First off I'd like to thank Mihylo33 for cramming that extra bike into the back of his truck for my dad and I'd like to thank Jackson409 for bringing his wife's YZ85 for me to ride with out these two awesome guys I wouldn't be bringing you this ride report.

-Friday
My dad and I arrived around 10:30, Mihylo was already there with his son Hollywoodkid, they were just starting to set up his camper when we arrived. So, we helped him finish. Around 11:30 Jax and his son arrived he got his camper all set up and we started unloading the bikes.
I got my dad going on Mihylo's TTR125L, and I got Jax's YZ85 warming up. Everyone else warmed up their bikes, suited up, then hit the peewee track to warm up their bikes. after the peewee track, we headed over to the big motocross track, which was rather muddy because it kept raining on and off.
After the track we all decided to head out to the trails, we found out quickly that only the most open areas were dry, in the woods there were puddles ranging anywhere from a couple inches deep to over a foot deep. So, staying out on the trails did not last long. But, before the ride time was over we all decided that we were gonna try to find this crazy looking hill climb that we could see from our camp.
(I have no pics from the first day)
-Saturday
The free MX class was today, Everyone who was there Friday minus my dad signed up for it it went 9-4. There were 3 instructors including arenacross rider Brock Sellards. They divided the 40 or so people that signed up into 3 groups beginner, intermediate and experienced. Hollywoodkid, ShortShift and I all went into the beginner group, Mihylo and Jax went into the intermediate group.
The beginner group worked on body position, corners, picking good lines, and starts,
The bird walking off the track after breaking a clutch perch
yamadogyz and jeremymach2015 showed up at 9:45 so they missed the sign up time by 45 minutes.
Buckrun showed up around 10 and contrary to popular belief buck is a FAIRLY normal guy
Since they all missed sign up for the MX class they went out trail riding, Jeremy has vids.
Once the MX class was over Jer, JYD, my dad and I went trail riding, after a little while Jer and JYD peeled off and went to the track.
My dad and I continued trailing riding. We go seperated and my dad turned down the wrong trail and ended up in the back 40 of the property on Mihylo's TTR. So, the man hunt began, we had most of the guys that were there out searching for him, JYD even had the CC workers out searching for my dad. After an hour of searching and asking people, the workers were able to find way out on the trails with another guy, both were having trouble getting their bikes started.
Saturday night was fantastic, Chef Mihylo and deer aficionado Jax made dinner for us all. Mihylo made some sweet italian sausage meal and jax grilled up some marinated deer steaks Both were delicious
-Sunday
Sunday Morning i started riding about 10:30 I rode for about 20 minute and was reminded by my dad that I needed to go sign in for the day, so I went and got my peewee track and trail wrist band, came back and got back on the track going the opposite direction. I didn't even make 1 full lap and had a gnarly crash.
Watch at 23 seconds in the vid here and you will see what i crashed into.
knee right after the Accident
Knee after being sewn up
After it got sewn up the doctor was still worried because I was still feeling pain after being injected with lidocaine, so I had to get an X-ray, Turned out i have 2 hairline fractures on my patella
I'll try to get X-rays up soon
Hopefully the other guys will be able to fill you in on the gaps (missing pics and vids) and the rest of Sunday, I had to sit out, then left early to get my wound sewn up.
But in the end Everyone had a good time.
I'd like to thank Mihylo and Yamadogyz for really being the key planners of this trip and I'd like to thank the NoToil guy for hooking us up with all of the free stuff
