American Supercamp, Part 1
I just spent two days railing XR100s inside a barn with a bunch of Type-A racerheads and some bad ass instructors. I’ll write a full story asap, but first these photos:
 We started with a little speech and demonstration. |
 Time to ride! Those XR100s have plenty of gumption for a track like this. |
 Me, Lee, leading Fireman Jeff and Instructor Scooter — but not for long. |
 It’s all about body position. When you’re in the right place, these Donut Gems are effortless. |

The master. Riding with 7-time Grand National champion Chris Carr is like playing basketball with Michael Jordan. But I doubt Jordan would stuff you in a corner. |
Good stuff. More details when I finish the paying work.
Dang, all I can say is that I am truly, truly jealous. That meatball is a spicy one, no weak sauce to be found!
You know I remember going to family parties with Chris and the kids, but I havn’t seen him in a while. Good to see he is still playing around on the fun bikes! I havn’t seen him race since he won the Grand Nationals for flat track at the Sacramento Mile, I forget which title number that was. He trully is a first class gentleman and an amazing rider as well. If you like Super bikes I won’t tell you about growing up around the corner from Freddy Merkel…
Strange, I never thought I would know people of this caliber, but it is a small world at times.
Cheers-
Glad you guys had fun. Fireman Jeff invited me but it is a long way from Cal. Let me know when you are coming out here and i will set up a ride in the desert.
