Another Week...Another City

This blog entry comes from 35,000 feet up above as I travel to Motocross of Nations (Or as Chris calls it, Motocross Des Nations) in Budds Creek, Maryland. This trip came up last minute and I seem to be making every motocross fan very jealous (cough…Corey and Chris).

The race is a gathering of over 30 countries from around the world, bringing together the best riders from each country. Several of the riders race in the AMA but will ride for their home countries, such as Ben Townley who is from New Zealand. The race for the coveted crown of being the best of all the nations dates back over 50 years. It’s been exactly 20 years since the race has been to American soil and for industry people, it’s a pretty big deal.

Anyhow, that’s where I will be till Monday when I travel back West to Las Vegas for the Kawasaki Dealer Show. It’s also a pretty big deal and people have been planning this for several months. Held at the glamorous Mandalay Bay, I get to make sure everything goes according to plan with the rider appearances and their part in the huge presentation. Awesome! (P.S. I am not a huge fan of Vegas and I’ll be ready to come home on Thursday)

Lastly, I wanted to thank my beloved friend Dani for traveling with me to the last race in Monterey. It was great for one of my close friends to see exactly what I do while I’m on the road. This was a special race since it concluded the race season. There was much celebration, especially since Roger Hayden won the AMA Supersport championship. It was the most intense race of the season and it ended great for Kawasaki!

(One more thing...as we flew into DC, i got to see the capitol lite up from the sunset with the Washington Monument leading to it. Oh man, it was breath-taking.)

Check out this site. It has a photo of me under the tag of Road Atlanta... http://automotophoto.com/

Below are some pictures from the race and hopefully my next blog will have more pictures from the biggest race in the world

I sincerely miss all of you and hope you will comment on how I can make this blog better. I write it for you guys so you know I’m still alive in the midst of all the craziness of my traveling.

Dani and I just outside the garages. We were so cold, but still ready to pose.

Here is my brother Chris workin' it for the camera. He was running the handle bar mustache all weekend.

I love Ben's helmet. "Love the Fight"

This is the hottest umbrella chick on the starting grid. Don't let the other girls look down at you. You're HOTT!!

Here is Roger Hayden coming up to the podium to accept his number 1 championship plate!
