As Posted BND's post On The Racing Side:

We went to Nancy's benefit tonight. GREAT turnout! Food was great, and the silent auction did great as well!

Russ was there, but unfortunately Nancy is in the Hospital as of yesterday, and could not make it.

I heard a lot more details of her cancer struggles that she has gone through over the past few years, that I had not heard about in detail before. Amazing, that one person can be so strong!

Nancy and Russ, all of our thoughts and prayers are focused on you. Stay strong and we'll all be there giving our support.

I have a few pics from tonights benefit that I'll post tomorrow

Sh%t!!! I thought it was next weekend... damn it!

I really wanted to go.

BIG 40th Happy Birthday to Scott Kraker! He has to be the youngest old guy I know, lol.

Boecker is.

Happy Birthday Scott K.

Happy 40th Scott K.

Happy Birthday Chucky! Great job this weekend!

Thanks for the birthday wishes guys.

Kearney was a great experience. I cannot believe the talent out there. I felt very fortunate to make one of the mains.

Pauli gets the superman award for the weekend. 1100 miles of driving through all kinds of weather and he took 6th in both his mains. It must be that funky music he listens to.

You mean Paul "Stray cat strut" Springer.

Ya gotta have decent tunes to get you down the road and get you amped up for racing. Scott put up with my mad karoke skills down and back from Nebraska, man I am a good singer. Good times!

The local news was at the races and Tom Rixen got quoted in the paper, check it out:

SAWEEET!!!

Doesn't the smurf contract require jersey's and pants to be worn at all times?

Really though, that was pretty cool. Rixen the TV bmx star and bike detailer.

Yes, Russ "Alligator bite" Newcomb has me beat by a foot. MC you dingbat, stiflel!!

Happy Birthday Chucky!!!!

A day late and a dollar short, but happy belated birthday Scott!

What is happening to this zero traffic site as of lately? Its suppose to be growing. Do I see a pattern?

I blame in on the rain.... Who knows.

Fully!!!^^^

I have BIGTIME Winter Blahs......Although I went and hit Roch's indoor park this weekend, and that seemed to help.

I think I too may retire... Whats the point?

Hang in there Brad. Hopefully this cold weather pattern will break and we can make the faction ride on the 29th work. Maybe we need to pick a Friday night practice and have some casual OS racing again. We can call it practice for the 2009 Condo.

Anyone hitting practice this friday?
-Bill

Ditch,
Get any pics of the indoor??

Friday is out for me. If all works as planned, I will be racing Saturday night.

Racing sat is straight out for me. I have to drive my dad home from the airport early sat morn. At best, I'll be home by 4am.

Yeah Ditch, any pics of this Rochester Indoor park?
-Bill

Depending on how the Ultrabox 20" feels I may race Sat myself. I know the 44/16 w/ 180's is to much for me, but we'll see.
I'll most likely be there either way.

Cool...can I have your CYC and GT then? LOL

I dont.. guess you'll have to come see it yerself.....I'll get you guys down here one way or another...

Which GT?

The CYC, I'm giving to my Brother. Shhhhh, its a surprise b-day present.

I don't want to quit building, even though I have too, unless I sell some of these rides. I just don't have the room. My goal was always to build one and sell it, take the cash and try again. Its not suppose to be a gain of money, just a gain of owning the bikes I always wanted but never had.. At this point, I only have bikes I owned as a kid. Somehow I did this bassakwards.. LOL! The only frames I really want is the DG-racer1 and the Ames/Pedals Ready GT. True 70's bmx bikes.

Ditch. Do that. Drop me a line & I'll try to get down there. Does this park have a website or anything I can check out?
-Bill

I'm down for hitting that place up too.. What's the price? How big are the ramps. How many ramps? What kind of ramps?

Hey DITCH !
I got your OG hunts-wilde Number plate sitting here in the dungeon.
How did you want to recieve it?
Airmail? I think it can fly.....If I throw it hard enough!

I can mail it if you'd like, or you can swing by my place in "norf moneyorpolice"
(north minneapolis)..LOL

Email me if you want.

FLAPJACKS IN THE HOUSE!!! What up Jack?

Happy Friday kids...

Same to ya. I gotz the day off. Yeeeeeeee!

Is it still January and knowone told me about it? This cold is insane for F'n March..

*** You regularly scheduled March forecast has been interupted so we can bring you this noot freezing cold ***

I blame this person:

There never right. I looked at the Weather channel Monday and it said 40's for us this Sunday, now its down to like 25.... WT? And you wonder why were moving in 4 years. I'm done. Ted loves Florida We need a photoshop of TC riding a Gator. LOL!!!

It's always 55 and dusty in the barn. Brad, are you going to bust out that 20" on Saturday night?

BA and TC on the way to their top secret track in FLA.

Hey, They both are running Wood-y bars!......har de har har....

OMG, that photo is hilarious, major belly laugh!

I need some ointment, I am already getting itchy for Rockford. woot woot

Yup, no more 24's, word to your mother. LOL!

Mikko, that's funny. It just goes to show everyone how much spare time you actually have

I wish I could take credit for that, but I can't. Kurt is one funny f'er, he has little clips posted out at his site.

As luck would have it, Bradley, I did in fact, used to ride an alligator in Florida, so there is no need for a photochop....



Here is the day I brought him home for my room-mate to see. (Of course I hadn't blown him up yet), but I surfed my gator all the way to shore many times....Fortunately, sharks don't eat alligators, so we were safe from sharks when riding my alligator.

The other item of note in this pic, is that we were too poor to pay the sewer and water bill, so we just punched a hole in the front step.

All in all, just another typical day in my life at college in Florida.

Just remember who you're messin' with there Bradley. I did ride alligators in Florida. I'm only boring now because I usually HAVE been there AND done that...And I always get even, and usually ahead.




So don't start with me man.....!
