OK, I'm a total stud. :diva:

Made my first complete laps around the track at Tomahawk. Got a little air. No training wheels. No wrecks. No children or animals were harmed. Rolled everything. Didn't even attempt a double. Flew no more than 1/2 of any of the table tops. Can't wait to go back,

And no wrecks.

'A' riders turn in about 2:00 or so and I know I was under 4 or maybe 5 because my buddy, who is an A, took no more than 2 laps to my one. :lol:

In any event, this makes me kewl... :yahoo:

Oh, you can 100% bet yer ass I'm all over that. My buddies are FAST. One had his pro license for a time. The other guy is racing C but should be B this coming year. They fly 100' tabletops, do doubles, some triples, rail turns, race hard.

And crash hard.

So, yes, I am having a blast AND I am very mindful of getting better slowly, over time. :buddies:

Right now, I'm still trying to just muscle memory where my bod needs to be going over singles while making sure I accelerate off the top and hit the gas when I land while.

I can't even think about managing if I am a bit hi or low and whether I need a little break or a little rev because I don't go anywhere near big enough yet and it's over to quick, but I try to feel where I am at and try to stretch it just a bit more each time.

On top of that, I'm on a crf230 which is NOT an MX bike. It has neither the power nor the suspension for this so, that is helping me concentrate on technique (momentum being a big one :lol: ) and being smooth rather than just horsepowering everything.

Fun as all hell! #### eating grins galore.
