first place

i am still very excited about the race this weekend. if you havent heard, i raced my dirt bike this weekend and i won first place at an arenacross. i am so happy about it. here is how it went down.
i got to the arena early saturday morning to get the bike ready for racing. right before the practice session started the bike broke. it couldnt be fixed on site so i was in trouble. my friend/mechanic found me another bike to ride for the day. i was nervous about riding someone elses bike. the bike belonged to a pro rider and i didnt want to crash it.
the first race went like this. i got the holeshot, which means i got out to the first jump from the starting line before anyone else. then i lead the whole race. after getting the holeshot i was so excited i could have gone home right then and been happy forever. i had no idea that i would win this race. i still had one more race for the day. i felt like maybe i just got lucky the first race so i didnt raise my expectations.
the second race was much different. i didnt get the holeshot. another guy got a pretty good lead on me. i tried as hard as i could even tho i was still not comfortable with my borrowed bike. each lap i tried to find the fastest line and i gained on the leader inch by inch. on the next to last lap i got up to the leader. then on the last lap i twisted the throttle and passed the guy in the air on a big jump. i held on for the win. i was so excited. i could hear the crowd screaming for me and it helped me win.
i collected my trophy with a huge smile. i took it back to the hotel and slept with it on my bed. since then i have taken it with me to the movies and to the grocery store and to church and to school and to the office and to france and to... ok i went to far. i am proud of my trophy tho. i actually havent seen anybody to show it to so i will post some pictures of it on myspace.com/brockgill
i had so much fun. it was a real dream come true. i think it was one of the best days of my life
