campers skills on and off the track. It was a great time! I even got a little help myself from the guys which was awesome. The camp was Monday-Wednesday and we have great success.

I drove home Wednesday from Warsaw and had a day off, it was great. but turned back around on Thursday and went back to Warsaw to catch a ride with Jerry Landrum from BMXmania and Ramiro Marino from Argentina, heading to South Park, Pa for another national race. Since I helped at the camp and got a little help from the guys, my weekend went a lot better for me. I made the main event on Saturday but not on Sunday. But I keep telling myself, progress is progress and making the main one day is better than not making it the whole weekend. My teammates Scott McMahon and Johnny P. came and raced in South Park as well, Scott won the A- Pro class on Saturday... He didn't even know he made the main event so he ran up to the gate before it dropped and ended up winning!! Congrats! And Johnny P. killed it in his class as well!

From top to bottom, that is me in pro practice, the second picture is Scott winning his main, the third picture is Scott and I with his check (it was extremely HOT!) and the last picture is Pat from ESPN, Johnny P. and myself! sick!

It is ALWAYS great to see my friends in BMX and learn more everyday about racing and riding.

Next stop, Nashville, TN next weekend. I will be busting my butt to be in the main event both days there!

So... I have some news to share. I have decided to transfer schools. I will not be attending Lindsey Wilson College anymore, I will be attending Marian University in Indianapolis, In. in the fall. I will for sure miss my friends at LWC but they always have a spot at my place whenever they want. I am looking forward to my new experience!
