[QUOTE="firecracker22, post: 95318, member: 20316"] Exactly. That's why I am racing women's for now--the beginner classes frighten me! They are more prone to a.) take each other out and b.) are less likely to want to be passed by a woman and MORE likely to make a target of her because she is a woman! I’ve heard of guys trying to take out gals in PRACTICE just because they didn’t want to get passed. Now it’s true, they do this to each other too, but a ponytail sticking out from under a helmet is like waving a red flag in front of a bull for some guys. Plus, since my bike is a 200, that limits me to Open Beginner (full of squids on roach bikes), Up the Hill (full of hotshots on fast bikes) or 250 Beginner (squids on bigger bikes than mine). I’d get used for a berm in any of these classes! So my career plan right now is: ride women’s this year and maybe next. I don’t know how much competing I will be able to do since between covering events for my job and pitting for Steve my weekends are pretty full all year. But as soon as I’m more comfortable, next year or the year after, I’ll go buy a 125 and start in the 125 class. I’ve been to some races where they had a women’s beginner and a women’s sportsman class. Not a whole lot do though and it wasn’t an AMA or CMC event. [/QUOTE]
