Alligator
Enduro
Brian couldn’t get his parts so he wouldn’t be able
to race the Alligator. I had a
little trouble getting signed up because there is only a 500 rider limit and I
didn’t pre enter. I ended up on
minute 10 with Matt Stavish. This
race was pretty easy to time keep because there was a bunch of restarts. It had been dry this year in Florida so the famous bogs
weren’t there this year. I was
also disappointed that I didn’t even see an alligator during the whole race or
even my whole trip to Florida for that matter.
I ended up riding really good in the open stuff, trail that were strait
with a bunch of deep sandy whoops in them, but I still need to pick up my pace
in the really tight trees. I
don’t yet understand how to go very fast without bouncing off trees, so I tend
to ride without making mistakes and try to be consistent. I had a problem with my rear brake bolt falling out and
having to ride ten test miles without the rear brake.
All in all I had a good time riding with Matt and ended up tenth.
I have to give a big thanks to our back east Works Enduro Rider pit crew
of Milt, Doug, Lindsay, and Jimmy who are always a tremendous help.
