I know, I know, sorry about the lack of updates this weekend! This is gonna be a long one, so grab a drink, sit back, and relax! We were back in Canada this
weekend for the fifth and final round of the CMRC Suzuki Ladies Nationals at Sand Dee Lee. We flew into my hometown, Syracuse, NY on Friday, then drove into Canada. We arrived at the track and it looked like they have been getting monsoons like we have been getting in Florida the past couple weeks! It was super muddy! Thank goodness this is a sand track and can soak up quite a bit of water.
On saturday I usually practice, but the only practice I got in was off-roading with my Dad in the rental car! What a fun time that was! You see, our tour guide, Giselle [The GPS] told us to go straight, instead of making a right. We followed her instruction and it led us into the forest and through the trees...Literally! Anyways the track seemed to be shaping up good and everyone was praying for the rain to hold off till Monday.
When we arrived at the track on Sunday it looked awesome! A bit muddy, but the track crew did a great job of getting the track in great shape! I was stoked for today. Not only was today championship day, but my friend Jenn, www.no1jenn.com came out to watch me get the #1 plate! Well, I went out for practice and got my bike and myself all dialed in. The track was pretty kewl. The layout was fun and I really liked the whoops! After practice and opening ceremonies, it was time to moto! If everything went smoothly I could wrap up the championship in the first moto. Thats just what I did! First, let me tell you about my start! It was the best start of my life! I finally got the holeshot aboard my Orange Rocketship, KTM 144! I pullled a holeshot for all the 2 STROKE fans out there! haha I was so stoked after that, I could've pulled off and been happy with that! I didn't though, I kept on. I was going pretty good out front and then I fell. Whitmore got by me and then with two corners to go I passed her back. We had an awesome moto! After the MX1 class, the womens podium took place. It was awesome! I am going to be on the Canadian Motocross Radio show tonight, just check out www.racerxcanada.com there you will find the link.
I'm super happy with the way things went this season. I had an incredible time up in Canada. From the country itself, to the tracks, and to the fans, it was just amazing! I'm very grateful for the opportunity I had to come up here and I would love to come back anytime! I wanna give thanks to God, my mom and dad, the whole KTM Canada krew, Royal Distributing, Thor, Alpinestars, Parts Unlimited. Till next time...Braaaaaaaaaaaap!
