Results from this morning's Messilla Valley Circuit Race..........

WOW - what a day out there this morning! Yesterday, it was beautiful and sunny........today, it was beautiful.....but it was also pouring down rain with strong winds!!! It made for some epic conditions out there at this morning's 6-lap Messilla Valley Circuit Race.........and 12 riders were brave enough to come out to take part in the event!! My hat goes off to all of you - that was amazing......to watch!!

Let me first give a GINORMOUS Thank You to Christa Ritchey and Forough Molina for bringing out birthday cake for the riders and myself - I can't tell you how much I appreciate it - thank you so so much!!! That was totally cool - and very unexpected - and very appreciated! Thank you!!! And a HUGE thank you to Rich Thurman for driving the Sag vehicle at this morning's event - and keeping the riders safe!!
