After loading up we left River Ranch with some good points and were on our way the the second round of the GNCC only a few hours away and only a few days after the first round.

We got to the track on Friday and set up the tent and I finished prepping goggles and gear and watched the boys get the bikes done and ready. After a short ride back into town on my new Trek I was ready to go for Sunday’s race.

Sunday morning came and after walking and bicycling parts of the track I was happy and excited to go race.  With tiny changes to the clickers on the RG3 suspension and one tooth bigger on the back sprocket I was good to go.   I got of to a good start and almost grabbed the holeshot, I quickly moved into the lead and tried to get settled in straight away, after half the lap I dropped back to second behind Thad, he was riding good and started to pull away.  Towards the end of the second lap I started to get going and started picking up the pace.  I still had a ways to catch the leader but was closing the gap, I caught up and was racing with Thad when he had a pretty gnarly crash, after stopping to check he was ok I kept going and got some faster times out until I had a good lead.  The last two laps felt fairly easy but I still managed to pull a little more time.  I took my second win of the year.

I felt good most of the day and still have a few things to work on but overall I’m really happy with how everything is going.

Thanks for all the support
