Intermission So this is life 1989-1998 The Drought  
 
Much could be said about the drought period in which I never even threw a leg over a motorcycle. Much is said on other parts of this web site, including the "is he serious?, "Kicking the MX Habit" and the sadly detailed, "History of the RABEFL".

But how does over nine years pass? I was quite active in mountain biking , although I only actually raced 3 times. I started and finished a bachelor's degree while working full time. I got married, bought a house, got insurance, all that regular guy kind of stuff. I would still renew my AMA membership and Cycle News subscription, and would still go to the National (and later the Supercross) every year, but I was convinced my racing days were over. If I couldn't come back after only two years, there was no way I could after ten years. I had accepted that my riding days were in the past and I was OK with that. There would only be 17 chapters in this moto-biography.
