She Did It!!!!!
She Did It!!!!!
Yes today was the day....LAURA SCRAPED!!!!! Or let me say drug for about 20 feet it was awsome, the landing does need some impprovment but shes there....Ok this one time at band camp I was watching Laura do a 12 and when she dropped back she landed on the tail and it broke she was like dragging on the tail light, it never went to the side at all it looked like she knew what she was doing..... she drug for like 20 feet and then chopped the trottle and came down hard, found the windshield and fell over sideways about 5 mph....she will be sore tomorrow but her bike faired great just a little scrach on the case cover, and an awsome looking tail!!!!!
It was a crash kinda day!!!! Gary found out that the roller needs to be a little stronger..... he came up fast and hit the roller and it broke, so he walked off the back and the bike tummbled....kinda flipped and landed on the saver. Nothing was hurt but his tail and his roller!!!! Thank God for frame savers. I guess I need to get some!!!:D
Everone walked away, and the bikes did great under presure. So looks like Jimmy its your turn.:D
Just for the record Laura's scrape sounded awsome. I will hear it in my sleep tonight. BIG CONGRAT TO LAURA!!!!!

Thanks all for the congrats. And YES it was an awesome feeling FINALLY scrapeing and it just kept on going and going. I thought I was dreamin' the whole thing but relised it wasn't a dream when I landed and smashed into the windscreen.
I will tell ya as I was scrapin' and hearing that beautiful sound of plastic scraping down I was pushing on that rear brake just trying to get it to go down and it just hung there I was like
(note to self adjust the rear brake lever up asap) and then I guess I finally chopped the throttle down thus the harsh landing. Oh well I was still happy to land it on 2 wheels and I am happy that I finally scraped.
As far as any pics. Nope don't have any
There were only 4 of us there today and 3 of us were riding and the other one had just set his camera down. I wish we had a camera rolling though because Gary's 12 was pretty sweet. He came up fast and started scraping and It was looking good at first but then I guess when his bar failed on one side he just stepped off and landed on his feet and his bike took a flip. His frame slider saved the motor from major damage that would have accured.
