'Love Not Riots' will be returning to the Reading and Leeds Festivals to try and 'cuddle out' the threat of Sunday night trouble.
Two festival fans from Kent have put together a campaign to try and combat the riots and violence that have marred the final nights of recent events.
Zena Gardener and Amy Last joined forces last year to try and end the burning of gas canisters, torching of toilets and the attacks on stalls which had blighted the last few events.
The duo have the backing of the festival's promoter Melvin Benn who praised their hard work in 2006:
He said "I am extremely pleased Love Not Riots are back. I am certain their efforts last year contributed to a reduction in the disorder.
"Zee & Amy are such wonderful people and care so much about the festivals that it would be impossible not to welcome them back with open arms."
This year, the peace pair are again preparing to give away campaign badges and sell t-shirts with the Love Not Riot logo emblazoned on them.
They are also giving volunteers the chance to help out too by dressing up in their wackiest party outfits and heading to the campsites.
Their campaign is obviously having some affect as arrests at Leeds Festival dropped from 21 in 2005 to just 8 in 2006.

As I checked out the news items that chess.com offers, one game from the Spice Cup caught my attention. The opening featured a Maroczy-bind type of structure, which I play and therefore was interesting to me but what really was interesting was the endgame rook vs. four pawns. The immediate thought was that white must be winning - the pawns were not far advanced and the white king was in their proximity. This intrigue pushed me to explore what the objective evaluation was in that position and in the overall endgame. Here, I present this endgame by dividing it into parts, each having a specific topic and plan. This article continues the series on Initiative in Endgames.
Part 1: White tries to coordinate pieces but has to sacrifice material to do so.
Balogh, who is playing white is up a pawn - this is a big material advantage for a late middlegame, early endgame. As compensation black has the annoying Nb4, a rook controlling the d-file and the super-powerful Bg7. Moreover, white's dark squares are weak and the knights on c1 and d1 need some time to get onto active squares. I would say that black has compensation for a pawn and uses this temporary initiative, which is due to better development to cash in for some material.
Part 2: How to stop the c and b-pawns from rolling?
The situation has drastically changed: white's knights got into the game and the b- and c-pawns are ready to move. What was the price for this harmonious regrouping? - An exchange. It is not a high price if you look at a scary c-pawn, which might queen in four moves. It is up to black now to decide how to fight white's initiative. I think black must exchange the Bb6 because the bishop helps the pawns to move forward and also because it is the only piece that does a good job defending weak dark squares in white's camp. Black opted for another plan: block the b-pawn from moving by a5. The drawback of this plan is that a5 is located on a dark square and white can win it after which three passed-pawns on the queenside would be extremely hard to stop.
Part 3: Tactical complications.
The next stage of the game is full of mistakes. The position is complex and it takes long lines and analysis to figure out what is happening. Black managed to exchange a few pieces but the two passed pawns still remain for white. With the black rooks active it is hard to push them forward. In the next stage of the game both sides bring their kings into the game. Black has counterplay in view of the mass of central pawns that can start moving in some lines. Vachier-Lagrave missed an excellent opportunity at the 49th move where his f-pawn could have guaranteed a draw. Overall, the struggle is typically decided in this stage of the game where there are tons of resources for each side.
Part 4: R vs. 4P, win or draw?
As the smoke cleared out white got a rook for four pawns--one might say material equality but the four pawns include doubled f-pawns and the black king is behind them. Initially, I thought that Kc4 is a mistake and felt that Kd2 or Kd3 should be better: the king would be in front of the pawns. However, here we see the topic of cutting-off the king from the passed pawns and Rb6 achieves just that!
Overall, the endgame turned out to be exciting and both sides had chances to win at some point. The rook vs. four pawns was winning for white if he could find the right idea. The next week we will wrap-up the Initiative in Endgame series.
Great!! Thanks!
very good endgame techniques
Rb6! nice move, easy to understand.... thanks for the analysis, it made my day
dun give up!!!
interesting game,thanks.I believe these unbalanced material endings are made even harder when they arrive after intense struggles in middlegames.The player who can summon the strength to find and utilize every resource usually prevails.
Thanks for breaking it down so well!
