Friday Night Update (no photos)
Forgot the camera for the Friday night BMX races (sorry grandparents)! But things went a "little better for team IZZY than last week. Tommy was still getting great gate starts, only to get passed in straights 2 and 3. Several of the track regulars came up to me and said he needed more gear. So that's what were experimenting with this week. I hate to bog him down too much out of the gate, but a good start doesn't mean much if your 6Th place at the finish line! Izzy on the other hand actually found out that it is o.k. to pass people that are ahead of you! Several times he moved the bars to the left or right and made the pass. Now if he can learn to not let them get in front of him in the first place, we'll be set.
I'm still doing my morning "Greg pacing" thrashings. The fitness is coming around, and i'm starting to remember that falling off the back hurts worse than burying yourself to hold the wheel in front of you. Everyone racing Memorial Day Weekend, good luck and ride safe! Ty
