What's Hot
If not hotter than he is in his riding gear (is that possible?), Fred
Andrews stopped by to do a little promoting for Kawasaki. He was signing
autographs, and giving out posters all afternoon. Then he gave out
contingency to all the Kawi winners....I guess it pays to win...
Pitdog surprisingly rode in for an interview with Lane Sheppard. Pitdog
revealed that he keeps his "hot bod" by eating right, drinking light, and
working out all night. He had stuff for the Peewee riders and made the rounds
in the crowd before disappearing without a sound. Typical Enduro rider.
Totally HOT prizes were given away all evening long from sponsors and
dealers around Florida. Cary Hunt coordinated the gear, discounts, tires and
more. Lotsa great stuff. Thanks Cary. You da man!
A real highlight were the dedication posters to the three series winners.
Steve Van Meter put together huge pictures of the riders over artwork for an
awesome dedication to them. You da man as well!
All the trophies were handed out and the dancing began around 11:30.
After all that booty shakin', the party moved over into the spa as usual
until early the next morning.
What's Not
Paper airplanes with pointy noses flying around.
The PA system only working on the right side.
The ribs were gone before the line ended!
The spa, should be 100 degrees.
Getting up before 11 on Sunday morning.