I think when Black's bishop is trapped he should unlock it immediately with 37...g5. Idea is 38.fxg5 Ta6! If 38.b5 then gxf4 39. c7 fxe3 40.cxb8D+ Lxb8 with excellent endgame for Black to win.
I suppose these guys were in time pressure around the move 40!? What do you think Iryna?
P.S. This should be part 6
great stuff!!
thank you very much
At the R vs 4P I would surely bet at black (especially if the f pawns weren't doubled). I think that, at endgames, pawns almost double their value against other pieces. But, oh, draw is almost disappointing. Although, congratulations to both players, and special thanks to WIM energia for this, 5th part. 57... Kf6 might was better for black, but who knows.
Great stuff, thanks

With Cultural War Brewing in West Hollywood, Will Mayor John Duran Shake Up Status Quo?
Will John Duran, who was installed last night as the new mayor of West Hollywood, shake up the status quo with the help of recently elected City Councilman John D'Amico?
That's the big question in West Hollywood political circles these days -- in 2010 and early 2011, Duran clashed with longtime City Council members John Heilman and Abbe Land over the direction of the small, world famous city.
A kind of cultural war, as a result, has been brewing in West Hollywood for many months.
There are "two sets of values that are starting to rub up against one another," Duran said in a recent interview with the Los Angeles Independent, "and that's going to be our challenge in the upcoming years, is how we reconcile those two very distinct sets of values that I think are both progressive."

In March, Duran gained a strong political ally when newcomer John D'Amico was elected to the West Hollywood City Council. D'Amico was endorsed by Duran and ousted incumbent Lindsey Horvath, a key Heilman and Land ally.
In the past, D'Amico has charged that Heilman and Land have put into motion the "radical suburbanization" of West Hollywood, which includes approving inappropriate development projects and pushing family-friendly policies that trump the concerns and interests of the city's large gay population.
Duran, who will serve as mayor for one year, has also expressed deep misgivings about Heilman and Land's policies, saying there's a "cultural battle" for the city's "soul."
In remarks last night, Duran said, "I look forward to the new ideas of my colleague John D'Amico," and offered that "vigorous debates" about the future of West Hollywood "are healthy."
In a sign that some kind of change is coming to West Hollywood, D'Amico appointed longtime community activist Lauren Meister to the city's Planning Commission last night.
Meister, who twice ran for City Council and lost, has a reputation for being a vocal and tenacious city government watchdog. She's also been a frequent critic of Heilman and Land.
The "cultural battle," though, is not a fight between liberals and conservatives -- council members D'Amico, Duran, Heilman, Land and Jeff Prang all consider themselves to be progressive Democrats, and all of the male politicians are gay.
With Duran and D'Amico lined up on one side and Heilman and Land on the other, there's a behind-the-scenes struggle to capture the swing vote of Prang.
The divide gained national media attention after L.A. Weekly published the February cover story "Dethroning West Hollywood's Martinets."

The jeep they were in was driven by Williams and reportedly rolled, perhaps a few times. Graham was ejected from the vehicle and is hospitalized with a lacerated liver, collapsed lung and a bruised kidney. Graham, who was signed out of Australia, had a chest tube inserted to repair the lung injury.
Plumsky suffered cuts to his head and required staples to close one of the cuts. Williams suffered various cuts and bruises in the accident.
The three, along with Williams' girlfriend, were returning from a night out when the crash occured. Police have ruled out alcohol as a cause of the crash.
Graham, a second baseman and shortstop, hit .283 in the GCL last season with one homerun and 13 RBI. He also stole six bases. Plumsky and Williams are both outfielders. Plumsky hit .295 with six homeruns and 25 RBI for the GCL Phillies, while Williams hit .292 with no homeruns and one RBI in 12 games.

This page considers the loss of books through language
death, war, decomposition of works on acid paper and neglect.
It covers -
perspective is provided by discussion here
and here.
It is a commonplace that content on the web is ephemeral
and that despite the efforts of national/sectoral archives
many sites, documents (including major publications by
government agencies, businesses and NGOs), audio and video
recordings will disappear forever. Proponents of the net
as a 'universal library',
accessible by anyone at any time, have frequently underrated
challenges to the longterm survival of offline media and
ongoing access to that media. (Others, of course, have
recognised the seriousness of some challenges and responded
with plans for comprehensive migration of library collections
to the net through large-scale digitisation of university
libraries and through the development of international
OPACs underpinned by standard metadata.)
