looks like fun, I gotta get out there sometime.

TeamDEKEbmx · 07-21-2008, 11:14 PM

The kid in the red shirt has a computer part in his pocket that needs to get back to me. Could one of you Bellflower STR BMXers get it from him if plan to go to Orange the following Friday? His name is Chris Canata. He is a rather large 14yo kid w/ a broken collar bone. Oh you all look good out there Lee, Carla, Hugh, Mark...
Thanks
Randy

I did find a action mode on my camera that should work better, but I have to learn how to change the image size to work on STR.

Danny, glad you could make it out there! Also glad to see some of the regulars (Mark, Hugh, Carla, and Eric).

As mentioned, I was beat. This was my fourth day in a row of racing, and I really felt it. I planned on taking it easy, but once the starting cadence begins, my heart starts racing, and I'm ready to go. Even still, my legs were burning by the third moto.

I hear that a bunch of the Orange Y and Bellflower locals are going up to Summit on Sunday.

denmother · 07-22-2008, 09:01 AM

Roger and I showed up for practice at Orange Y last Friday and half the crew was missing!!! And to top it off, no one even had a camera to prove that I was there and riding.

I am trying to get Roger to go out again this Friday!!!

Sorry that I couldn't be there to ride with you guys. I was racing at Simi Valley that night. Speaking of...I hear that there was a 4X race, and you didn't race. Why not? Were you trying to be nice to the young guys?

BTW, I won't be there this Friday either (I'll be at the circus! - no really! I'll be at the Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey Circus at the Honda Center).

I'm not even supposed to be riding in the dirt yet so I had to take it easy. No sprinting or jumping yet. Just mellow practice and happy just to be on the bike.

P.S. Let me know how the circus is, we are thinking about going.

Julia is bummed she missed this. Julia has two little cousins visiting and as you can all imagine she's (so happy) to be spending time with them. She's working hard on getting them on bikes (Not going well). Julia will be at the Y on wednesday. Julia12 wanted me to let you all know she's riding wednesday.

I might be able to start coming to these monday night shindigs in a few weeks, but for now I have school

Denmom, I'll vouch for you being there are riding, even without photographic evidence. just ask me if you need a witness

As for big bear, I won't be able to make it this week, but the week after, I'm good for saturday AND sunday

I think hugh should come along too. a little chair lift would be good for him. Somebody get that man a squishy bike! (and no, a ti hardtail isn't squishy

)
