Smage Farm Trials

Once the last show dropped at Road America, Pat and Papa headed back to the farm to finish set-up on sundays AMA District 16 Trials event.  Phil and Rex decided to stay the night at RA to take in some of the songs from “Oil Can Larry” and check out the EFC ultimate fighting.  The band cranked out some great covers and the fighters threw out some close fighting.

Just after the sun peered into Wilburs windows, it was back on the road for home.  They arrived just in time for the event.  Being their home turf, both Pat and Phil decided it would be best for them to ride exhibition and leave the battles to the other riders.  In the Champ class it was a battle between Pauly “Philby” Philbrick, from “Philbricks Pharmhouse Phrenzy” fame, and Papa Smage.   Papa getting the nod at the end of the day was not the biggest surprise to Pauly; “He’s the teacher, duuuude, its tough to beat the guy that taught you what trials was all about, ”  he remarked.   Pappa was not the only 551 Films ripper who scored a win, however.  “OSC” himself, Uncle Circe, took top honors in the highly competitive intermediate class.  After the final scores were tallied and the pitbikes, trials bikes, and moto bikes were put to rest it was goooone fishing for 551 Films.
