Tim - You got my e-mail I hope. Will send some more pics in the next couple days.

Britt - too many bikes vs too many commitments and not enough time to ride all the classes. If we could get a good long semi-dry Woodland season or maybe a few more Farm-style events nearby, I'd ride vintage class more often. I'm too hard on equipment when the tracks include quite a bit of air time.

I'll be back in town after the holidays and drop you a line re coming by for parts and bits.

Nope, no e-mail, if you sent it through this site the system still must be down. I'll look for the pic's sometime this week.

By the way, the picture of Jon blasting through the turn was shot at Salem indoor last Saturday. It sounded NICE!

Long legs, low knees... has my big feet pointed almost to the ground when sitting :(. Actually not as low as it looks--rear end sitting high off the ground with bike on the stand.
