I made the main at the national and regional, finished 6th both times, but I felt good out there and I am getting a bit more used to 8 man gates. I actually passed some people in the motos!
My kids did great in the morning at the national. Kyle easily won all three 7 Novice motos (after starting dead last because he is still not comfortable clipping both feet in, so he clips his left foot in while going down the hill! He then proceeded to run down and pass everyone! When he gets that down, look out expert class!) Finished 3rd in the main after being pushed up in first and second turns. Colin was mid pack all day 8 Nov, but made the main in the morning and finished 6. They were both gassed by the time the Regional started…Kyle did not even want to race. He wasn’t sandbagging, but if you saw him, you would have thought so. I told him to just roll the gate if he needed to, and thats what he did. Next year, we are not racing the national Saturday morning.
