I like how the dust make's it look like your riding after a volcano blew up nice and dark and then the sun after you spread out of the pack and start to make time. Nice placement

I race against the overall winner Bobby Prochnau here in the PNWMA series. When he's not injured, its not uncommon for him to beat 2nd place by over 10 minutes. He's in a another league. Watch for his name to show up a little more often. He has the speed to potentially make a living out of this.

I saw the crash video of the Bolin kid, wicked, scary. Glad to hear he is doing alright.
The year I raced, one of the guys in our group was air lifted with a broken femur, collar bone, wrist and collapsed lung. Very scary for his wife and kids. Some of the get offs are violent because you dont see the rocks until it is too late. Heck, about 5 years ago, a guy died just not too far after the start. Heart attack! Awesome results Roscoe, you should be proud. That is about as tough an event as it gets IMO, with the conditions, speeds, lack of sleep and mass of riders. BTW, I saw Prochnau at the endurocross in Evertt, WA. He is very talented. |

Nice Ride Roscoe. Dez race starts can super scary. I crashed hard at the start of the national in Idaho a couple weeks ago. It was an awesome start though. It was Casselli, Pearson, Abbott, Augbright, and little ol me. I guess we checked out on the main group and flying. We had 1 last little ravine to go through and Jake got sideways which made me brake hard and go into the ravine compressed. It was horrible. I broke my front rotor, my seat, blew out the shock, destroyed my computer, and split my chin open to the bone. 6 Stitches. I also managed to pull my left groin. I was sore for a week. I kept trying to race, MORON, and went into a fence that pretty much destroyed my VERY VERY EXPENSIVE GG headlight assembly. $250.00 btw.
However, considering how hard I hit, the fact I didn't belong up front with the big dogs, I feel lucky to have had minor injuries. : ) |

Nice ride Roscoe! Unfortunately I couldn't make it down (spent the weekend moving...ugh!) but will hopefully be back in 2012. I already am kicking myself for missing the Desert 100...

I don't feel so bad about buying the bracket system and crf mx plate for $70 now. I knew the headlight assembly's were pricey as I bought one for my 08. Roscoe
