Team. The track was O>K> but didn't like the the third straight it was like speed bumbs the whole way. The track was pretty long and with the air being so dry and hot my lungs were burning. But all in all a good race. We got 2nd in Factory team which was great.

Well the worlds has been and gone and I came out on top. It was a lot of fun especially because my family and a lot of my bmx friends were there. Was very exciting to watch them all. The track was great. The starting hill very big and intimidating. The first time I went up I just went OMG. I rolled a few times just to see what it would do. You got air even when you didn't want it. But I got more used to it after a while and tried to go faster every time I went. The track itself was pretty good and I got good speed. The rythem was a different story. Well it is always the same actually. There are always a couple of steep once in the mix that brake your flow. As always lots of crashes there. But I figured it out quickly. I was a bid nervous this time. So Sunday came around and I checked motos. Had easy motos. Won all 3 rounds but I knew my main competition was in the other moto. She had 1 and I had 5 in the main. She got me out of the gate but I got her before the first turn. She had the inside so she came out ahead. Picked her up on the second straight, but I didn't shut the door on her so she got me back out of the turn. My rythem was great and I flew by her. Was ahead out of the turn but missed a couple of paddles. She got close but not close enough. Everyone was very excited. Of course I was. It was a great race with lots of action. If you want to check it out you can go to bmx-videos.com go to worlds 2009 then girl cruiser 40-44. I will download more pics soon.

Well it has been a week since the Bakersfield National and I am still pissed. The track was fine but it was one of these tracks that if you had an inside gate you had the advantage. Especially if the riders skills were pretty equal. The gate was flat and I ride with a pretty high gear. So my gates weren't the best but I have the power. I wasn't worried if I was behind one rider but two is a different story. Sat I got gate 8 and my main competition was in 5 and 2. So I was third in the turn but got momentum to move. Then I got blocked and had to pull the brake. Killed momentum. Got speed back up in the rythum section and made my move in the turn to pass one which slowed me down and another rider past to get second and I still ended up third. Sunday was stupid. Guess what gate I got !! Seven. the other two riders got 1 and 2. Every time I was on the inside I beat both of them. Well I just went into it got great momentum and was making my move on the outside. I was just going to pass one rider but I caught the lip of the double and made myself crash. I am still mad at myself. Then someone told me that one of the riders, who doesn't like me , was at the finishing line laughing at me crashing. What a bad sport. All I have to say is fuel to the fire. I am working out much harder and will be so ready next time we all meet. Nothing is going to stop me now.