We can identify four broad challenges to printed text
and paper-based archives –
A perspective is provided by Vanishing Voices: The
Extinction of the World's Languages (Oxford: Oxford
Uni Press 2000) by Daniel Nettle & Suzanne Romaine,
Endangered Languages (Oxford: Berg 1991) edited
by Robert Robins & Eugenius Uhlenbeck and the broader
Empires of the Word: A Language History of the World
(London: HarperCollins 2005) by Nicholas Ostler.
Some cultures have gone forever. For others rescue efforts
are underway. One example is described in Aaron Lansky's
charming Outwitting History: How a Young Man Rescued
A Million Books and Saved a Vanishing Civilisation
(London: Souvenir Press 2005)
war and terror
In 1992 'ethnic cleansing' in Sarajevo was accompanied
by deliberate destruction of the National & University
Library of Bosnia and Herzegovina, with loss of over 1.5
million books and manuscripts. As noted elsewhere
in discussion of censorship, Pol Pot had earlier sought
to free Kampuchea from improper ideas and attitudes by
eliminating both Cambodia's libraries and librarians.
There has been surprisingly little written about biblioclasm
or libricide. Recent works include Rebecca Knuth's Libricide:
The Regime-Sponsored Destruction of Books and Libraries
in the Twentieth Century (New York: Praeger 2003),
The Holocaust & the Book: Destruction & Preservation
(Amherst: Uni of Massachusetts Press 2001) edited
by Jonathan Rose, Lost Libraries: The Destruction
of Ancient Book Collections since Antiquity (Basingstoke:
Palgrave-Macmillan 2004) edited by James Raven and Fernando
Baez' A Universal History of the Destruction of Books
(London: Atlas 2008).
The Holocaust & the Book is of particular
merit; it can be supplemented by studies such as Stanislao
Pugliese's 1999 Bloodless Torture: The Books of the
Roman Ghetto under the Nazi Occupation (PDF).
Initial Nazi immolation of 'entartete' print features
and in Guy Stern's Nazi Book Burning & the American
Response (Detroit: Wayne State University 1990).
We have not sighted
Attitudes towards biblioclasm are highlighted in Marc
Drogin's Biblioclasm: The Mythical Origins, Magic
Powers & Perishability of the written word (Savage:
Rowman & Littlefield 1989) and - perhaps more memorably
- in Elias Canetti's masterwork Auto-da-fe (London:
Cape 1972). A Splendor of Letters: The Permanence
of Books in an Impermanent World (New York: HarperCollins
2003) by Nicholas Basbanes and Library: An Unquiet
History (New York: Norton 2003) by Matthew Battles
consider the durability of individual works and collections.
Holbrook Jackson's quirky The Fear of Books (Bloomington:
Indiana Uni Press 2001), like his The Anatomy of Bibliomania
and and Charles Gillett's Burned books: neglected
chapters in British history and literature (New York:
Columbia Uni Press 1932), offers another view of western
Statistics are provided in UNESCO's Lost Memory -
Libraries and Archives Destroyed in the Twentieth Century
which notes the absence of attention to events such as
the 1988 fire that damaged or destroyed around 3.6 million
books in the Academy of Sciences Library in St Petersburg.
Much of the world's printed heritage - in particular minor
newspapers and journals - is under threat because of the
physical characteristics of the paper on which the print
resides, rather than than because of action by terrorists
and armies or contingencies such as flood and fire that
affect a particular repository.
In good conditions - for example low humidity and few
temperature fluctuations - paper produced prior to the
steam age will last indefinitely. Successful efforts to
increase supply and reduce costs saw replacement of rag
paper with paper made from wood pulp. That innovation
encourage mass literacy and the proliferation of content
that people in advanced economies take for granted. However,
the technology used for that paper production means that
much of the paper is self-destructing, taking with it
the books, newspapers, pamphlets and other content.
Institutions are therefore grappling with a range of responses,
from individual and mass deacidification to microfilming
and digital copying.
