Supercross

I am so stoked I get to work for speed channel this weekend at Supercross. The big down side right now is that it is supposed to rain Friday and Saturday so it is going to be a muddy mess. This will mean that I am going to be a muddy mess. This also means that there will be some good racing. The coolest thing is that God gave me this cool opportunity to do this. I also get to be right in the middle of all the madness down on the floor with all the racers.

I love racing dirt bikes in the rain and mud. When I was 17 I raced in the muddiest race ever. The mud was so deep most of the pro's were even getting stuck in the mud. I was winning my class and about fourth overall on the last lap when I crashed. about five miles from the finish I had my bike tapped out, (going as fast as the bike would go) going down a hill, and bam next thing I know I am laying upside down in a ditch with my legs bent over my head. Two guys stopped and pulled my bike out and I hopped back on and finished the race. My back hurt so back I could hardly walk.

I raced for two weeks barely crawling back and forth from the couch to the bathroom. I finally decided to go to the doctor and found out that I had some compound fractures in my back.

So everyone set your dvr to record supercross on Sunday at 11:30 its going to be a good race so check it out. Oh and you better be rooting for the green bike #2 Ryan Villopoto.

See ya Sunday
