Warning! Serious stuff in this next couple sentences...


Lost another one of my guys this weekend. He was sick all last week, called out Friday and Saturday, then family members found him non-responsive on Saturday. Thats the 2nd co-worker I lost in the last 6months (I supervised both of them), and 3rd friend. 2012 has been a terrible year in my life and I'm ready for this ish to be over and move on to 2013. Hopefully better times are ahead.

Pete, sorry for your loss.

Pete, sorry for your loss.

Sucks to have to say that once, let alone twice.

In other news, I'm voting for James tomorrow.

I guess they're officially going to let cars run on that track. The last I read was that it strictly going to be for bikes. It's nice to have another option in a reachable distance.

Nothing like lapping with construction equipment out on track...


Hopefully they're gonna add curbing and some barriers before the track opens. A line of trees isn't exactly ideal, this isn't 1960's F1 racing.
