Default This weekends race

Ok those of you not in Cali this doesn't apply so much, but the rest of us had better get out there and do a honorary ride for the boys at Laguna.

I was planning on going down to Monterey, but my usual riding buds can't make it. So I am going to load up the fridge and spend the weekend in front of Speedvision. However in honor of the boys being in my neck of the woods I propose that we all get out there and drag a knee.

In particular I will be riding for Anthony Gobert, if he isn't representing Yamaha this weekend I guess I will.

Does anyone else have any nominations for riders we should carve it up for?

I have money on Ben Bostrom. He's flying this year and he's coming from a 2nd & 1st at the last round.

OK, change of plans. I am now going to go to the races on Sunday. Apparently at the last minute a couple guys changed their minds and we are going.

See ya there! Or maybe you'll just see me!

ok here is the latest plan. I just got a call from a buddy and we are going to be corner workers at Laguna! I am thinking this is going to be a good race!

OK, if you look on the inside of turn 9 during WSB #2 you will see me there. I worked the flag for that race. For the other races I was one of the guys that runs out and picks up the wrecked bikes. There weren't any crashes in turn nine, but I got to go pick up number 4 and 5 in WSB race 1.

Race 1 results
1. Ben Bostrom, Ducati, USA, 40'32.161
2. Neil Hodgson, Ducati, GBR, 40'33.498
3. Troy Corser, Aprilia, AUS, 40'35.084
4. Troy Bayliss, Ducati, AUS, 40'48.890
5. Eric Bostrom, Kawasaki, USA, 40'50.586
6. Colin Edwards, Honda, USA, 41'02.923
7. Ruben Xaus, Ducati, ESP, 41'05.610
8. Tady Okada, Honda, JPN, 41'06.532
9. Doug Chandler, Kawasaki, USA, 41'07.799
10. James Toseland, Ducati, GBR, 41'09.778
