ok.. here is my first practice lap at the last race.. This was the first time I used the drift 720 cam. If you are wondering the video quality its not bad.. I put it up with a gopro but for $50 I can live with

Ok i am not one to push product, but i just got my backpack/hydration pack in today.. all i can say is way better then i thought it would be and for the price wow.. its got a 2 liters bag that fits in i think you can put a 4 liter bag in it if needed) the first pocket (from your back) then...

well crap my just got off the phone with my shock guy and he sold out and is out of the business.. now i have to find a new guy to tell me whats going on and help me get the quad setup.. ugh.. going to walk away for the rest of the day..
picked up the spot tracker on the 1st (should have rethought that road trip 459 miles in on day on the bike!!) but its up and running..

food is well food.. I am not into fish tacos but i am sure they will have something i will eat.. (bad experience just not going to go there anymore..lol)

Well now that icepocalips is over and I am home from Toronto . I should be getting out some. also having two months of no travel and lots of time off will help as well. I was ask to go do a GNCC race at Loretta Lynn's ranch in april that i might do just for "testing" lol..
