I just realized something,  We were beaten by an artist,  an art director no less.  Oh the shame.  I will have to lower my head at work today,  When will the horror end.

Joe?? He doesn't count!

As for the last lap all I could think about was how it must of been for Sully,  I mean to go out on the course knowing there were about 15 people, at the least, setting in the pits waiting to see if the hype was true.  Could she really ride?  
Knowing so much could go wrong.  What pressure to ride under for 24 hrs.  And to be sick on top of that pressure, man that had to be tuff.  
I don't think she could truly enjoy the moment, knowing we had a clock on her every lap.  But she was awesome as usual.
I know I go on about Sully, but we are going to throw this lady into the wild west that is Baja, without a pit for 200 miles, and all sorts of low life and physical dangers.  And she can't wait to go. lol


Thanks Dag....I still feel like I wasn't riding at my best...but I really appreciate that

The thing with Baja, there's much more prep time...hopefully I'll ride the sections before hand...plus, I'm comfortable/familiar down there...just gotta work on the speed thing

I just saw the team pic with Malcolm Smith.  I was standing 3 ft from him and I can't remember if I even got to shake his hand,  I don't think I did.

Sully's facebook.
I still have 2 video cameras full of footage, well over 3 hrs.  should be getting something today.  Tory had some work for school to do ,on his laptop, that had to be turned in this week, so he hasn't had the time to download.  Or so he says.

This comment was left on the weekend warrior story.  Pretty cool that AS has a DR account now.  they also sent me a pm about the upcoming fund raiser.  I think that is the New York office.

That black thing on my arm was to keep water from building up on my elbow.  I had drained it and the water kept coming back.  I hit it going over the ledge at Rynoland months ago and it didn't hurt but water collected on it.

Wow Dag! That is so impressive, the write up. I really like it. Alex must feel important, his name is mentioned right up top eh! Great job Again!

Nice shirts Six. I like them all..great idea too.

Dag, for all your hard work put into the As-Is racing team, to get to the 24H race..then racing, the last lap HAD to be yours...only way to have everyone appreciate everything that happened that day..then to see the leader come in with a smile.
