Same here, had a blast last year. As of now I think I'll be there, maybe Rag Boy can get his s***t together by then and race too.
-
I though RAG BOY was coming to HBMC and maybe racing?
-
We still need a pit captain for this weekend!!
Come on all you racers, who wants to sit out this Sunday and get your pit duty out of the way? As Sir Charles says, "trade the throttle for the bottle".
Brian and I will be there Friday evening. Cousin Chucky is coming too, he wants to get his son started racing so they'll be there Friday as well.
-
There is a very good chance that Flow and Robby will be there and ptting. ;D
-
Yes its confirmed that Robby and Flow will be up for the pit duties this weekend.

That's great news Bill, I have the pit boxes and will bring an easy up. We'll be there Friday evening. Give them my cell phone 626-926-6077.
-
Thanks Don. Robby will be out Saturday mid day and Flow early Sunday morning.
-
I will most likely be over there Sunday AM, were spending Friday night and Saturday near by and plan to move over there on Sunday for the race.
And be on the lookout for one of these, a friend saw this one last weekend somewhere between Spangler and Burro's tunnel!!

Good weekend, despite the weather. Brian and I got there about 6:00 on Friday and found Julian/Gumby and the Jenkins already there and set up. Wet up camp and ran into Ridgecrest with Julian and Gumby for burgers at Texas Cattle Company. Back at camp and hung out around the campfire for some time, not too cold. Pam's cousin Chuck showed up (Joe Motocross on the board). Went on a short ride with Brian and Chuck on Saturday, then came back to get signed up. Chuck's son Luke raced the kids race, I'll post some pictures tonight. Let's just say I think we created a monster, that kid had SO MUCH FUN in his race on his PW50 with training wheels.Saturday afternoon saw Pete, Keith and eventually Flat Tire Bill show up. Then later that night Travis Livingston, John and little brother/friend arrived. So along with three guest riders (Russ' friends) we had about nine racers.
THE wind came up about 3:00 A.M. Sunday and it HOWLED, then it started to rain, unfortunately not enough to really soak the ground and along with the wind dried up real fast, but THE wind did not allow for a very good night's sleep.
Due to some problems at sign up the start was delayed about 45 minutes, and did I metion THE wind? Miserable sitting there waiting for the start in all that cold. Chuck decided to give DD a try for his first race so I volunteered to be "chase cuz" and waited for him right after my start. He didn't need me to chase though, within five miles he was gone, never saw him again! Looks like he liked it! I think he'll be back. The Diggers did an excellent job of finding fun and fast trails that were not all whooped out, I loved the course although I think it could have used a little more imagination and the wind wrecked havoc on the ribbon/arrows, I even lost the course once at my old man speed!
Travis was third overall, first in class, WAY TO GO TRAVIS, Looks like Gumby got another second in class and Pete did third and Brian fourth or fifth. Not sure how Russ' friends did but all got in O.K. and seeme to be smiling after the race.
AND THE WIND NEVER STOPPED!!! Don't know who the Dirt Diggers pissed off to get two straight years with gale force winds, but they should apologize before next year, without the wind it would have been damn near perfect.

The W/E was a blast for both Luke and I, but Tori and Mandy didn't have such a good time due to the wind. He was so excited to tell all his Grandparents and Uncles that he won trophy that had "a boy on it that went so fast it blowed his pants off." i.e. DDMC logo. I had a good time on the course and with the company. I certain we will return.
Donn, When I read this to Luke, He wanted me to tell you he has a TTR50, not a PW, lol.
And since I was the only 250 and under Senior Beginner I got a 1st in class. w00t :D ;D
Thank you all for allowing us to represent your club and wear the colors at the event.
Chuck, Tori, Luke, and Mandy Frozina

Got over to D D camp Sunday AM and saw most of the start and then moved over to the pits. Nice to see a good turnout of both racers and pitters. The DEZ was beautiful with the flowers and I even saw 2 tortises over near the "Cattle Guard", but the wind was brutal to say the least.
Nice seeing You peeps again!!
-
Did anybody say the WIND SUCKED? There was a 24/7 generator next to our camp (ran out of gas at 1:30 am got refueled and was still running @ 7:00am :(), rained @ 5:30 am (was sleeping in back of truck) so sat in cab til daylight and was really tired of the relentless WIND!!! Sorry if Tara and I didn't say Good Bye to everyone, but when the last member was in we were DONE!
Like Don said "The Dirt Diggers need to ask for forgiveness"

Sorry Luke buddy, didn't mean to slight the bike! Sure you two had fun, too bad Tori and Mandy got stuck inside because of the wind and that Pam and Tami weren't there, maybe next time they'll come out and Tori will have someone to hand out with, come to think of it Deanna was the only woman there besides them, unusual.
We'll keep in touch and see you out there again soon.

O.K. so here's a couple of Luke. Couldn't resist this it's just too cute!

Really hoping our guests had as much fun as these pictures show. Now Chuck, get your brother and cousins to come out and play with us!
-
That last one is great! He looks so happy. ;D

That was absolutely hilarious. The DD handing out the trophies just about lost it. He asked if Luke had been coached and I told him that was his first race.
-
Cool pics of a future Viewie??
-
Now that's what racing is all about!! What a cutie and he looks like he's ready for a podium pic ~ those training wheels make my ankles twitch though.... I have been run over repeatedly by those things at the Kids race in Ridgecrest. :o Congrats Luke on your first "race"!
-
You do notice that Dad Chuckie has a beer in his hand while talking to him don't you? Think he might fit in O.K.?
-
A couple from D D weekend.
First 2 are Adam, the mini-viewie, then future "washer" players, then a nice view of the flowers.
