I wanted to write a race report from this weekends mud fest but I forgot my camera at home. Although the race sucked, I got some pretty funny photos of the guys riding in trash bags to stay dry. Our pit area was under water and bikes and athletes were covered in mud. I gladly left my bikes in the trailer where they stayed clean and I stayed dry.
Vans Team Manager, Jerry Badders, made his come back to racing. Here he is doing someone dirty in the last turn. I am pretty sure Jerry is kicking this dude to qualify for the main event, but he might be kicking him because the guy is dressed as a Haro/Rockstar athlete impersonator. Either way, Badders rules. More photos later. -dB [justin kosman photo]
