Thanks so much for sharing the pics and media with us. This is a great step forward for the west coast riders and I enjoy checking out these pics. Seeing those So cal landscapes brings back memories of the invasion 2010.. I also enjoyed Mymint's TV article they posted on youtube.
Here is where my long useless list of stuff nobody cares about should go...
Proudly NOT a member of
"Team on the Teat"
Kinda funny thing, well I think it is. I live in az. now but grew up in south east side of san diego county out in a town called Jamul. The first race I found out that ol steve parfet was racing so I looked him up in the pits...We grew up less than a 1/4 mile from each other. Then at this last race I ran into Tom Decresente and I grew up with his nephew. None the less out of all riders out on the track I think like 5 of us all live or lived in Jamul. 3 of us grew up there as youngsters and were all racing trikes 30 years later. kinda funny? I think. Its good to talk with these guys filling me in on whats up in the old home town.
anyway I have a different view with go pro practice vid link http://youtu.be/8qj5eC9wRYk
