News of the Day

Well, it's official.

Mikey Hernandez has asked Junior to be a part of the new VOS P~1,2 squad. Waaaaaayyyy
cool!

He was all set to ride for the Lombardi U23 boys but nothing ever seemed to come of it.It would have been a good team for him, three of the strongest juniors he's had to race against, and with, over the years but things just didn't work out.

But now he has the perfect opportunity for growth and developement with Mike. If Hernando can't show him the ropes no one can. It's especially cool 'cause Michael has been Micah's hero since Junior got into racing about 5 years ago. Olaf used to live in Reno and was the guy who always crushed our poor little bike club when he raced for the Mighty Reno Wheelmen. We've since forgiven him. They've always had a good relationship as Mike LOVES to talk bike racing and I've always instilled in our
yoots to ASK QUESTIONS, especially ask those who know what they're talking about.

So now he's taking the next step to see how far he can go with racing. One day at a time, eh? Daddio is jumping up and down and trying to stay out of the way, (that's got to be the toughest part) and couldn't be prouder!
His grandpa is all excited as well...he used to race a Lotus sports car so can certainly relate. That's the reason I HAD to race Sea Otter this year, (see earlier post).

Now that he's going to be on a new team, maybe I can grab some of the AMD stuff!!!
