After dropping Chris, Sarah and Joel off at Oklahoma City airport to fly back to NZ, Josiah and I drove two hours north to Ponca City to get in line for three days to get an RV hook up at a motocross track. Ponca City is the venue for the NMA Grand National and is one of the biggest amateur motocross events outside of Loretta Lynn's. We arrived Thursday so we could pre-register the RV for a hook up (it is on a first come first serve basis). Then they move the RVs in on the Sunday.
On Saturday just gone Andy, Lee, Olly and Laura arrived. It is great to see them.
The race format at Ponca City is two motos with the top 15 from two divisions going through to the final event which is this Saturday. All three motos count. Josiah is only racing one class (85cc stock bike 9-11 age) and had his first moto today with his second moto on Thursday. Josiah got a great holeshot in his moto and finished third. The kids in Josiah's age group are very fast. riders in the other division are posting phenomenal lap times. Olly is racing two classes, 65cc open through 11yrs and 65cc 9-11 mod. Both his classes are Wednesday and Friday (US time).
Posting photos at Ponca City is a problem as the internet connection is super slow so I may or may not get them on.
Will keep you all posted during the week.
Bye for now

When do you come back to NZ?
Oh no I missed it! I missed wishing you a very happy 41st. Soooo sorry. Happy happy birthday. I hope you had a great day and got spoilt by your family (if you allowed them too!!) since they were still there for the big day. Been thinking of you lots. Hope you are doing ok now that Chris, Sarah and Joel have come home. Hope Josiah had some good racing this week. We look forward to hearing the results. We are into calving now with 90 odd cows in and a shed full of calves. The kids winter sport is nearly all finished so that will help to make things easier over our busy time. Take care, loads of love from me.
