The Smokefree83 Team and the Project Filter crew was on site for the 2009 Big Nasty Hill Climb. What a cool experience! An estimated fifteen thousand fans and several hundred riders were brought together for the three day event which was sponsored by Project Filter.
I climbed the hill for the first time ever on Friday night. I will have to admit I was a little worried as I sat against the start block for the first run. My first run wasn't quite what I had hoped for but it got the butterflies out so that I could get down to business. I made a total of four runs for the two classes that I competed in. I improved on each run and ended up with a trophy for third place overall in my class. I didn't make it clear over the top, in fact, there was only one rider that did make it on a 250cc machine (the reigning champion Shane Donaka). Although I was happy with my results I was wishing for one more run.
I spent the rest of the weekend working in the Project Filter booth and supporting Matt who competed in Saturdays events. Matt had a great weekend but I wont steal his thunder , you'll have to read his blog...
I had the chance to sign some autographs and talk to several of you about the Project Filter Program. It is always fun to get the chance to meet and greet. I enjoy helping people understand and being able to share the benefits available to them through Project Filter. Thank You for coming out.
This event wraps up the 2009 racing season for me. I want to thank all of you who came out and supported us, Project Filter and the Smokefree83 Racing Team.
Thank you Project Filter for offering this excellent program for the State of Idaho and for your sponsorship support this season. It was incredible!
I may ride in the Annual Turkey Race at Owyhee Motorcyle Club in November, Ill keep you posted.
Other than that, "See ya next season"...
