would you be interested in coming over here friday or saturday and riding at lake hudson? there is a riding area with miles of trails and a small tt track. it's fairly rocky except near the river bottom. i haven't ridden there in years but everyone that comes out usually has a pretty good time. it's probably about 60 miles from you brian.

Enduro_nut will be at the 500 on Saturday. I'm hoping to be able to shake loose and meet him.

Oldmaiconut, have they been watering the track? The 500 is probably pretty dusty, isn't it, Craig? I don't mind rocks, Jay. I'm amped up to ride. If I ride rocks, I'll hold off on putting the new rear tire on though. Wellston would be fun for Sunday if they have watered the track.

Dusty, dry-slick too.
Trail conditions are ugly, but the weather is primo!

The track has been in good shape the last two weekends. It's been watered and disced except for the first downhill section. I guess it's too hard to get the equipment down in there. There are some wicked braking bumps and a tricky hard pack corner down there. The rest of the track has been loose and tacky. I'll be riding IT AGAIN sUNDAY.

MX547 and I met up at a small track near Inola yesterday. It was fun but hard packed and dusty. We then went to a trail area near Lake Hudson where Jay got a pinch flat and ripped the valve stem off the rear tube. I had a great day but I was so sore this morning that I canceled a trip to another area. I hope to feel up to going to Sooner State in Wellston on Sunday.
I tood several hard landings on the hard pack track and I really feel it this morning. Jay looked smooth as usual and seems to be regaining his tempo. I could tell he was truely enjoying being back on a bike. :ride:

there's a large grass fire about a mile south of us. we followed the first fire truck out. when we got there, the fire was in the industrial park and was only about an acre. within fifteen minutes it had jumped the railroad and five lane highway and was heading towards town. when we left it had already covered about two miles and several outlying subdivisions were evacuated. it should go east of town, unless the wind shifts, so we should be okay here.
