A big thank you to NESBA, Todd and the whole CR crew who made this season at NYST such a great summer experience. I was there on Friday, May 10 to help set brake and corner markers, as we all got our first taste of NYST. I was there yesterday September 22 to wrap up the season. And I was fortunate to be there for a dozen NESBA events in between. Thanks to Todd, Dion, Murph, Kappy, Steve, Will, and Poper (sorry if I'm leaving a CR out), my pace and confidence have increased significantly on the track. Above all, the events were just plain FUN. I was also at NYST with four other organizations this summer, but I'm totally sincere when I say that the NESBA events were the class of the field for organization, direction, coaching and fun...not to mention the best food.
I know that NESBA didn't hit the attendance figures that they wanted (or needed) to make the numbers work financially, but it's a credit to the organization that you did not cancel a single scheduled event for lack of attendance. I know that had to hurt, but as a long-time member, I appreciate that commitment.
I enjoyed meeting some new-to-me NESBA riders this year. Jimmy, Rupert, Jerod, and Charlie to name a few. And of course I had a great time hanging out with and riding with old friends Dave, Marvin, Jacob, Brent, Chris, Chris, Jay, John, John and others. Of course thanks to Greg, his family and the whole NYST crew for creating and maintaining an incredible venue for us.
I know October 5/6 is not a NESBA event, but I look forward to wrapping up the NYST season with a few of you before we have to pack our toys for the season.
Lastly, I'm happy I was able to introduce a few people to the awesome sound of an Aprilia V4 at full throttle down the front straight!!! Sorry guys, all your bikes are great, but there is no sound quite like it
