Wish you had some more pics of the hot gal in green shorts with her hands on her hips. Could you hear Renner on the 125?

Last year was much hotter, and definitely a lot more people.  I spent about an hour and a half waiting in line last year, this year I drove right in, no wait at all.  I agree that it's likely the lack of real competition for Dungey.   It made it a lot more comfortable than last year.  Hey JWR, did you do the gopro on the helmet with the beer cans thing?  Saw a guy at the start of the first 450 moto with that setup and thought it might be you.


No i seen the guy too haha. Black beer helmet...i never ended up doing it myself.

I think this year was way hotter especially in the morning. The breeze kicked up in the afternoon. It did hit the 100 degree mark. Last year was 95-96 degrees. (big difference i know. lol)

Anyway as far as the wait to get in, last year was a screw up on the management's part this year they screwed up as well. Making everyone who wanted to stay for the amatuer races exit the park and re-enter, only after waiting in line to get back in! After seeing the line to get back in I said "piss on it" and left. I will never sign up to race or even watch the amateur races based on the way they run things down there.

I'll be there for my 2nd time.  Making the 7hr drive from PA.  Leaving thursday and staying somewhere along the way and plan on being there Friday morning to get a better camping spot than last year.  So over by the leap is the best party section?  I don't really remember where i was partying most of the time last year.  I'll be walking around in my american flag swimming trunks and some body paint with my broken collarbone.  Hope i can live without the sli

ng, don't want to get a tan line from it haha.  REEEEDDDDDD BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDDDDDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!

I would like to point out to the stewart nut huggers how bad he looked on saturday. He's done. I'm sure he'll make up all sorts of excuses, but he doesn't have the speed anymore.

they say 102..  sunday cooled down to mid 80s..   it was really freaking hot and humid.. I heard they had some riders go down the day before from heat.  Wonder how your trip to spring creak will be?   Last time I was there it was brutal heat and no wind, not sure what year seems like it was nationals when stew won supercross series.

Just looked it up and they are calling for 92

How is it getting into the track? Does it get backed up like RedBud?

It's in a valley, so not much wind to cool you off, unless it comes from north or south. I came in on 60 from the west, and left on 60 going east. There is different parking areas, we were on track side parked all the way far west like swamp field looking ground. Seems like they had parking to on the other side of the road too. It was not to bad when we got there, but I think we came in a little late because we were at the mall of America. Most parking was full, was worried but got there and found parking before race started.  To me looks like they do not have as much parking as redbud, but I could be wrong.  Leaving was crazy, not as open or organized parking as redbud. It was a nice drive down 61 to La Crosse on the way home. I sure like to go... I am still exhausted and burned from redbud..

That blister just tells me that he hasn't been riding like everyone said he was. Riding with a blister doesn't really hurt until your done riding

I was expecting much more out of k-roc this weekend..  needs to spend off time training with dungey.  He needs to look at this mx & sx op as 5-10yrs, he might be done.  plenty time to play after.  Maybe I am expecting more then he can deliver. :D   Musquin is looking more & more impressive. :)
