Default Day 6 ready to roll

Day 6 about to start!

Final day and for most parts its an easy one! 45 KM of trail to an impound area and then they are split into their classes of E1, E2, E3 and womens for a final moto and they are done! Just finish and you've got your medal! Woke up to rain all night and still overcast, could make for some drama...I don't think I have ever been to a "six days" where there hasn't been rider or FIM drama.

Ryan Sipes leads the field and could win the first overall ever for an American!!! The junior team had another setback with Nick Davis's Husky getting dirt into the cylinder and going down. So no world team or junior team on the podium this year. Out of the 10 riders on both teams, only 5 remain standing. 3 mechanicals and 2 injuries...meanwhile EVERY club member that started will finish!!! Pretty Awesome!

Gofasters team was awesome, but unless a miracle DNF by one of the riders ahead, we are stuck at 4th....Still an awesome job by all 3 riders.

After the moto it will be a scramble for everyone to wash their bikes, pack them in the crate, and load that monstrous container. It will take most of the day and into the night. After that, there will be some partying as a British guy quoted last night.

"Yes, well...its going to get a bit messy won't it"
