A few friends and I went down to Budds Creek, MD for the Vet and Vintage race day. We left Friday 4/3 and got back Sunday night. Had a blast, finished 10th overall in my class.

Here's a few pics and a link to some helmet cam footage of my first moto.

I just finished completely rebuilding this bike with the custom paint and rims.

Thanks everyone. That track is in the National Circuit, in other words, the Pro's race there. So it was cool to ride on the same dirt the guys on TV do. lol Had a blast.

Oh, and the Budds Creek cheeseburgers ROCK!

Here's what it looks like when a national event is going on.

Well, congratulations on your finish, HC! Looks very dangerous. And dirty.

Glad you had a good time and returned in one piece!

Thanks everyone. You have two races (motos) and they average your score out for your overall finish. I placed 7th in my first moto, then I was doing pretty good 5th or 6th in my second moto then I went down...lol. It took a second to get my bike started, by then pretty much everyone passed me. I wound up 15th. It doesn't matter, I had a blast! Seeing all the old bikes, great weather, can't wait for the next one.
