Koontz Mega Series ~Kelly Mountain Race Coverage

[Pappy]

Thick mud coated riders doing everything they can to hang on!

[Pappy]

The sun would pop out and bake that nice crusty mud finish to everything!

[Pappy]

Then a cloud would turn everything flat once again. I wouldnt have wanted tinted googles at this race, infact many riders had to dispose of them as they were useless in some cases.

A racers father and a spectator, a doctor of all things, walked over and started chatting with me. Before i knew it the leaders were streaking in my direction. McGill was looking for smoother track as he now controlled the lead as he passed by me withing inches at full throttle!

[Pappy]

Bithell now had his work cut out for him, with McGill in the lead on a track he knows well, this would take some doing if he wanted the win and that $500

[Pappy]

Brent was taking advantage of every thing he had, power, suspension and expierence

[Pappy]

Joshua Dains called it a day after 3 laps, stating the track was so rough he just wasnt having any fun that did not keep him from cheering on his friends!

[Pappy]

Ummm...I wonder what his skid plate was made from

[Pappy]

Even with a hard course to deal with, riders still had enough energy to give me a thumbs up as the race started to wind down

[Pappy]

With 2 laps to go, I made my way to the finish line area to see how it would all play out
