Dirty Motocross

Time to get out the Q-Tips. My camera was a casualty of mud sprays and splashes at motocross practice at Mission Raceway:

Some of the action that progressed until sundown:

  1. Fun action shots! But, I don’t envy your camera clean up task ahead.

  2. Yikes! I would hate to see what the photographer looked like after too!…haha

  3. I’m not looking forward to the clearing of sand either…. you know the joke about picking out sand from the cracks for days afterwards after being at the beach? haha Yeah, like that…!

  4. I wiped the mud off my face as I felt it getting slinged on, but my hair was nothing other than a matted mess coming out of there. We went to Wendys afterwards, and apparently they don’t have a cleanliness code because we weren’t turned away!

  5. well it seems you did get close to the action

  6. Looks exhilarating, have you ever tried it yourself?

  7. A few good minutes spent with some cotton swabs and a dish of water did wonders to restore it to almost good-as-new condition. Definitely worth the time for the fun that it was!

  8. I have trouble enough on a bicycle that I’m keeping both wheels on the ground with. No, I haven’t tried it myself… anything that catapults one into the air sure is fun, but some coordination is needed and I think that’s where I’d fall short!
