Stalemate

I think I am hitting a stalemate when it comes to my riding. I don't think within the past two months my riding has improved at all. A big part of that I think it the Kawasaki. Before I bought the bike I told people I was looking at moving from a 4 stroke to a 2 stroke and they looked at me like I was retarded. Even after I got the KX250 and rode it I didn't understand what the big deal was. Now that my skills have improved I am finding that riding the 2 stroke is seriously difficult at my skill level. In hopes of bettering myself as a rider I have posted the bike for sale on Craigslist and TON....

Practice 10/22/06 – ADV

After taking two weeks off from riding, I have returned!!!! I know what you're saying. How could I have left the sport knowing my absence would ruin it. Attendance records has dropped 96%, fans have committed suicide. All I can say is A playa has to do what a playa has to do. Nah mean? After feeling like Robert Downey Jr in rehab I thought I may need to take a break. The break must have been a good thing because I was on my game today. Granted my game wasn't quite good enough for the day track on ADV. So I stuck to working on my corner speeds on the Veteran/Beginner track. After warming up I ran into...

Practice 10/08/06 – CCCP

My four day weekend of sweet ass riding was just not meant to be. First I over did it on Friday leaving me sore for Saturday. Then, Ian and Tye flake out on me today. I woke up today feeling good but kind of medicine head feeling. But I was determined to go out today. So I packed up the bike, dog and wife and headed out to CCCP. Shortly after arriving I started booting up. Into strapping up the first boot I got seriously out of breathe. These are not new boots. They have been broken in and are easy to strap up. When I say easy think about how easy it would be to get into Tonya Harding's pants....

Practice 10/06/06 – Cross Creek CP

Around the half way mark yesterday I got the itch…not that itch. I am currently treating that one with topical cream. I am talking about the itch for riding. I knew just going for a couple hours after work was not going to scratch the itch I had. I felt the need, the need for speed, 4 days of it. Right away I start looking at my team's calendar to see if Friday and Monday were available. What do you know, only one person scheduled to be off. Boo Yaa! A short phone call later to my team lead and I had a 4 day weekend. 4 days of some sweet ass dirt bike riding. This morning my ass was out of bed at 6:45...

New Theme Completed

New theme is complete. It's pretty slick if I don't say so myself. I enjoy doing these themes. Which is why I change them some much. If you want a theme for wordpress done let me know. Leave some comments with your thoughts about the theme. My next project is probably finding a way to auto change themes every week or so. This would help keep things fresh for me.
