We're hitting the after party with Carey Hart!

What a day! I woke up yesterday to read an email from Hard Rock Hotel's Nightlife Supervisor. We are hitting Wasted Space, Saturday, May 8th, for Carey Hart's official Super Cross After Party! Man, i am pumped for this! I wonder if Pink will be there? Are they still together? I have no clue.

Here's Hart hitting the backflip at Xgames 02. Remember, a backflip was still a pretty big deal back then.

Just so you can compare how far the game has come, here is X games 09, 7 years later.

Quicky Vegas Updates....

Of course, we're still looking for a couple sponsors. Need someone for the SX after parties on Saturday night. Looking to hear back from Ghost Bar and HOPEFULLY HRH will get back to me. Them and Tao, i swear, next to impossible to get a hold of. I'm not arrogant enough to think I'm a big shot and they NEED to get a hold of us, but wouldn't it be bad ass for everyone?

Looking for a clothing sponsor too, so if you want some T-shirts in these Vegas pics and videos, hit me up. hoping the hometown guys at Anycal will come thru.

Oh, and hotels peeps, someones gotta want to comp us rooms, right? As of now, were taking advantage of Planet Hollywoods great rates, but free is too good to pass up. Someone make our trip!

Welp, off to check my lotto ticket to see if I'm a new millionaire!

Ms Cleo has nothing on me....

Seriously! Look at the post from 2 weeks ago. C'mon now, thats pretty good right?

So, if my prediction sticks, we should have a random winner next week. We will see.

You see, this is why motocross and supercross are so incredible. For the most part, the riders have no idea what the track is gonna look like until they get there. And after that, the track changes lap by lap. Thats gotta be rough. I bet the SX at that new stadium in Dallas was amazing. I'm gonna have to see that place and the "godzillatron" soon.

Like I've said before, I expect this to be a RV/RD battle, hopefully coming right down to the vegas race for the crown. I wonder what the season would look like if Reed and Stewy hadnt gotten hurt. Some might believe we wouldn't even be talking to these two, but I'd disagree. I think the gap is closing. Of course, all things equal and healthy, I think JS7 would have ran away with it, but i think these 2 up and comers would have made some noise, fashow.

Review of last week and well wishes...

First off, I want to give our condolences to everyone at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Vegas. They lost one of their top executives today in an apparent suicide. Just goes to show that nobody, no matter how successful, is immune from depression. Stay strong, HRH. We hope we get a chance to visit you guys soon to see all that Randy had accomplished.

On a lighter note, my SX prediction grew even stronger this week, as RV continues to tear up the field in the heavys. Grant Langston took a very scary crash on the super tough Daytona track this week.

Here's my opinion moving forward. I think your going to see the season turn into a RV v. Dungey battle from here on out, but don't be surprised to see guys like Alessi and KW venture into the podium every couple weeks.

This is an exciting time for SX fans. i remember going to races a while back and knowing if RC or Bubba, in their respective times, got the holeshot, it was game over. It's great to see 2 riders of the future step up with Bubba and Chad Reed out, though it looks like Reed will be back soon.

Man, the trip is getting hella close. We nailed down visits to the Mirage and Caesars, and are currently working with The Palms and hope to hear from Oakley and Racerx soon.

Thanks for all the support guys!

working on that all important "to-do" list...

Sitting here tonight working twitter for more sponsors for our trip. i got a lot of room to fill, including a restaurant each night, another club or so, some more shows and some day time activities. Also working on an apparel and optics sponsor. Hope these guys see how hard I am working on this and how serious I am, big thanks to those who do already!

So here's some cool ideas, kinda like a Vegas scavenger hunt:
-Pick up a poker chip from each hotel
-Take a picture of the crew in front of every place we visit
-Run into one of the SX racers
-Meet a celebrity
-taste the best margarita, micro brew and steak or ribs on the strip.

What else? Nothing too scandalous, I've got a fantastic reputation to keep, haha!
