Sprint Cross Country Series (SXCS) 2026 - RD1 - Wicomico MX & ATV - Hangover Harescramble

It was time to knock the cobwebs off the YZ (and myself) to take part in the Hangover Harescramble! Although the weather has been all over the place (evidenced by riding the stand-up three times in December!), this weekend had returned to typical winter temperatures in the upper thirties. With that in mind, I layered beneath my riding gear and donned some warmer gloves for the event. Since we're in the offseason, the event is extremely popular due to it being the sole opportunity to ride for many of us. In my line there were THIRTY-NINE racers! Although my Yamaha is kick-starting much better now that I've replaced the fuel pump, I still fully expect to be the last off the line - which was the case this time as well. Still, I slowly worked through the pack of riders and found myself in 7th place by the end of the second lap. On the third lap I turned a corner to find a tree right in the middle of my intended path! I was thrown from the bike, but managed to get back on and running relatively quickly. Later in the same lap, my bike stalled due to hard braking, which set me back a few seconds as well. With those two setbacks, I lost a position and ended the fourth lap in 8th, which was still a great result considering the gigantic field I was within.