The main reason for the deterioration of much modern paper
is that it is acidic, a condition caused primarily by
use of alum-rosin compounds as sizing agents - ie to produce
a smooth white surface and by making fibre fiber surfaces
hydrophobic ensure that the paper does not act as blotting
paper - during the manufacturing process. The sizing interacts
with moisture and heat to produce sulphuric acid; that
acid destroys the paper, which in extreme examples turns
into flakes or even dust when disturbed (eg when a page
is turned, a book is taken from a shelve or file is handled).
Much paper that was intended for newsprint rather than
books is threatened by a different problem. It was derived
from cheap softwood, mechanically processed and roughly
bleached without an effort to produce a neutral pH. Over
time that paper becomes structurally weaker than that
used in many books. Natural chemicals within the former
'tree flakes' break down to form peroxides and acids that
cause disintegration of the paper and adverse reactions
with ink. Disintegration is accelerated by light, heat,
moisture and wide temperature fluctuations.
Deterioration of paper and of objects such as books can
more broadly be accelerated through rough handling (one
archivist quipped to us that dropping librarians, files
and books on the floor tends to cause damage), exposure
to atmospheric pollutants, contact with other entities
(rusting paperclips, corrosive adhesive tape, acetate
photographic and motion picture film) and inappropriate
bindings, animal pests and their droppings, and microorganisms
such as mould.

Dinh Q Lê: The Colony (2016)
- 3 September — 3 December 2016 *on now
By the middle of the 19th century the islands had become mountains of guano. A potent fertiliser, guano quickly became one of the world's most valuable natural resources. British merchants controlled its trade, using indentured Chinese labourers working under brutal conditions. War was triggered by Spanish, American and Peruvian forces scrambled for control of the islands and in 1856, the US Congress Guano Act enabled it to seize uninhabited islands around the world. The advent of chemical fertilisers saw the islands re-colonised by birds. Architectural traces of the conflicted past remain in ruins.
The islands have not been permanently inhabited for more than a century, but labourers return to harvest the guano by hand every few years. Accompanied by Daniel Kramer's elegiac soundtrack, Lê films from a boat approaching the islands, cameras on the ground and drones circling above to capture a bleak landscape haunted by its brutal past.
The Colony is part of The Artangel Collection, an initiative to bring outstanding film and video works, commissioned and produced by Artangel, to galleries and museums across the UK.

Max Scherzer held the Los Angeles Angels scoreless for three innings before giving up three runs in the fifth inning. The Tigers responded with three runs of their own the following inning and will take a 4-3 lead into the seventh inning Thursday night.
Back in the lineup after a three-game absence, Nick Castellanos hit a go-ahead two-run double in the sixth inning.
Angels starter Garrett Richards, who is 7-0 with a 1.25 ERA in his last nine starts, has allowed four runs on seven hits and two walks. He's struck out five.

Recently, we had several family members graduate from high school or college. While it may go without saying, I put it here for the record that we were proud of each and every one of them for their individual accomplishments. Given my passions are sewing and embroidery, I wanted to give them something that was both personal and unique, that they might enjoy and cherish over the years. Graduation Congratulations! is the project that came to me late one night as I was lying in the dark, waiting for my mind to finally quiet for the day. Isn't that when all the best ideas come bubbling to the surface?

Provincial Grand Charity Steward
Ken Davies, MBE, PProvSGW - Provincial Grand Charity Steward
It is an honour and a privilege to be appointed to the office of Provincial Grand Charity Steward in this Province of East Lancashire. Initiated into Freemasonry in 1977, I am a member of The Lodge of Harmony No.298 and Unity Chapter No.298, both of which meet at the Masonic Hall in Rochdale. My proud award of the MBE was granted in the Queen's 2010 New Years Honours, for Charitable Services.
I am very much intent on sharing ideas and suggestions relevant to all forms of charitable giving and fundraising, in addition to fully supporting the Province, the Districts and our own special Charity, the ELMC.
My personal fundraising background, together with the experience gained as a District Charity Steward, will I am sure be of great benefit in the new office.
Another of my personal objectives will be to encourage more of the Brethren to visit Hewlett Court, our Retirement Home near Bury, to witness the fine facilities and excellent care available to the residents. I also welcome future invites to Lodges / Chapter meetings and any planned Area / District meetings and Presentations in 2016 ( and onwards ! ).
My office as Provincial Grand Charity Steward is also to communicate most effectively with the Brethren and in this context I would therefore request that we all now consider individual membership of the ELMC.
