Orlando Supercross and the GOAT



This Supercross was a historical race. It was Ricky Carmichael #4's last Supercross race. Interestingly enough his wife had twins early the morning of the race and they flew in him on a helicopter to make the race. The crowd was on their FEET the whole time....I was holding Haden...Sheldon had my camera most of the time....he got some really swank shots. Bubba Stewart #7 came in barely, 1st with #4 behind him. Was a strong fight right to the end. Didn't actually think we would see any familiar faces down there....did come across a neighbor guy I went to school with. He is wrenching for Doug Dehann who happens to be Canadian. We also met another Canadian rider...from Quebec, actually...will have to get back to you about his name, I forget,,,,someone can comment if you know a Pro rider from Quebec!?!? Anyways, if any of you EVER have the oppurtunity to see a Supercross..DO the pit parties are a blast....everyone is pumped and the barbequing is a nice break from traditional sporting events. I couldn't believe I could actually have something not GREASE ridden!!!! YIPPEEE!!!!
