Seattle SX
Great weekend for the whole Meusling family.BEAUTIFUL SUNNY WEATHER made the race very enjoyable. Low turnout of riders made it a little easier,yet very hard to make the cut in the 450 class.Same with moving on to the to the main. Neat to see a rider show up in just a pickup get to the main,yea we went up with just a bike in the back of a truck.
Most know about Mike Horban and his standin ride with H&H he also gets my pick for TOP NW privateer.

Nice of see you again,little distracted at these races. You need to come by after and hang out. We all went out to celebrate across the street at a kinda high class restaurant,party type guys from race wanted doors open with cool wind blowing in. We wanted doors closed,final outcome TWO Bouncers escort them out. They get replaced with another party group of 5 guys and 4 gals who I assume would be from the ADULT MOVIE industry.This entertainment goes from hittin on other guys at the bar,lap dance with one of the guys,photo shoot with two girls kissing,short dialog about current STD's,all this in a spendy place,guess us HILLYBILLY TYPE from Broadacres OR just aren't used to the Seattle lifestyle? Whole night was just GREAT,first ever Main in SX. JR

Nice job. The kid looked good!
Was Horbin riding an outdoor suspended bike? He rode great for having such a soft setup.

Just had our "Now What?
"talk and is looking like a road trip to Salt lake city may be comming up. Funny side to all this you guys don't see is the "Slave Labor".
We went out after the Sx race had dinner with the above mentioned show then kid drove us old folks home(WAY PAST my bed time)>, Had a late start on Sunday after gettin home a 3:30 so started at 9 but worked till around 8. Mon was a "NORMAL" day starting at 3;30 and just ending now (9;15)So YEA its time for another SX weekend!!! JR
PS Please DO NOT THINK this is complaining we simply "LOVE" our job!!!!!

JR, I have never met your son but I was rooting him on the whole way. REALLY REALLY cool.

Was cool to see Smail get that award, not sure what it was for as the sound system the 300 level isn't that good.

I got to have Bob Hannah re-sign a picture I had him sign in 1979.

I heard about Lance getting an award on monday.
They did the award before hardly anyone was in the stadium. Of course there wasn't enough time during the 4 20 minute breaks they had during the event to do it. Sheesh.

Got my $230 from racing the SX Lites at Seattle... what a bunch of bs the payout is at SX. We don't race SX to make a bunch of money but when race gas is $100, entry fees are $200, that's ridiculous to race SX for basically free...
