This is what racing in the snow is like

Bandit Cross - Wrentham, MA 01.08.2011 from Russ Campbell on Vimeo.

Russ had some driveline issues and parked the bike and picked up the camera. This was racing in the snow. First couple times through the deep sections were tough but it gets easier. Temps were cold enough that the snow stayed snow and the rare wipeout meant just brushing the snow off.

Next week, come on out. We'll set up a new course, and make it happen. Adam pushed to have two twenty minute races so we did. I timed/ran my mouth, and then we reversed the direction and sent everyone off for one pre-ride lap after a quick break and then did 20 min again. The first lap of the first race was 4.5 minutes. But JT started in the back and eventually went on to turn 6 laps in 20 minutes. Second race was much the same, although resultsboy did an admirable job of holding the holeshot/lead for a lap. Brant Hornberger was turning some impressive laps.

Most impressive was Donny's ride up from PVD, in that weather. That was pretty intense seeing him riding up. Also the two kids from Rutgers, Molly and Eric? They got there early and helped Russ chip up the glare ice where we crossed the road (dog walker's vehicles packed it down and it froze solid and sheer). Yes, they drove up from NJ that morning to do the race.

We're doing it next week. Saturday. Same time, same place. Do it to give Jerome some traffic to race through, make it a race to help our local U23 kid heading Worlds.

Thanks to those who came out!
