I have been asked many times why I still race motorcycles. Most ask; “When are you going to grow up?”, and I fear that they are only half joking. While generally considered young still at thirty three, I regularly find myself racing against, and to my dismay, getting beat by competitors literally half my age. When I broke my clavicle in April, the doctor was kindly enough to point out that the healing time for “guys my age” could be as long as three months. So why do I race…

Let’s face it: racing in any form is expensive business! Machines, parts, equipment, gear and entry fees just begin the list of expenses relating to racing Motocross today. With gas prices approaching $5 a gallon, some racers will have to take out a loan to tow that toy hauler or drive that mobile home to the races. Motocross bikes are seven grand a piece, and that’s before you…

Some of us Desert Lovers are forced to race other venues as a function of geography. No matter how much I love racing in the desert, it is just hard to find good patches of rideable desert in upstate NY. So until global warming catches up with the empire state and gives us some dunes, I must travel the northeast in search of two wheel thrills and practice for the next Mexico trip. These racing disciplines include Hare Scrambles, GNCC, Motocross, Enduros, Hill Climbs, TT, Flat Track and Snowmobil…

The other day I get a question emailed to me, asking what it is like to race the SCORE Baja 1000. This rider has always dreamed of racing the Baja 1000, but is hesitant because he has never been down there or witnessed the race in person, and knew that there was no way that watching the race on television could prepare him for what it was really like. The popularity of the documentary Dust To Glory created a lot of interest for amateur racers wanting to g…

There should be a completely different category of life experiences for racing the SCORE Baja 1000. It impacts you on so many different levels: socially, philosophically, mentally, physically and unfortunately financially. When we went down, we stayed at a waterfront resort in Ensenada called Estero Beach . This place was just beautiful and the staff was great.…

Next step in your journey towards a successful run in a SCORE Baja 1000 race is getting the right equipment. Here again you will get a lot of different advice depending upon the people that you ask, and rightfully so because there are a lot of different ways to skin this cat. My personal approach to choosing the right equipment was not to re-invent the wheel. I sought out the most successful people and teams and tried to learn from their experience. Rider equipment: This is usually the part th…
