k on internet & finding Classmates in Nov03 and Missing GP High`s 25th Reunion by only weeks,What a Disappointment. but ive been touching base with old friends on Classmates. What a Blast!
Since 1980-83 & up, Larry had many multi Auto repair business Locations= about 30+ yrs Experience Now! and for 20+yrs seriously racing dirt motorcycles= motocross,cross country,Super Cross, indoor areana cross, flatrack, T.T. and some GP roadracing.
Ive always loved Motocross racing!
In 1995-2000 Our whole family Volunteered and ran the Ft Worth Cowtown BMX Track=American Bicycle Assoc. Track for 4-5 yrs a non-profit org. that was going to shut down. This was for kids to have a place to have fun. This was giving something back to society! It was an Awesome & memorable experience for sure! Sometimes it only fells like it was a Dream though! Was a Very Hard Job to do for No Pay ! Lynda was Treasurer - Secretary & Sign Ins & Concessions buyer, ( Larry was Track Operator-President of the parents assoc. & for 2+ years Also traveled building ABA BMX tracks all over USA by himself & Also traveling for indoor collisium Motocross tracks for Pace Motor Sports, ( Lynda & Brent ran the track w Volunteers while Larry ws out of town !
(end of 99-2000 Larry`s mother past away) and we also lost $20K from building our own BMX track and Larry had tore his ACL/knee from racing All in the same time of end of 2000 ) in Nov 05 Dislocated my left hip & had Surgery! Finally retired from all that, i may get back into a little cross country racing someday ? Maybe in fall of 08 ?? may not have the time, Boss has been in the hospital for over 10 mths & im running his business so its a little hard the have the time to do anything else !
Slowing down to smell the Roses Now? i guess , or just getting older? or maybe finally growing up?? Finally have time to do things i didnt do. Finally made it to my 1st Arl Sam Houston 79 Reunion this 6-5-04 little disap though, didnt know many people though, but really was good to see the ones i did know! and forgot about, 6-30-05
