VA City Grand Prix - 2017

I went up this year to be on my pal Jason's pit crew for a 5 hour endurance dirtbike race, the Virginia City Grand Prix.  

There was absolutely no shortage of amazing photo ops, both at the starting line and in the pit... VA City is always a fun place to visit, and add in 500 dirtbikes on Main St and you have an amazing excuse to be there.

Way too many captions to try to write, so I'm making this just a gallery of my fave photos:

yes it was lit!

Virginia City Grand Prix - 4/30/2016

Virginia City, NV

Spent a very cold morning watching the start of the First day of the Virginia City Grand Prix race. 500 bikes, with a minimum of riding four hours to earn a finish. Mud and snow made for great track conditions.

The crowded Main Street

Dead last guy number...
