Chasing these bears is always a kick in the coin purse.  There are 3 chances to win a bear. First for day one’s overall,  second for day two’s overall lastly one for the overall of both days combined.

Day 1.  Moto 1 had my smoothest ride and my best start at the event.  After the start I was in the mix of the top 3.  Went back and forth with the group and even raced for the top spot for a second.  I have never been that far up so that was an absolute blast for me.  As the moto went on the pecking order settled and I finished in 5th.  Tying my best finish ever here.  Moto 2 had a decent start and was in bearitory but ended up spinning around myself twice then kept making little mistakes fading to 11.  Bummed after how well moto 1 was but that was good for 8th on the day and my first bear of the trip!

Day 2 fight.  Moto 1 average start but made good moves.  At the bottom of the first downhill there is a 180 right that goes up another hill.  Was on the outside looking up when a rider pushed from the inside and swept my front wheel out.  Second photo shows me looking up as last place rides away.  With a twisted up front end I put my head down and rode.  With 8th on day 1 every position counted for another bear.  Came last to 15th when all was done.  Moto 2 was feeling pretty funky.  Left knee hurting(still is), right thigh feeling a deep bruise forming and a bit nauseous.  An average start then just kinda blanked out.  Every spot counts.  At the finish everyone in my pit said they had counted me in 8th.  15-8 put me at 11th on the day so no bear.  8-11 for the weekend was not just good but good enough for 9th place bear for the overall! 

Thank you everyone!  To those who came out and cheered you were amazing!  THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!
