Round 4 of GNCC resulted in another trip to South Carolina. I am about to have that drive memorized. Haha. Thunderstorms early Saturday morning made for conditions absolutely epic on Sunday. A few mud holes here and there but it would not be a GNCC without it. Sunday turned out to be a beautiful day with warm temperatures.
I got off the start line quickly and was top 4 going into the woods. I got passed not too far in. I hung with the front of my class for most of the lap until my passing skills and getting through the traffic failed. I am still learning how to be urgent yet smart. Going through packs of people like that is nothing I have experienced anywhere other than a GNCC. I lost sight of the front pack. A few wrecks on lap 2, aggravated my fractured foot and I fell back some more. On Lap 3, a few more wrecks and I started to get tired. I have not done much endurance work/training for the last month and I could tell. I finished P5. Every race, I feel like I am remembering what it is like to race and not be out for a joy ride. My results have not showed it yet but I am racing better than ever.
GNCC’s honor a Moto Hero every round. Broc French was nominated for this round and received the award. Broc is a long-time customer of us but is more like family. I am grateful for his service. This was well deserved and earned.
