Motocross Racing at Miliken

So this past weekend I had a motocross race at Miliken which is located S. of Fort Collins. We got there the Saturday for practice and we camped out that night for the race the next morning. 6:00am rolled around and it was time to get up and go for a run and get warm and eat a light breakfast. After that I got my gear on and went out for practice and figured out the fast lines and started to mentally prepare. A couple hours went by until it was time for my class to race which is 250 C. So there I was sitting on the starting gate waiting for the gate to drop. The 1 min warning was shown to us and then the 1 min board was turned sideways indicating 30sec. 40 of us were off. We all came flying into the first corner banging bars and fighting for position. As soon as I realized it I was 5th and could see the leader only a couple bikes in front of me. I started sweating and breathing hard and freaking out be cause I was passing guys and battling with them. It was the last lap and I was third and second place fell down and I passed first on the hair-pin corner. I came flying through the last corner and realized I had won my class and I was full of excitement and happiness.
