Firefight911 Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 I hit a cone. So, what you're really saying is that you have had a 3rd accident in about as many weeks!! God, I want to be there for your next morning briefing!!!!! Better start helping out the guy who's striping your new R12RTP's. You're either gonna need the experience for your new job after you're Chief fires ya or you're gonna need a fresh supply of bikes to keep you riding!!! Link to comment

tallman Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 John, My bad. By going to Atlanta for the MC show there was no one to step on your toes and bug you. I'll be there for the next one. See you at the new bike christening. Link to comment
motorman587 Posted February 25, 2007 Author Share Posted February 25, 2007 I came in third, in the BMW advance class. The greatest news is that out of 12 teams, we came in second. A team is 4 members. We beat big teams as in Jacksonville and Orange County. I am please with that. Link to comment
David Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Hey, John, maybe you were trying too hard? I'm thinking it's got to be fun, first, and then strong competition results will follow? I find myself tensing up too much, and just "having fun" helps relax me and keep me from focusing too narrowly. Congrats anyway. I imagine a lot of folks would be thrilled with how well your team did. Link to comment
motorman587 Posted February 25, 2007 Author Share Posted February 25, 2007 I am not that disapointed and these rodeos are for a good cause. The money for registration etc.......... Goes towards the Speical Olympics, but for me the biggest reason is for our weak riders. We are going to replace one of are teammembers with a new one that has competed twice and beat out one of the team mates. If that makes sense. We all compete by ourselves, but 4 members make up a team. You pick the 4. This team was picked becuase each person had placed in a rodeo. One of the weak riders time beat a teammembers time. So that is what these rodeos are about. Link to comment
David Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Gotcha. Actually, now I understand perfectly, as in high school the top five runners score for your team and I was usually the fifth, bringing the entire team crashing down around me. Link to comment
motorman587 Posted February 25, 2007 Author Share Posted February 25, 2007 I like to add, that we were the only BMW team and we beat out 11 other Harley teams. I truely believe that we one this, if our guy did not crash. But even with the crash we came in second. Link to comment
