Hi All,

After taking to the half-mile oval at the Wauseon Vintage Dirt Track Races on July 15th, 2011, I got bit by the racing bug pretty bad (or good, depending on how you look at it.).  After so many years of watching Dale and his buddies have a blast out there, I was ecstatic to make quite a few laps on my 1924 Harley JDCA racer with the rest of the guys. 

It was some of the most fun I've ever had, and am already looking forward to getting back out on the track at the Davenport, Iowa 1/2-mile races this coming Labor Day weekend.

I just got this video in from my friend John Rhodes from Virginia, who placed third on his 1926 Excelsior Super X.  He had a handlebar mounted camera recording footage during the whole race, and got several great minutes of he, Mike Lange (#21X), and myself in the battle for second place.  The real racing starts about 5 minutes in, so hang in there for a few to see some of the best old bike racing around.
