    Is that an Aprilia SV550? That's a very, very cool bike, especially to me coming from motocross! Was it able to keep up with those bigger bikes? Anyway, last one is my favorite as well; great take!

    Re: WERA racing

    Absolutely! They haven't built their pro track yet have they? I assume they'll be doing this more like a vintage style MX where it's natural terrain with a couple little jumps scattered in? I am so pumped... I haven't seen an MX race in person in a few years, how sad! In a perfect world we'd have Bob Hannah fly in on his P-51D race plane, then run the MX race on his old Yamaha. Man wouldn't that be awesome; we can dream right?

    You torture me with anticipation! I'm not sure I've mentioned how much I love MX... my brother and I used to race ourselves, back about 5 years ago. We've been to the Atlanta Supercross 7 years in a row, and in 2002 we drove up to Ohio to see the Kenworthy's MX - the same season in which Ricky Carmichael went undefeated (the first time; he did it again in '04). At that time, Ohio was the closest race to here. Today I think it's somewhere in Texas. Not close to say the least (~10 hours driving for anyone reading). Barber building a pro track and presumably bringing AMA pro MX here will be AWESOME, both for me personally and for the region as a whole - the Georgia Dome sells out ~70,000 people every year for Supercross.

    I can't wait... I'm so pumped about this weekend! And I'm going to bring my 1956 Ricohflex so I can get some shots with a period camera as well.
