    Laguna Seca 2013

    I had a pretty good time at Laguna Seca. I was there for Mark Marquez's epic pass on Rossi, through the dirt in the Corkscrew. I got to meet and talk to a ton of people: Josh Hayes, Cameron Beaubier, Scott Russell, Larry Pegram and others. I love how accessible the AMA Pros are. I can't think of a better way to spend a Sunday afternoon than sitting on the hill watching the best riders in the world lap the best track in the world. IMO

    Awesome!!!
    That is something on my list.

    Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear.
    I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
    And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
    Only I will remain."

    No, I didn't go trackside to watch the e bikes. Maybe the are the future, but I'm a Luddite. I want to hear engines when I watch racing. I did talk to Eric Bostrom as he was leaving the podium after his win. I was asking him about Ben Bostrom's Rock n' Road challenge at Copper Mtn in Sept. I really want to do that and I think there will be a lot of AMA pros there. I asked Josh Hayes if he was going. He has a schedule conflict, but if he can resolve it, he'll be there.
