The Sledges Again?
Nelson Ledges July 30, 2000


Went back to Nelson Ledges. This time we took Jeff our race photographer and met up with Marshal (old college roommate). This was also the first weekend with the Pit bike.

 

Here's Marshall helping with a tire change. I had been running DOT's (street tires) since the beginning of the season. It was time to switch
to race slicks.

Dave prepping his bike. That's me with the bald head. Not sure why I did it, but I had shaved my head bald. Didn't work out so well as there
was no hair to absorb any sweat.

Here's a shot of the baldness from the front.

Dave demonstrating the mechanical intricacies of his two-stroke machine.

Dave and I headed out for a race or practice.

Me headed out for my D-Superbike race.

Ah the pit bike. I picked this up for $200. It's basically a lawn mower motor in some rickety frame. I paid too much for it, but it was a lot of
fun.


Jeff took some color photos of this weekend too. Here's me leading Don Kinsey out of turn thirteen down the front straight.
