No, that’s not me stalling out in the gate but I felt bad for the guy. I’m #741, White Helmet, Red & Black. I’ve been there; believe me, ugh!
Once thing I’m getting good at is my Holeshot. I got number two in this moto at Rupert. It helped that the rider next to me stalled out so I didn’t have to worry about him crashing into me.
Okay, what do I mean by the Holeshot, To holeshot means that you reach the first turn in the lead. It is one of the best feelings in mx racing but it also keeps you from getting killed going into the first corner.
I’m getting to know riders from all over the place; Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, Nevada. I think it’s cool to meet as many as I can and find out what they think. Most guys like to talk about their bikes and how they are doing but like life there are a few guys who think their you-know-what doesn’t stink. I guess if you’re better than everybody there you don’t have to remember how you started. I hope I never, ever get that way.
Failure isn’t to be Feared
“Failing is part of the success equation — there is no sidestepping it. In order to become great at a skill or activity, you have to first learn it, then practice it to become proficient. This means failing multiple times, learning from the failures and then adjusting behavior to go a bit further each time.”
Taylor, every time you race you improve. Great job. Looking good in those FlowVision goggles.