Finally my personal thanks to the ' ELMC Team ', the valued District Charity Stewards and all the Brethren who have wished me well and already given me such a very warm welcome. Much appreciated.
The more you give, the more you get, the more you laugh, the less you fret,
WBro. Ken Davies MBE PProvSGW --- Provincial Grand Charity Steward. January 2016.

It's going to be a new look for the TwoTwo Motorsports team in 2014. That's the old sticker wrap that enveloped the transport rig. I'm pulling for Chad Reed in '14. Photo: Dave Osterman.
By John Basher

It's hard for me to begin writing something that I never imagined that I would have to write. A nightmare that has come true. Kurt Caselli has left this earth. At least I can take comfort in knowing that his spirit lives on in the those that he touched. I'm one such fortunate individual.
Although I don't remember the first time meeting Kurt, I can recall my initial impression of the SoCal desert rat. Mind you at that point Caselli was an established racer, successful in the WORCS series as well as the Hare & Hound championship. I didn't know much about off-road racing, but I had watched him tear around the local motocross tracks. He was legit on the bike, but not as impressive as away from the saddle.
By now you've seen, read or heard the public outcry from his adoring fans, loved ones and fellow riders. Kurt Caselli was an incredible human being. He was not self-absorbed in the least bit nor a sycophant. Those in his position would have been narcissistic, thirsting for power and attention. Not Kurt. He gave just as much of his time for an interview as he did after a grueling race in the empty pits with a young fan. Caselli was the definition of class.
I'll miss Kurt Caselli, but not because I'll never see him twist the throttle again. To me that didn't matter. What I'll miss are the happenstance meetings with him around the Palmdale area?we were neighbors?and talking about everything and nothing. Who do you know that could make you feel instantly comfortably, even if you hadn't seen them in months? That was Caselli.
I was fortunate enough to shoot photos and interview Kurt a number of times through the years. I always looked forward to our meetings, and I didn't worry about whether he would stand me up or not give his all. He was an all-in type of person. He didn't take any pity, and he expected none in return. That's what I admire most about him. Regardless of the stakes or, at times, the silliness of it all, he had a beaming smile and forged ahead with the task.
Need proof? Last year we did a KTM 125SX versus KTM 150SX shootout, and I wanted to get a photo of two riders railing a turn together for the cover. This was before we hired Daryl Ecklund on full-time for the assistant editor position at MXA. I called Daryl up and threw out the idea. He was all for it. I proceeded to ask who he thought the second rider should be. After all, hitting a corner with another rider close on one's heels takes the utmost trust. Without hesitation Ecklund said, "I know that Kurt has wanted to shoot photos with us. Maybe he could do it?" With Daryl and Kurt being best friends since around age five, I knew that they had spent a lot of time together and would go to the ends of the earth for one another. It was a brilliant idea to pair them up.
About a week later I met up with Kurt and Daryl at a secluded area outside of Palmdale in the middle of summer to get the shots. Kurt wore his team KTM Thor gear, along with Sidi boots (another sponsor) and a custom-painted MXA Bell helmet. I started the session by shooting Daryl and Kurt separately. The consummate competitors, Ecklund and Caselli took turns punishing the same turn in an effort to one-up the other. I can say with confidence that Daryl rarely gets out-ridden, but on that day Caselli had his number.
Once we got a few shots in the bank it was time to nail the cover photo. Kurt wisely chose the inside line, while Daryl's job was to power around the outside and let Kurt sneak up next to him. They started off like tween crushes holding hands for the first time?awkward and a bit funny. That's when I started hooting and hollering, directing them to get closer.
The next time around was magic. Both riders carried a lot of speed into the dust bowl and refused to shut off. It took trust, guts and a bit of stupidity to do that next to someone else at three feet away. Then it was two feet away. And then Kurt ran over Daryl's Fox boot as the two collided. It was skill that kept them from going down in a heap, and it was all we could do not to collapse from laughing. Even writing this now I'm busting up. Ecklund was yelling at Caselli for running over his foot and Kurt was giving it right back by blaming Daryl for turning in on him. If you look closely at the last shot in the sequence you can see Daryl smiling from under his helmet.
For their brave efforts Kurt and Daryl were featured on the cover of the November 2012 issue. And though I could go on and on about the day, that one specific moment really stands out. It will for the rest of my life. I witnessed two best friends enjoying what they loved to do, and they were together for it.
