My friend Kevin talked me into entering the Nitro Arenacross event in Mesquite Texas. The track prep couldn't have been better, though I was definitely intimidated by trying to learn the rhythm section with only 5 minutes of practice time. I knew I had to dig deep and get the courage to hit those jumps or get mowed over by others who were braver than me. This video was compiled from practice, heat races and main event footage in two classes; bark buster and 450 beginner where riders from the 250 beginner and 40+ are also mixed in with me. I blew one start by making the newbie mistake of being too close to the gate and in the main event I overshot one double and got to kiss the earth because of it. The hardest part of my day was sitting still for 5 hours in the cold stadium and then jumping on the bike at 9:30PM to race though it was a blast and I am glad I did it.
