*Sigh*... When you're forced to change "the essence of who you are"

I'm starting a pool that says not this season.

And Kurtz... you're really gonna go there right after your bike blew up haha?

First blown motor ever for me...and it happened while Steph was riding it.

Insert comment about Kurtz not going hard enough.

As everyone who's ever seen a motorcycle race knows, you can't see faces on the grids. All there is to see of the riders is a mixed up sea of flashy helmets, leathers, paint jobs & race numbers. And only one of those rarely ever changes: A racer's number. It becomes the rider's identity. It's who they are. Hell, Jackie even got "I <3 82 Forever" tatooed on her asscheek this past fall. Okay, not really... but it's totally plausible! Okay, it's not even plausible. In fact there's absolutely zero chance in HELL that she'd ever do that... but the point remains! People HAVE gotten tattoos of their favorite racer's numbers before and hell, if I were into tattoos I'd probably have an 82 somewhere on my body (Maybe I do? Bet you'd like to know...).

But alas, it happened. Historically CCS reserved a racer's number till mid-late January, but not this year. And I missed it. Mised the deadline by... ONE... SINGLE... DAY and some other heartless, dirty, no good, low down (presumably not affiliated with LDR) sunuvabitch stole my number. The 82 is gone for... who knows, maybe forever. Time to move on.





So what's next?

Time to go one place faster, that's what's next.

Oreo's got a new name...
