    Supermoto5280 2009 Race Series

    Supermoto5280, a new Supermoto series based in Denver, Colorado would like to announce the 2009 schedule.
    Newly formed Supermoto5280 was created to fill the gap left by the former Rocky Mountain Supermoto Series.
    This new organization is looking forward to a safe and successful season of racing with a class structure that
    will accommodate all ability levels and machines.

    This series is very beginner-friendly, and is encouraging new riders by offering separate categories for beginners and women.

    You are more than welcome to run a dirt bike as it is. The guy who did it last year won the sportsman's class for the season! You could also just get street tires for your dirt hoops to keep costs down.

    No, Alan (lstzephyr on SMJ) on an ancient XR600 went to GJ and got double points, and beat everybody out for the season. I got first at PPIR. Hopefully there will be a few more Sportsmans races this year.

    Ah, my evil plan is working...
    I invited a coworker out as well yesterday, taught him where the throttle was, and after 20 min of putting around, he said he's going to sign up for the msf course! Soon everyone will be on a dirtbike, and the world will be a happier place.

    Glad you two came (finally!).

    You're pretty good at getting people hooked on motorcycling. I don't know about the dirt bike thing though...

    Re: Supermoto5280 2009 Race Series

    I wanted to remind everybody that the first race is NOT at IMI, and definitely NOT on the 19th.

    Please remember to NOT show up, because it is NOT fun, and certainly NOT addictive.

    NOT even plain old dirtbikes with plain old dirt tires are allowed.

    NO further information can be found at:
    www.Supermoto5280.com

    Hope to NOT see you there!

    (If anybody doesn't understand the sarcastic reverse-psychology, then you probably aren't smart enough to load a bike into your truck and make it out to IMI anyway.)

    Sorry Joe, but Jenn and I will be working at the MRA new racer school this Saturday and we will NOT be at the Pueblo Chicane Trackday on the 19th. Good luck on your first race. Let me know if you want to rock the CRF250r however!

    As tempting as the CRF is, I better not. Have fun playing with the big bikes. I will beg and bribe you to haul my arse over to Grand Junction April 26 or Sept 13.
