The First Race!

So, the first race of the season didn't turn out quite like planned. I was off to a great start, but the second race of the day took a little turn for the worst. I was in 5th place at the time, feeling really good that I was going to place, when I came around a turn and my foot peg caught on the red and white part of the track and I went down at 104 mph! I am fine, just pretty sore. The knuckles on my left hand are swollen and bruised, but it's just a sprain. Everything came out amazingly well, except for my bike! The good part about it, is a photographer (David Foote) was at the right place at the right time and got pictures of it all! They're pretty good. Thank you David for letting me use the pictures! Feel free to check out his blog.
