Middle of Parking lot
This was the parking lot we battled through. I wond up crabbing the truck through. (Crabbing means I was pointed up hill but moving accross the hill.)
Meta's muddy shoes
It was wet and muddy. Note how muddy Meta's shoes were just from walking from her car to my truck.
tracks in the mud
This is the tire track from riding my YZ250F out of the muddy parking lot.

Ken thinks he's SOOOOO cute. ;-)
PQBON getting dressed
I'm putting on my pants, while Tonya gets something out of the truck.
My bike after it started
Casey Lytles' former race bike. Upuntil, friday of that week I was still running his number, 59, and his AMA number plaques. I'm going to replace the radiator shrouds and the front and rear fenders (which I already have) and the tank (I need to get) and put on a yet to be determined graphics kit.
Me before the race-happy-
Me, happily eating a power bar. Not even knowing I'm about to have my will to live crushed out of me by my horrible lack of stamina.
Even happier as I think I will finish
Ahhh, a young 27 year old man just prior to his spirit being crushed.
Leaving - note the saddness-
I am sad. I have DNFed. I am putting away my Oakleys in defeat.
Still sad- note the mud around the mouth
See the mud? I'm actually covered it just is a light sandy mud on my face and jacket so you can't see it too well.
Still not looking happy
Note the broken look. the sad face, the horrible mud behind me that I still have to drive through.
