Arizona Results - Day One
RSS Feed
People will tell you how hot Phoenix is, they'll say it's 120 degrees in the shade and you can fry an egg on the sidewalk, but until you actually leave the climate-controlled hotel and step out into the sweltering desert, you won't actually know how hot it is. The temperature being about 300 degrees yesterday, we found some interesting ways to keep cool. At the site — a speedway that happens to have a 30-foot-deep lake — people bought water-spraying fans, converted shirts into headbands with redneck cut-off sleeves (they looked like freakin' cavemen), and in Rusty Malinoski's case, just plowed their head into a cooler full of ice water. People got creative.
Riders started spaying down the rooftop rail before their first pass so they wouldn't stick as badly to the surface (salt water combined with that kind of dry heat turned that baby into gum), we had a raging pool party at the hotel.
The stage was set and the bar was raised high for today. The riders who didn't melt into the pavement advanced on and will do battle on the speedway waters for top honors at the final stop before the final stop. Here are the standings.
