Godspeed Connor Lafrance. Unfortunately to have good news there must also exist bad news. And, this is sadly the news of that sort. A friend of the Supercamp crew lost his life early morning on Saturday September 22nd. Connor Lafrance, who we had nicknamed "Ginger", was doing what he loved most -riding motorcycles. In an email forwarded to me with the following pictures I think his father, Dave, put it best. "You know he passed doing what he loved -going 100mph with his hair on fire!" His family has informed us that they will be setting up a racer scholorship fund along with already having committed to sponsoring a young rider with Connor's RS125. We miss you Ginger, we know you will be watching over us while we ride.


New Schools!!! We haven't been posting like we should, but for good reasons. (Well, one good reason.) The first reason is....well, we have been racing. We can't help it. It's fun, but also very time consuming. Not a good reason, but what can I say. The next reason is we've been doing schools. Which isn't a good reason either since hotel rooms generally have internet and all I do is veg out and watch tv at night on the road. But, there is one good reason. We have been busy trying to set up new schools. As you may have seen we head to Tecumseh, MI for the first time next week. We also added a Greeley, CO date to Aug., and we are going to Mototown U.S.A. in Windsor, CT in November. We have also been busy setting up the Chasing A Dream program. Stay tuned for all the gossip.

It's Official, We're Ten Years Old. It is a done deal. The anniversary school in Greeley, CO was awesome. Three schools, back to back, and it could not have been a better six days. So many repeat students came out to support us it almost seemed like an all-star school. El Presidente' Fuji came from Seattle for something like his 6th school. Of course our favorite Texan Dick Ford was in the house, what up Mr. Ford. Forrest and Heather made the short trek from Boulder. Forrest cracks me up. The guy rides with us once a year and expects so much from himself. Dude, you go good, enjoy it. Our favorite former NBA star Nelson came out as did James "Rocket" Rispoli who should be a challenge for the Horizon Award this summer. Scooter taught that kid what shifting was! My boy Chris came down, and J.D. stopped by for four days. These two kids Mitchell and Michael were back. These kids don't say two words the whole time.But, they definitely let their riding talk. I can't go on. There were so many familiar faces it would take me forever to tell you about them all. EVERYONE WHO CAME OUT -THANKS A TON.
