 Round three of the National Hare and Hound Series was this last weekend in El Centro, and for me it was all about Redemption! I needed to make up for what happened last year in the mud, and I needed to keep the strong finishes alive in order to stay with the lead pack in the points chase.
We have had a few weird curveballs thrown this year, with Kurt nearly DNFing and Kendall actually DNFing at round one, so the points are tighter than ever and I am going to do everything I physically can to stay within reach. I was pretty disappointed with the 5th at round 2, and knew that with a good start I could make things happen here in El Centro.

 Round two of the National Hare and Hound Series was this last weekend, and after a great start to the 2011 season, I was eager to have another shot at the podium. Things aren’t going to be easy this year in he NHHA series, as we have about 6 guys who could easily run up front on any day, and as I would learn at Round Two, I was going to have to be on top of my game to be up there with them. The start was a little bit overgrown, and I really couldn’t pick a good line on Saturday. We decided to just get the morning come, and select a line that was as far from the rest of the fast guys as possible- I won’t be doing that again!
My line ended up being pretty good, but the overgrowth of bushes really made my overall speed suffer. I worked it in pretty good pre race, and packed my line down hoping to get a good solid start, and from there it was just up to me and the bike to get to the front before the banners.
My start was way right, and I settled in behind Destry about half way down the bomb. I did get a 1st kick, so my jump off the line was good, but I just had to go further than he did and ultimately got stuck in his dust. Kendall and David Pearson led off the start, but they were way left and didn’t go through the banners like Destry and I did, I felt like that too might have been a huge advantage for them.

 Round one of the National Hare and Hound Series went just about as good as could be this last weekend. I feel like all of the months of preparation, and everything that Ed, my dad, and Tuner have done in the garage have paid off, and I am proud to say that I got myself and all of my sponsors on the podium for the second time this year.
With a ten round series that has no throw outs, it’s important to get as many points as possible as soon as possible. The goal this weekend was to get on the podium, and with the start that I got it almost didn’t look like it was going to happen. But, I knew that it was going to be a long race, and anything could happen as the race wore on.

 This past weekend was the 8th round of the National Hare and Hound Series, and up until this point I just felt like I was locked into the 5th overall position forever. No matter how well I did, Destry and the guys ahead of me seemed to just get enough points to hold me off. But 90 miles into the So Cal National, and things started looking up!
My weekend started with a stop Bessemer Mine Road where my dad was going to get some work done for the final National in two weeks. Kyle Bristol and I rode while Ryan and my dad worked on the 100’s race. It was a good morning and definitely much cooler than the rest of the weekend would be. We got back in around 3 PM and went into town for lunch before heading out to Boone Road for the race. Every time I get to eat at Adelita’s in Lucerne things seem to go well. We were hoping that this week wouldn’t be any different.
