Rain, rain go away!!

Mother's Day weekend brought rain which kept me home instead of competing at the Blackhawk Farms MidWest Region Double Points Weekend and the MidAmerica (MAM) Memorial Day weekend looked to be a washout also, so no racing.

The MAM weekend weather looked really bad in the Omaha area, so that with $3.75 per gallon gas, 5 hours one way on the road and possible tornados in the forecast another race weekend was spent at home.

I'm glad we made that decision as we would have been caught in some very severe weather on the way home which produced several tornados within a 30 mile radius of my home. That would have been a terrible way to end a race weekend!

There is a race at Blackhawk Farms next weekend, May 24 - 25 so Troy Walbaum and I are heading over to race Sunday in Lightweight SuperSport and Lightweight Grand Prix. This is a MidWest Region only race so it won't help our points chase in the Great Plains region but I need to get the bike on a track to check it and myself out.

Let's hope for a sunny day!!
