This weekend was rd 4 with IXCR at King of the Mountain, we had a plan to race the rzr in the sxs race but after it broke last minute we decided to take the talon. We got off to a decent start and was able to start moving towards the front of the pack on the second lap. Then we got a flat toward the beginning of the third lap. We made it through that lap but dad wanted to push through to see where we could finish, turns out we could have stopped and kept second but we went ahead and finished the last lap to secure second! Luckily the flat was the only damage.
Sunday started off rough with a broken valve core in the rear tire of the bike, we were lucky to get it fixed with only about 5 minutes to spare. I got off to a decent start, but things started going south again with a couple get offs on the first lap after a couple guys went down in front of me with no where to go. I started charging and got into second pretty quick. I maintained well until the last lap, shortly before the finish I got greedy and was pushing through the dust and missed a whoop with my front tire which put me in the dirt pretty hard. My foot is a little tweaked and the kill switch and map button is imprinted on my chest. Hopefully we'll be ready for the next one to see what we can do! Thanks to those following this journey and the support!
