WORCS-Adelanto, CA Round 2
Going into Round 2 I was excited and feeling good after my Round 1 finish. My goal this season is to be consistent. Saturday Pro practice went well. I went out and did a couple hard laps and had some fast times. The course was really rough after all the racing that had taken place before our practice. It felt like RG3 gave me a pretty good set up and the bike was working well. I couldn't wait for the gate to drop Sunday afternoon.
On the line it started to sprinkle and it was looking like it wanted to rain. When the gate dropped I got a descent jump and rounded the first corner in 3rd. From there it went into the of road, and everyone was pushing hard and going for it. I made a little mistake and a few guys went around me. I then started to work my way back up as the race progressed. At about the half way point I felt really strong, my training is paying off. I continued to push and when the white flag came out I was in 3rd. I didn't have enough time to catch the 2 other bikes in front of me, so I road a smart race and crossed the finish line in podium position.
This was a great way to finish the race. I am currently 4 points back from the points lead. Thanks to my team, trainer, mechanic and great sponsors and family, all of your support is greatly appreciated. I look forward to Round 3 in Lake Havasu, AZ. Hope to see you there.
