Scott Kraker and I had quite an adventure this weekend down at the Cornhusker National in Kearney Nebraska. We started our trip on Friday morning at 6:20am and headed south only to run into a serious skating rink on 35 from the MN state line down to Ames Iowa. We saw approximately 30 car & trucks in the ditch, 10 of which had rolled over many times. We also saw about 6 jack knifed semi's and horse trailers as well, very scary stuff. We arrived in to Kearney at 2:40pm just in time to make our cruiser practice. We decided to practice Friday and race Saturday & Sunday. As we arrived in Kearney we were greeted by tons of our Minnesota racing family. All in all Minnesota did really well down there in Open, Cruiser & Class. All The Racing was represented by Scott Kraker, Logan & Tanner Paige, Tom Rixen & Paul Springer. Saturday evening was an incredible 73 degree's and sunny. Most all of the Minnesota people hung out together in the Ramada parking lot on Saturday night. Most of the evening was spent discussing how Doug Knollmaier thought the All You Can Eat Steak Buffet was the best restaurant in the world, this was heavily debated. It was an incredible experience and super fun traveling with the Minnesota BMX family. The results of the ATR Team are below:
