So what do you do after your Annual doctor visit reveals you have 3 hernias? You go racing, that's what ya do!

Well with surgery scheduled for the 10th of April and the NESC opener 2 days before, it was a no brainer. Get some seat time before you miss part of your racing calendar due to recovery time. Now I am not big on NESC racing any longer (now a certified super evo racer) it was good to see some of my best friends when it comes to racing, if i can only convince them to buy vintage bikes...

Franky's bike, could use chain 'n sprockets but he chose graphics instead

Practice met us with cold temps and a soft track. Rust was still evident when I hit the track and was lucky enough to chase my friend Gino around and have a wick "sand"wich, courtesy of Gino's rear wheel, for breakfast.
Gino and his Honda, don't worry he also has a 90 KX 500
