Ahhhh, the smell of fresh molded rubber in the morning

I had done what I could in the pits and still wasn't feeling great. I knew I did not have the energy to tackle youth race and i would like to apologise to them. I have been sick for over a week and even though I was feeling better, I was still pretty run down. And ofcourse, the chimichanga's in the hotel parking lot didn't simmer down until 4am when I final got to sleep.

Two major graduations and the race hit Athens Ohio this weekend. I should have gave in and sat out and drank beer with them all night, couldn't have hurt me none

The podium featured Ryan Early, Levi Coen and Doug Howarth.

Howarth took the overall win with Coen and Early finishing 2nd and 3rd respectively.

Howarth was going to make sure EVERYONE got a little of the bubbly

[Pappy]

LOL...I think she wasn't prepared to get hosed down Doug

I wanted a new look for the starts so me and the kid scouted a few spots. Before I knew it the 10 seconds call was echoing across the field and U2 was cut loose!

Rick Cecco was hard on the throttle as he secured the holshot!

[Pappy]

Traci Cecco fired through next as the Womens class took to the track.


(U2 guys, I have more shots of you but not really sure where they are )

[Pappy]

Kristen Atwell, Jessi Stracham and Jennifer"Somebodys watching me" Albright all set up to tame turn two!

Jennifer, tell Geico that song from the commercial won't leave my head

[Pappy]

Angel Atwell was off to a bad start and she wasn't getting any love shown to her in turn two!

[Pappy]

They turned the old guys loose next

I'm sorry, Super Senior

I figured it out.....them guys could be a row ahead or a few rows back, but what better for the heart then to have to follow and pass all them good lookin' riders in the womens class! You sly dawgs!

Pritchard leads the charge as he grabs himself another holeshot, and would reach the ladies before they got too covered in mud....now thats smart thinkin' and a huge incentive
