In many ways it gets easier, the more you do it the better shape and more conditioned you get. You learn how to ride cleaner and conserve energy.

I don't know that it has gotten any easier for me or if I known what to expect. It is absolutely addicting though. After my first race, I felt the same way as you. After my second I was looking forward to the next race. Now I'm just focused on beating Tyson and not letting Stratton beat me [emoji33]

In some ways I feel responsible for leading you guys down the path of darkness and now I am enjoying sitting in the side lines.

I wouldn't say path of darkness. I would say you showed me the light. And I appreciate every minute of it Paul.
Chad, you can forget about beating me.

You old, broken guys need adventure bikes! I feel like I'm not young & healthy enough to get into racing at this point, but riding a big adventure bike into the backcountry fills my needs... for the most part.

Tell me about it. Ive really been enjoying the dual sport bikes. Mellow/scenic ride to a nice camp spot with old friends and then sitting around the camp fire talking about how fast we 'used to be' seems like the norm lately

The ride back from Mesquite turned my bike into a block of ice! It was frozen to my bike carrier, the straps were frozen completely solid. I had to lift the bike off because nothing would move at all, and I dragged it into the garage

I just posted up 300+ pictures from the Mesquite race in the Desert Flash group on Facebook.

I already spotted me a few times. Thanks for taking pics. My new white gear makes me look in a lot better shape than I am. Thanks!

I'm going to brag a little, Mr Tonkaman, who I kinda coerced into racing, ran the over 30 Novice class and in his first ever race:

I guess first place ain't bad for a first race. That felt pretty good till I realized there was only two of us in the bracket ha ha!
I added up the novice entries and I places 33 overall novice out of 61.

I was wondering the same. Judging by the UDOT camera's it's a little snowy out that way.

EEEKKKK. Knolls + moisture = salty corrosive mud that is hell on aluminum. Your bike will never look the same after that.

Ha hardly! I worked my guts out! It was a real reality check yo how weak I've become.
Thanks for the encouragement guys, I appreciate it.
By newbie, I mean complete newbie. '85 Suzuki.. I've had him out a few times, and it's a sloooooow ride.
But you are always welcome. Shoot me a pm with your number, and I'll keep you informed
I'll just borrow Derek's new bike. No worries
But we will be sure to wash them well immediately after.
