My Uncle the Stud - Motorcycle Racing at the Miller Motorsports Park

Mark evaluates the task at hand.

It's such a breath of fresh air when you get to work on your own personal projects! Last summer I took a break from weddings and went out to the Miller Motorsports Park to shoot the Endurance Racing.
Teams of two ride for 90 minutes and whichever team records the most laps wins. It was so much fun! I'm going to try to go out there again this summer so if anyone wants to go with me I'd love the company!
I was mostly following the team of Mark and Jason Woodbury, my uncle and cousin. I believe they were 2nd place in points for the year. Jason caught his foot underneath the bike on a turn in the very first lap and couldn't go on. He usually races 2/3 of the time so it was a very tough physical feat for my 55 year old uncle. I was very proud to have been there. At one point near the end they took a break for a crash. You can see the fatigue on his face as he decided whether to go back out and finish the race. (Main image above) He did. He was a stud and scored enough points to keep them in the hunt for the title!
