I hope to race the next event and do good! If I know I'm not going to do any good, expect a good crash from me!

4X guru Dale Holmes
That first picture...man..that was the infamous 1st moto where neither Lee or I could get our left foot to sit on the pedal. I should have put my clips on!

That's what I'm talkin' 'bout! Well...I'm sure you meant, "so you [won't] have rear wheel problems."

So you go for next round?

Ah...I remember that. I think I had too much traction with my shoes, because I'd try to move my foot to the right location, and it wouldn't go where I wanted it. I finally got it positioned while jumping the doubles out of the third turn.

Rick, what was the problem with your axle?

Yes, good skewers make all the difference in the world. I've been using Salsa skewers, but I think the knurling on the Chris King hubs also helps.

Nonetheless, the bolt-on axle is the best bet. Hmm...that gets me wondering about my upcoming Mob, where I was considering using a different set of wheels that aren't available with bolt-on axles, and the axles aren't knurled.
