Hey Everyone!!!

  Well, this weekend was pretty  amazing!

   We headed up to Winerburg Germany for a German National Race, and they were also holding a slopestyle there.

    Mick ended up winning the DH race!

  Cannondale hooked me up with a chase frame the day before we got to the competition.  I really wanted to go ride the sloplestyle, but it’s been almost 3 months since I have rode at all.  On top of that I had a new bike to get used to, and I was the only english speaking person there, so I didn’t know how or who to ask about the course.  It was deffinently a very lonely feeling. 

  I went over to the course a couple of times trying to work up the courage just to go for it, but it wasn’t happening.  I was praying that God would send me someone who I could ride with, and on my second time over to the course I ran into Carter Holland from Black Market Bikes.  He was that person I had prayed for.  He helped me out a lot by letting me follow him into the dirt jumps. 

  I didn’t start riding till very late in the day due to the nerves I had, but when I did, it was Awesome.  I got to pull a couple no-footed cans , then I had to head back to the hotel.

  The next day I worked on my regular cans, and pulled my indian cans for the first time on dirt, then I moved up to my supermans.  I was really stoked just to be pulling those tricks since I hadn’t ridden for so long.

  I guess you could say I competed, but it was more just a dirt jump session for me.  I didn’t get the chace to ride the rest of the course, so  I just hit the dirt jumps and pulled a superman for my run.  It was a Huge step for me to get out there with all these amazing riders, and a very large crowd of spectators, and do my thing.  But it was Amazing!

  There is a verse in the bible that says that in our weekness, God’s Strength is made strong.  So I know I can say God showed up for me that day!

  Have a wonderful week, and be Blessed!!!

Hey everyone!

  Hope you all are well. 

  I just wanted to get in a quick post.  We are in Germany at the moment at Daniels Hespellers parents house, on our way to a German national.

  Mick got 7th at the Vigo world cup.  We had a really good time there. Except for the massive down poor on the last top 20 riders.  It was pretty crazy to watch.  But it made for some interesting moments for the racers I am sure!

  Italy is wonderful!  We got to settle into our new house for a few days before we left for Vigo.  It is a very cool place, and we feel very much at home! 

  Thanks for all your support, and we will see you on the road!!!

                                            RIDE’N ON AND ON!!!
