Tanglewood North Carolina National

Put another weekend in the books for the National Bicycle League's National BMX racing season. With gas prices killing everyone's wallet, it was the smallest national I have been to. 106 motos on day one and 90 something on day two. Usually, this is a 175-200 moto national.

Day 1 got off to a rough start. Pulled 2nds in class all day until the main and had to settle for a third. In cruiser action, started off the first round with a 3rd, but 2nd and 3rd rounds I came back to pull first and eventually winning the main.

Day 2 was a little different in class. 3rds all 3 rounds of motos and then put together a great lap for a 2nd behind my team mate. Cruiser was all first.

The team didn't gain any ground on the team leaders, however, we did win both days of team comp.

The Tanglewood facility was awesome with a lot of shade, stuff for the kiddos to do and great volunteers!

Next stop is the USAC U.S. Championships in Waterford, MI. Should be a who's who for this race and the winner gets their own U.S. Champion jersey!
