season is ON

Wuuuhaaa today was a really big pro race going on at the ABA/ UCI Winternationals in Phoenix AZ.
Everybody showed up out here in the desert, to pull on the good track here!
After friday practise they changed the prosection quite a bit and today was really cool!

Felt pretty good at the Gate with all of these big names around!
Got a second place to start in to the race whitch motivated me a lot, came up with a sixth and a fourth it was tight but i made it to the quarters. Motos here are a bit different than in Europe, you race against different people in every moto!

one of the motos.. as you can see, it was alredy going fast there!






Quarters came up in the hot sun, didn't come out of the gate that good but was able to stay away from small mess in the first corner. Then stayed in fifth behind Bubba Harris until third corner, where we both passed the other guy.. made it into the semi and was really happy with that!




the sheet told me it will need a perfect run go get thru this one.. 4 former WorldChampions at the Gate!





Between Kyle Bennet and Maris Stromberg i had a pretty good gate and was able to get into the pack in the first corner.. came out 5th behind Khalen Young, tried to make a move in the third corner.
But in the end it was a 5th Place in semi, I'm happy with this first race of the season!
Stay tuned for more news, hopefully it doesn't rain to much tomorrow!
