It looks like this might be the last race report for the year. I still hoping to make it down to the last race with ASMA, but with the truck still out of commission I\u2019m guessing that may not happen.<\/p>\n
So how did it all end up?\u00a0 Not as good as it could have, if my bike would have been functional for all the races, but not as bad as I thought it was going to.\u00a0\u00a0 I finished out the year:<\/p>\n
1st<\/sup> Formula Femme<\/p>\n 3rd <\/sup> Novice GTO<\/p>\n 3rd<\/sup> Ladies of the Rockies (with the MRA)<\/p>\n 4th<\/sup> Novice GTU<\/p>\n 4th<\/sup> Amateur GTU<\/p>\n 7th<\/sup> Amateur GTO<\/p>\n None of those results would have been possible without the help of my sponsors and large number of others who helped me out this year.<\/p>\n I really need to thank my 2010 sponsors:<\/p>\n PJ\u2019s Motorcycles<\/strong>:\u00a0 That mostly goes to Aaron, he has gone above and beyond with that \u201910 SE d675.\u00a0 I know that he is really glad the season is over and that he won\u2019t be getting any more calls from me on Sunday.<\/p>\n Race Tech<\/strong>:\u00a0 Lenny, who spent a lot of time with me at Sandia one Sunday trying to dial in the front end on that SE.\u00a0 When that failed to work, he stopped by and completely rebuilt the forks in the parking lot of the Triumph Dealership on his way to another race.<\/p>\n XBAM:<\/strong> Bree is fantastic at making me feel great so that I can go out there and ride, even with all of my past injuries.<\/p>\n Speedin\u2019 Motorsports: <\/strong> For working on the bikes under a very tight deadline.<\/p>\n Chick Hawk Tire Warmers: <\/strong> Their warmers are the easiest to use and offer great flexibility.<\/p>\n Leo Vince Exhaust: <\/strong> Helping bikes sound and perform amazing.<\/p>\n Michelin Tires \u2013 aka Vanmar Racing & Fastline Racing<\/strong>:\u00a0 Without those fantastic Power One Tires I wouldn\u2019t be able to make it around the track.<\/p>\n Suomy Helmets<\/strong>:\u00a0 They have protected my head more times then I would like to admit.<\/p>\n Woodcraft cfm<\/strong>:\u00a0 Without these parts, I wouldn\u2019t have made it to any races.\u00a0 They went above and beyond to make sure that I had the parts I needed after a lowside at HPR.<\/p>\n Amour Bodies<\/strong>:\u00a0 Body work that fits and holds up to crashes.<\/p>\n Tachyon XC<\/strong>:\u00a0 Cameras that work every time.\u00a0 I recorded more then 30GB of video with two cameras this summer.\u00a0 Video that was fantastic for figuring out where I could improve and helped the students I filmed improve.<\/p>\n I also need to thank a few people for helping me out this year:<\/p>\n Brian, Thank you for putting up with all of my crazy ideas (moments) and letting me talk you into going to strange tracks\/places.\u00a0 For loaning me your bike for 3 races, (owner of Speedin Motorsports) also for working on my two broken bikes when we got back from Miller, as well as towing my trailer around to different tracks this year so I could race some other locations.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0I\u2019m looking forward to more trips next year.<\/p>\n Daryl for loaning me bikes for 4 races this year, supplying me with tires and helping me with so many other things during the race weekends.<\/p>\n Ray & Cathy: for the advice, company, coming to my rescue, feeding me and Brian, providing me a place to sleep at the track and for towing my new bike across the country.<\/p>\n Edda & Charles: for giving me a place to crash this year, and great advice \/ help with my riding.<\/p>\n Shane for spending time working with me on the track and loaning me his bike as well, it was a privilege to ride that super bike of yours.<\/p>\n John & Chaz for helping out in the pits and for all the small things this summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It looks like this might be the last race report for the year.
