Whats up with photos from the race?

There are some being posted on ECEA.org, but so far only the youth events. I think there will eventually be some from Sunday, too.

My wifer has a bunch of good photos from the morning event, but she took like 600 so she is still going through and pulling out the good ones for post-processing. When she's done I'll post the link here and at ECEA.org.

For you fast afternoon guys, I can't help you.

Sweet. Im just curious if the crabcake on my face is visible in any shots haha

Saw him do that and he was awesome.

Kyle is that Ormond Farms ?

Im hoping to do Ormond Farms. I heard that its been well used this year with NEOC but I'll try 'er out.

The Hammer Run is the 2-day dualsport hosted by Tri County. It is not to be missed.
Ormond Farms is a hare scramble in the same general area.

The hammer run is a load of fun. Its also very important to. Last december it was disccovered i had cancer, rough ride that was. Anyway i set a personal goal and that was to be healthy enough to ride in the event this year. Seemed impossible at the time because i even lost my bike due to the expensse of being sick.

As it turned out not only was my recovery remarkable but i also was able to buy a new TE449. Just goes to show you never know, dont lay down and give up. But now im pissed because after all that im going to miss it because my bike which is new is still screwed up, and ive lost 3.weeks so far of practice / conditioning. Hard to beleive after all went through just months ago a fried wire harness is going to keep me out of the game.

Anyone on the fence should go for it, great time and course. I broke a couple ribs ladt year when i ran it but i was pushing to hard for as tired as i was and got sloppy. Last time i ran it on a DR 650 and still ran up towards the front so i was really looking forward to see what i could do with a suspension and a drop of 120 plus pounds in bike weight.

Have fun boys ill be at the Hammer Run in Spirit

Thanks for the info. I don't know much about dual sport events but I'm willing to find out what they are about.

I watched some vids from last year's Blue Diamond HS in Delaware. Looks like alot of fun. Whos goin?

I'll be at Ormond Farms and the hammer run. Can't make the Blue Diamond. The Hammer run has been great in the past. Sunday being the better day, as far as single track goes.

I rode it before and it is really fun. I'm really planning on riding it if I can. It has some real unique stuff like a road course through an amusement park and some other stuff that will make your day.

Im gonna try my best attempt at supermoto style thru the blacktop but the WR isnt gonna grip like my old SuMo haha

I rode my KTM EXC 250 F in it and had fun. I just took it easy in the road section and made the best of it. The sand and stone hills, MX track,woods,clay,mud and all the other stuff I rode the last time made for a great time and I hope to do it again.

I wish I still had my TE449. I miss it. I would contemplate running that

Some other Husky (is this one of you guys?):

Not me lol. Dang Im still waitin for the main pics from that photographer. I know they took a couple pics of me but I dont think theyve posted up the main race yet. Anyone know?

Wow she took some nice pics man! Is she for hire for Ormond or Blue Diamond main? Lol

Ha! Yeah, she does good work. I'm not sure if she's going to shoot any more scrambles, and I'm usually so wiped after my race that I just want to pack up and get food. We'll see!
