So we had our national this weekend. I had a bit of equipment failure (came unclipped) and missed the main. Not an excuse, I just had some bad luck. Shit happens. I should have been able to get back on the gas and keep my lead.



Anyway, after snapping my class and pulling every single round it made me think..."hmm, I have a ton of reclassed pros in my class that are up to 6 years younger than me. If I`m having to race younger pro level riders, why not turn Vet Pro and race people my own age?"  LOL. Well, a few people (very fast people) agreed with me. So.....



I have a checklist of things I need to be able to accomplish in one lap at the track. Once I get them all picked off I am going to turn to the Vet Pro class. Racing expert is cool and all, and much respect to the guys in my class, but I never got the chance to race pro as a kid. With a bit of work I should be able to at least be 5th in the semis, and I`m OK with making the guy in 4th sweat a little bit!

Wow...it`s been a while since I`ve written a blog!!



I`ve written about motivation before, and it`s what I`ll wirte about again. For a while there I was simply motivated to be on my bike. I was down due to a medical condition and it was all I thought about.  Now I`m tired of having the excuse.



It`s about time I really manned up and got where I need to be. It`s time I let go of my comfort zone and stretch out to find my potential.



For those of you reading this that are still very young, learn  one lesson from me. Never lose your passion. Never let go of what makes you believe in yourself to your core, and never let anything get between you and your dreams. As corny as it sounds, it`s the real deal. If you have a dream, chase it until you either get it or fail, but whatever you do NEVER abandon a dream or stop trying before you get there. I have been on the edge of some huge successes and because I let go, I also let go of the passion.



Ignoring who and what you are is to be miserable. Don`t ever let go.
