From Barry-

I just wanted to give you guys a check in from Australia. I left the states on Dec 31st and arrived in Sydney Jan 2nd. No New Years for me. Had a long 2 weeks in Sydney doing the XBR series (coaching and racing). The first week was coaching for 5 hours a day for 3 days. The second week was 5 days of racing 9th-16th. I ended the week with 2 crashes 3 podiums and a win, the Aussies have some loose turns over here.

We also had “team” races during the week. 2 motos of team racing each day. The teams were XBR, Redline, Crupi, and DK. The XBR team consisted of Stephanie Barragan, Danny Caluag, Luke Madill, and myself. We (XBR) took the team overall win at the end of the week and I also got the racer overall for the series. Australia has been great and still have another month to go.

First 4X race is this weekend. I’m going to try and start doing race reports for the 2010 season. I have a lot of different stuff going on for 2010 so I wanted to keep everyone in the loop. If anyone does not want to receive reports just let me know.

Also if anyone has about 10 minutes of spare time. I have posted a video on my website from the whole XBR series for everyone to check out.

Big thanks to everyone for all the help in 2009,
