I still don't have all of my Steel City pictures scanned from the exciting finalé to this year's outdoor motocross season - but I'll try to get them up soon...

Click here for what I have scanned already - more to come!

Here is one pretty good shot of me that Steve Bruhn (TFS photographer) from www.motonews.com got from the Women's MX League race out at Steel City:

Great pic Nikki!

Could some one explain to me why The only people I ever see wearing SoCal gear are always from the midwest?

SoCal gear

Where would one purchase such gear? I live in SoCal and don't have a clue where to go.

Nice form! :cool:

It really sucks that you crashed out of the festivities so early at DW. I was really looking forward to a demonstration.

Those red # plate backgrounds look sweet!!! Is that a Womens MX thing? I have never seen them before. Would look pretty good on my YZ.

He's confident in making that statement in that he's sure he'll never get lapped by you, being from the UK.. :)

It really was sad to see you hurt at DW, although I too have to admit to being glad about not being on the track at the same time :eek: How'd Byron go?

Thanks for the great help! The Tag Team MX was a major sucess.

Farmer John - AJ nailed it, SoCal is out of Sycamore, IL (however that works?!? did you know Rice-a-Roni is only made in Bridgeview, IL, also... the San Francisco treat?) :think

Cadillac - you can check out SoCal Racing/DeCal Works at www.socaldecal.com or call (800) 843-8244

sfc crash - Steel City is in Delmont, PA (western PA) & most of the mud was from the first turn - it was like someone took shovels full and threw it at you - fun :) Well... I was in 1st in D17 at the end of August - but missed a week for Steel City and fell into 2nd. Still had a chance at 1st but took a spill at DW01 and have probably fallen into 3rd place... so I'm a little disappointed. The season is over in 5 weeks. Look forward to seeing ya out on the track in '02!

marcusgunby - Thanks for the pointer :D

oldguy & Julius Pleazer - Yeah, I was bummed about being sidelined at DW - I was looking forward to doing some no-footers over the downhill double or something :p

KC_BigDog_51 - yes, the red backgrounds are a WML thing but I have seen some harescramble(?) guys with them before - they do look cool on YZs

Okiewan - LOL! We drove up to Byron and they raced in the pouring down rain with lakes on the track so we turned around and drove 3.5 hours back home :( The doctor said no racing for at least 2 weeks (bruised kidney/pulled back muscle) I tried to race this past weekend anyways - but just ended up doing 3 SLOW laps - never getting out of 2nd gear... darn woods!!!