Daryl called me on Friday night after he found out that Kurt had passed away. It was one of the worst calls I ever received. I couldn't believe it. Kurt Caselli? That guy was like Superman. He triumphed over?well?everything. WORCS. Hare & Hound. Baja. Rally. He could do it all.
I'm sad that Caselli is gone. I'm also angry that people on internet message boards called MXA out for not posting news of Kurt's death. We didn't do that out of respect for his best friend, Daryl, who works at the magazine and was so close to Kurt that they were practically brothers. On Friday night the tragic news broke, along with misinformation. Caselli didn't suffer the wrath of some booby trap. I didn't want to leak out hearsay, because it does a disservice to the man that Kurt Caselli was. He died doing what he loved. We should all be so lucky.
The fact is that one of the more amazing human beings on this rock is no longer with us. We must pick up the broken pieces within ourselves and move forward. Eventually we will heal. The pain will subside. Yet no one who met Caselli will ever forget him. We should all aspire to be like Kurt. Ride in peace, my friend. #KC66
It will be tough to watch, but appreciate how nice Kurt was and remember his skills on a motorcycle.
Ryan was an awesome guy, and he did a great job for Cycra Racing. He will be missed. Rest In Peace, Ryan.

Austin Politelli has been everywhere, at least a little bit. Germany for Supercross? Check. Canada to race the Nationals? Check. 250 West Supercross. You know it. The SoCal kid has experienced a lot in his budding professional career, and he hopes to experience something completely new for the 2014 season?being on a team for the 250 West Supercross series. I sat down and spoke with Politelli minutes after he hopped off our project KTM 300SX two-stroke for a photo shoot.
MXA: This year has been very good for you. A lot of positives. You finished fourth at the San Diego 250 West Supercross, and then went up to Canada and won the 250 title. Following that up you were given a one-race deal at the Monster Cup on the factory KTM team. Not too shabby.
Austin: Yeah, there were some ups as well as downs. As far as Canada is concerned, this was my second time racing up north. I went in 2011 and had a lot of fun, so I decided to race the Canadian Nationals again. I rode for Leading Edge Kawasaki and ended up winning the championship. It was an awesome experience!
You started off the Canadian Nationals in dominating fashion.
I won the first six motos, but then I did really bad at Gopher Dunes. It was just one of those off days. After that I contracted strep throat, which wasn't fun at all, but I won more rounds after. At the last round I hurt my knee in practice and only raced the first moto, but I earned enough points to wrap up the title.
Last week Austin ripped around on our project KTM 300SX.
It sounds like you had to overcome numerous obstacles this summer. While talking to your dad on the phone he mentioned about how you put a hole in your leg. What was that all about?
At the first round in the second moto I came out of a corner and hit a square-edged bump. It kicked me sideways and I went off the track. I landed in a drainage ditch and my foot slipped off. My leg caught the footpeg between my knee brace and boot somehow. I cut my leg up really badly and had to get stitches. It was a freak accident.
What did you do between the Canadian Nationals?
I flew back home every week, because I wanted to do my training and riding in California. However, if I go back again next year I'll stay up in Canada. It gets tough with the flights, because some of the rounds are really far away from where I live. The traveling takes it out of me, so I'd like to stay in Canada.
At the moment you're open to a ride. What are you looking for?
I'd love to race West coast Supercross. I don't have anything right now, bike included. I've been keeping up on my training, and I'm happy to help you guys test bikes, because that's a lot of fun.
What if a deal doesn't come together? Will you race on your own dime?
If that's what it comes to. I've talked to Frenchie for the Canadian team, and maybe we can work something out. Otherwise I might do the German Supercross rounds in Munich and Dortmund. There are also some Arenacross races in Canada. We'll see what comes up.
You've won a lot of races and placed well in Supercross. Is it disheartening in the sense that you haven't been given solid footing on a team?
It is a little bit, but it shows me that I need to keep working hard to reach my goals. I was very fortunate to be given the one-race deal with the Red Bull KTM team for the Monster Cup, but things didn't work out. I put too much pressure on myself and was super nervous!
Do people have something against you?
