Pre-Season "Training" Testing and MORE from Troy Herfoss.....

June 14 2008

G'day Mate, 

Well....it feels like forever since the final race at Morongo last year doesn't it !! Lots has happened since then, I have been home and enjoyed a nice Aussie summer. I didn't get to ride supermoto at all, but I sure have been able to make up for it here in Wisconsin.

After the Moto-X World Championships I went home again for one month before I came back out to Wisconsin where I haven't felt the sun burn my skin once.....

SuperMotoOnline note: Yah hey there guy!!   Yess, the "sun" has been well hidden behind tornadoes, lightning and thunderstorms these past few days out there in the land of cows, cheese and Budweiser, as I'm sure Troy can attest to...

It has been crazy out here but, when Mitch said Chris and I would be doing some road racing this year I figured the odd track day. I have done maybe 10 track days in six weeks and we are racing Road America again this weekend and Miller next weekend, so we have been very lucky.

Dennis, you want here about training? pffft you guys don't wanna here about that! You want here about how about how nice the Aussie girls looked this summer and how the Fosters tasted!!
It was all gooooood. hahaha!!

SuperMotoOnline note #2: Troy knows exactly what I mean by "training" apparently! Good Job Mate!

As for supermoto, I've burnt up every second hand tire from last year that we have. The most fun I've had on a Supermoto bike is at Shawano.....(USA International Raceway where the AMA visits August 24) with the softest dunlop we got after about 50 laps, it's more like riding around every dirtracker's dream tt track!  It's been really good to have the extra 450 guy to push me along a bit......the team has stayed the same pretty much, with a few extra guys around.



Well that's it for me.  Seeya in Seattle...............Troy
