A quick update from beautiful Kansas City. We made it here without trouble. We were a bit worried due to the huge ice storm that hit a couple of days ago. We're taking a bunch of pictures and will post some when we get back.
The scene was spectacular this morning with a couple of inches of ice on all the trees, power lines and everything else. The B races were today and we watched them all. The course went from icy for the first race to a mud bog for the last race. We didn't even ride the course when it was open because we weren't equipped to spend two hours cleaning up afterward. It will be very muddy tomorrow for me and Tanner. There's snow predicted Friday night and Saturday morning, so Doug could have even more fun.
Mike Kracht raced the 30 - 39 B race and had a good showing. He actually led part of the first lap and finished 26th. It was fun to watch him give a huge effort.
The course and our hotel is next to the Kansas Motor Speedway. We rode our bikes over to take a look by going around the closed gates. We were soon chased off by a fat guy in a security truck. I guess guys in Lycra are not welcome.