I don't know if people think I'm a punk or what [laughter]. I stick to myself and do my training. Maybe that comes off wrong, but I'm a really nice guy. It sure would be nice to get an opportunity for Supercross. I feel like I've proven myself a little bit. There weren't any privateers ahead of me at most rounds and I also beat some factory guys. I don't want to come off cocky, but I'd hope that I've proven myself enough to get a chance.
Austin at the Monster Cup aboard a Red Bull KTM 350SXF. Nerves got the best of him and he didn't qualify for the mains.
How did the Red Bull KTM ride come about?
I was at a round in Canada and my dad texted me saying that I needed to call Roger DeCoster. I was like, Whoa! So I did, and he wanted to work something out. I did a test with the KTM team. I was nervous, because before that I was on vacation in Washington for two weeks and had to jump right into Supercross. I guess KTM liked me, so we had a meeting and agreed to race Monster Cup.
How much time did you have on the KTM 350SXF before racing the Monster Cup?
I had about a month of time on the bike, which was very good. I only wish that things would have gone better at the race. Like I said, I was really nervous, and I'm thankful to Roger DeCoster and the Red Bull KTM team for giving me the opportunity.
Well I hope your phone rings and you get something lined up for the 250 West this upcoming season.
Thanks, John. I appreciate it.

Facing the challenges of Baja stresses the physical and emotional limits that the human body can endure unlike most other motorsport competitions today. In fact, referring to the Baja 1000 with the simplistic term of a competition doesn't even scratch the surface of what the event is, what it means to those who have endured it's rigors and what it demands of those hoping to pass its tests. It's an adventure unlike any other that few people in this world will ever be able to grasp and it leaves a deep, lasting impact on those who have been through it forming bonds between participants that will last a lifetime.
To be honest, I'm finding it difficult to do the mystique and grandeur of the Baja 1000 justice in simple words. It's a race in which the awe and beauty of the event can only be matched by the potential for tragedy and hardship. But that's what the men and women who chose to face the trials are looking for: a challenge and adventure that will truly test them and give them a sense for their own limitations and what it feels like to push beyond them. It gives a sense of having lived life to it's absolute fullest.
In these most heavy-hearted times, I'm also finding it tough to write about my own race; a simple competition seems like a trivial child's game compared to the life-changing event that took place, but for those who want to feel closer to the race, or wish to have more of an understanding, I'll give a bit of a recap?
Throughout all of my pre-running I was feeling uncharacteristically carefree about the entire event, I was really enjoying putting in a ton of miles practicing and wasn't feeling any genuine nerves or pressure. It may sound odd to consider these feelings uncharacteristic, but in such a big event, with so many unknown possibilities and dangers laying concealed in the Baja desert, and the knowledge that so many talented riders were competing, which would demand a fast pace flirting with the edge of control and safety, the Baja 1000 usually hangs an opaque cloud of doubt and uncertainty, even if only a small one, somewhere deep inside the mind. It truly was a novelty to feel so positive and worry free before the race.
On race day my teammates David Pearson and Ricky Brabec would split up the first three hundred eighty-five miles, through the darkness, to El Crucero where I was scheduled to ride one hundred forty miles before handing the bike to Taylor Robert, then remounting and splitting up the final two hundred miles with Ricky. I knew the nighttime start would offer a different dynamic to the race, so it was great to hear that most people made it through the evening without incident. In terms of the race for the lead, we heard radio reports that the first three bikes were coming to El Crucero within minutes which was exactly what I had hoped for: a smooth evening run, keeping close and in the hunt, allowing for the race to be settled in the day.
The 1x Honda was the first bike through, followed a few minutes later by the 2x KTM. I watched both of them go by with a feeling of confidence; I knew the following section well, really enjoyed it and felt I had the potential to make up time on the leaders, all I needed was the bike. Unfortunately the clock kept ticking with no sign or sound of our bike. Minute after minute passed and some slight anxiety began to creep in. What happened? Was it a problem with the bike, or did something happen to David? It was utter agony as time relentlessly kept ticking on.
Finally after nearly forty minutes David came speeding into sight. We would later learn that a slight miscalculation of distance between pits left David's tank empty just over a mile from the next gas stop. He said he pushed it for a while, which would have been a difficult task in the sandy conditions, before someone in a car was able to siphon gas out of their own tank to fill a little bit of Dave's and get him going. I can't imagine how frustrating that must have been for David, after he and Ricky had put in such a great ride and so many hours on the bike, only to run out of gas within a couple miles of getting off the bike.
