First w/e in Expert. Weather sucked and quite a few crashes(including me!).
SAT: GTL - Lowside turn 1. Fucking pissed at myself. Started about 20th and had worked my way up to 9th. Was just stringing together some 21s, and I got greedy. My friend Doug Fogg(who is faster than me anyway) was in 8th, so I started pushing harder. With about 3 or 4 laps to go, lost the front in turn 1 and pissed away a top 10 Expert finish.Live and learn.
LWGP - 20th -need I say more. I was 2 and a half seconds off my pace after the crash, and that don't fly in Expert.
LWSS - 18th - See above post.
Although I would have liked better results, I still had a blast and can't wait until next season. BTW, It was Doug Fogg who helped me get my bike fixed after the lowside - great group of guys.
Missed the OTW guys who couldn't make it - hope to see you at the banquet or in NYC.
FWIW - I crashed twice this year - both times when I decided NOT to drink the night before. Go figure!
