Yeah, everything is fine...
Got off my line, refused to back out, low sided on some black ice... No kidding, that track was like riding on ice.
In better news....
I will be riding Joe Klingler's Yamaha, and Kelly George's handshift Indian at Knoxville... My bikes get the night off.
I'm just a little excited for Knoxville kids,
Josh

Knoxville is shaping up to be pretty exciting with several the GPFTS racers headed there. Chance and Jeff will be in the modern open and hopefully Michael W joining them. Tim is planning on riding and I even heard from a lil bird Tom C was wanting to climb on one more time. Can't leave out Bill racing in the Bultaco vs Ossa race. And of course representing their great state and GPFTS- Josh and TJ. Saturday night will have Aaron and Michael competing. Overall looks pretty good. See you all there

Should be a real good time, I will have a video up soon of that 250/360 race.
For now I'll add in the narrative.
During the lineup I was ahead of Josh. I figured he had a much better chance of winning the race than I did, so I moved over a spot and gave him the better lineup.
Now they were flagging kind of weird and Josh got a real good start, It was Trail, Adams, Baber, Cheney and me off the line. By the end of the first lap Cheney and Baber were up Josh's tail pipe, By the third lap they were a full straight away ahead of Josh and he was putting some distance on Adams.
A couple laps later we came into turn 2 and I saw Josh on his side, I let off to see if he was ok. Gave Adams a little ground on me too. (After the fact, Josh said he thought we were much closer than we were and wasn't about to let me catch him, let alone pass him while he was up on two wheels)
A little after that I caught back up to him and was gonna give him a pass on the inside but we came up on some lap traffic and I let off enough to get to the outside of him and he got boxed in and I passed. We then come up on a downed rider in 3, and coming out of 4 I see Cheney slowing down so I let off and Adams flies past me on the white flag. The rest I'll let you wait for the video and you can wonder do I pull it off with some B.A. riding, or does he blow a corner letting me skate right by....
