2025 Kawasaki KX450: First Race

First race back from a KO last May: Why not head to Glen Helen Raceway for a couple gate drops? Besides sleeping off the gate and making more than a few rookie mistakes on the opening lap, going from 7th to 2nd with the leader (492) in sight by the end wasn't too shabby. Ended the day with a 2-1 in 30+ Masters, had fun, and got to hang out with awesome people.