This is where I feel I made my first mistake of the entire two weeks I'd been down there; leading up to the race, including during the morning of the race itself, I had told myself I was going to build into the pace of the race a little. I was going to have plenty of miles on the bike and I wasn't going to win the race in the first few so I wanted to build into the event and get a feel for the flow of the bike and the course on race day. Unfortunately with the time that we'd lost, and the time I'd spent waiting and growing more frustrated, I began to let my emotions get the best of me. As I mounted the bike I wasted no time in pushing to the limits of what we consider a "safe" race speed in Baja.
Emotions aside, I felt fantastic on the bike. I was riding the course just how I had imagined, straightening out the two-track road where I could, sweeping the corners wide where it was required and looking far down the course in an effort to feel more in control. I honestly felt like I was flying.
And that's when absolute disaster struck. About ten miles into my section I was cresting a fourth-gear rise and I hit something embedded in the ground real, REAL hard. It was either a hidden rock or a stump, but the impact was enough to break the rear hub and send me off course down the left side of the track in an uncontrolled swap. I was speeding through a mine field of rocks, bushes and small trees and when I hit a thicket of three stout bushes, I got positively ejected off of the bike and went flying through the air. I bounced off the earth a couple times and finally came to a stop in a field of small rocks where I struggled to get my breath. After a couple minutes of fuzziness the reality of what had just happened was beginning to sink in, and I was also coming to the conclusion that my Baja 1000 had just ended as I couldn't lift my right arm more than a few inches into the air and my left ankle felt like it was quickly approaching the size of a large grapefruit. Luckily by this time the helicopter had landed and our medic began tending to me.
Steve Hengeveld, who was our banded back up rider in the helicopter and still recovering from an ankle injury of his own, realized that he was going to have to ride the rest of my section to keep us in the race and he began to suit up in his gear and get ready to go. Steve was definitely my hero for riding that bike over 100 miles, through the nasty silt of the "fish camp" loop, after I absolutely mangled it ruining the sub-frame, the pipe, the rear hub, the rear brake system and twisting up the front end real nice.
After a major pit to repair of the damage I managed to inflict upon the bike, David was forced to remount our steed and finish my sections for me since I was unable to continue. I owe a huge debt and thanks to my team, Monster Energy, THR Motorsports, Precision Concepts Kawasaki, and especially our mechanics in the pits, along with all of my teammates for working incredibly hard to fix the bike and keep us going in the race after my mistake. It's amazing to think that we still managed a good finish with all that happened.
Of course, in light of the absolute tragedy that occurred later that afternoon, our finishing position seems rather trivial. It wasn't until the early evening that we started hearing rumors about Kurt Caselli, and like most people, we didn't want to believe the reports or even give them the time of day; it simply wasn't possible. I honestly still don't know how to feel about everything, it's like a bad dream that I keep wishing to wake from but it keeps sucking me deeper down into it, proving more real. There are undoubtedly many people who knew Kurt better than I did and as much as it hurts me that he's gone, I can't imagine what those who were closer to him are going through right now.
It goes without saying that Kurt was an incredibly talented off-road racer, one of the best, but he was also an amazing human being who loved his friends and family, who had a smile that was infectious and who was the type of person that parents would encourage their kids to look up to and admire. The loss of Kurt has left so many, including myself, searching for answers and closure, closure that often times Baja unfortunately doesn't offer. For me, a little comfort comes from knowing that Kurt lived his life on his terms, doing what he loved to do, which is more than most people can say. Kurt touched so many lives in our racing community, one of the tightest and closest communities I know of, and he will be truly missed by anyone who was lucky enough to meet him. Godspeed Kurt, I look forward to seeing you again when we learn what this life is really all about.

Now we offer those same great offsets with a new rubber-mounted top clamp that helps dampen vibration and reduce hand fatigue. The addition of the cone pockets makes the upper clamp more rigid which further improves steering response. These Clamps are available for 2013 & 14 models (2012 Dungey Edition) and come with the Polyurethane Cones. The One-Piece Bar Mount is sold separately (KX-BBM00-CA) and required for Motocross applications.
