From the Berms

I spent last Monday trying to figure out a bike deal because I wanted to switch to two strokes. After a day full of planning and phone calls I was hooked up with Neeley’s Racing and my new KTM was in the works.
I went to bed and got up at 3am Tuesday to make the drive to Lumberton, NC to pick up my new bike in the crate. After a six hour drive I turned around and made the trip to Spartanburg, SC to Neeley’s where they assembled the bike and filled out paperwork. I then got back in the truck and made my way to Öhlins shop in Hendersonville, NC to swap out the suspension. The guys at Öhlins were great and even stayed past their normal working hours to assure that my bike was setup right.

Wednesday morning I went to Justin Henderson’s house in South Carolina to ride his supercross track and put in some laps on the new bike. It took some getting used to but I felt good on it and was very impressed with the setup. Thursday I met Roger from Pro-Motion at a track in South Carolina to do some fine tuning and surprisingly there was little change to be made on the suspension out of the box. We got the whoops and corners dialed in and I started feeling good. I loaded up the van and headed to a friend’s house in Tennessee where I stayed the night and we made the drive to Corbin, KY on Friday morning for an arenacross race. 

Friday I struggled on my starts and got taken out of both mains in the first corner. In the 250 pro main I made my way back to 5th place. While in the 450 main, I was taken out mid race by an out of control rider!
Saturday things went a lot better. In the 250 main I was yet again caught in a first turn crash but was able to pull my way back to 5th. I finally pulled things together in the 450 pro main. I came out 6th on the start and after 2 laps of pushing hard I was up to 2nd! Chris Osborne led the way and I was able to make a push throughout the race. With two laps to go Chris hit a bad spot in the whoops and I was able to pull up on him. He had the better line into the corner and was able to squeeze me off. I took edging out Jacob Saylor who was on me hard the last few laps! A win would have been great but I was very happy with the second only having about two hours of ride time on the new bike. Throughout the weekend I was complimented on my bike control through the whoops and all around the track. All I can say is that the Öhlins suspension definitely did its job! My bike feels great and now I have nothing to worry about but myself!
Its Tuesday now and I’m heading to the track for some motos. I’ll ride again tomorrow and then were off to Shelbyville, TN for the weekend. If all goes well I’m confident that I can win this weekend! Thanks guys!
