Sarah Whitmore does a back flip into a foam pit!

Photo from Racer X
Sarah in air, Jessica Foster taking picture.
From Racer X online: "Sarah Whitmore Before we get into the racing stuff, Sarah Whitmore must have made some kind of history yesterday when she backflipped a 110 into Travis Pastrana’s foam pit. DC Shoes’ Ken Block and Blair Marlin were there to check on their newest rider, Travis, and like everyone who visits Annapolis, Maryland, they ended up doing some flipping of their own!

“Sarah Whitmore! She killed it — first girl to flip a dirt bike into a foam pit!” wrote Mr. Block in his e-mail before he headed for Steel City himself. “Damn, we had a lot of fun today. Travis’ place is amazing.”

Pro National Numbers:

The spirit of Moto Mutt:" Has it been a half a year since Mx-Mom has updated her site?!" "Yikes, that is a long time."

Cross-Up Cat: "Yeah, the family took a season off to remodel their house and restructure their business." "Looks like Mx-MoM is going to be running the Northern Michigan business during the winters while Incredibill runs their Marco Island business." "What a bum!" "She was able to vacation in Florida over Christmas and again end of February and beginning of March and she stopped off in North Carolina and rode the "Tail of the Dragon on Incredibill's 1972 Honda 750!" "She had a blast."

Moto Mutt: "Well, Incredibill is just trying to get a nice winter/summer business thing going on, so after Cassie graduates they will be able to work in the warmer climate in the winters and then come to the great white north in the spring, summer and fall!" "Pretty sweet."

Cross-Up Cat: "Well, I still say "what a bum!" "I would have had a hissy fit!"

Moto Mutt: "Yeah, well any excuse to hiss at something, you flea bag."

Cross-Up Cat: "Why I outa...."

Moto Mutt interupts: "...go climb a tree!" "So how is everyone doing this race season?" "It has been a long and snowy winter in Northern Michigan and a very cold spring so far." "Mx-MoM is hoping to throw a leg over her Suzuki DR 650 soon." "She is not sure if she will be racing this season, due to her bike not running right." "Cassandra is outgrowing her cr 85 and has her sites on a Suzuki RMZ 250." "She is as tall as her Mom now, which isn't saying much!"

Cross-Up Cat: "Yeah, well you should talk, you short-legged brainless wonder." "So, let's get on with other news...hey...did you hear that Sarah Whitmore is riding KTM now?"

Moto Mutt: "Yeah and she is racing hare scrambles and loving it." "She still plans on racing the 2009 AMA Women's Pro Series." "She is feeling really good after a bout with a virus last year." "Right now, she is in California with her brother Ben who is learning how to cage fight!" "That is pretty cool."

Cross-Up Cat: "Cage fight?!" "That's what you should do, Moto Mutt!" "I'd like to see you in a cage! LOL!"

Moto Mutt: "Yeah, well they should lock you up in a padded cell, barf breath." "Geesh can we stay on the subject for a change?" "Now, I forgot what I was talking about." "Hmmm....oh well I guess we should jabber a bit about the supercross series that is winding down." "There is a 5 point difference between Chad Reed and James Stewart." "I am glad to see it that close." "Chad Reed really came back strong and is in the lead now." "Andrew Short who has always been one of my favorites is in a solid 3rd place." "It should be another exciting race this weekend." "I really like watching the outdoor motocross though." "Red Bud is an awesome track and I hope we can go down this year to watch."

Cross-Up Cat: "Well, I think we should get to bed, it is very late and I didn't get my cat nap in today."

Moto Mutt: "Such a whiner!" "Well I will get back with y'all after the races on Saturday night." "Enjoy every minute of your life, and pray for those who can't."

Sponsorship Advice:

I will be updating and revising this as more information is available.

Where do you look for a sponsorship?
First of all there are already great tools out there:
http://www.sponsorhouse.com $0 for entry level, $59.95 basic and $119.95 for premium to post your resume.

http://www.mxsponsor.com
How MXSponsor.com Works:
www.MXSponsor.com works for all racers of all age levels that are looking to get sponsored. Forget paying up-front fees to submit a resume. Riders build their online profile, upload action photos, race results and write a cover letter and then submit to as many companies as they wish all for free. Riders then receive responses, deals, and offers, and can choose to pay a one time $50 for the year to sign unlimited contracts with no obligation. MXSponsor.com is the free choice for riders to see if they got what it takes.
MXSponsor.com's platform is free to companies looking to process resumes online or to find thousands of new potential riders. MXSponsor.com works for any company of any size and accounts can be setup within one business day. No fees, no contracts, no drama.

You post your resume on the site and they hook you up with sponsors.

Go to http://www.mxgirls.com for sponsorship information and tips. Michelle creater of mxgirls.com has great advice on how to get sponsors. Some of the current sponsors, (2006-2007), she has mentioned on her site are listed below

Go to local races to get local sponsors and big races to get major sponsors.

Always send your results with your sponsors to the local newspapers. Sponsors are looking for exposure for their name.

Do some research on the internet looking for the companies you would like to sponsor you. Let's say you need a new pipe…there is FMF, Pro Circuit.
Or you need your suspension set up: Renegade Suspension…New tires: Michelin…you get the picture.
Some companies want you to send your information right from their website, others want you to send them in by mail. Some have a deadline…it is usually December before the season starts.
After they receive your sponsorship request, they will either send you a contract stating what they expect of you or a letter saying they cannot sponsor you and the reason.
Read the contract carefully. You will be expected to follow through with it and not violate the terms. Once you sign and return the contract, congratulations you are now a sponsored rider! If you get a letter of rejection, that's o.k. try again next year.

Sponsors usually give you a full ride or a discount on parts, gear, motorcycles or whatever.

Don't forget to look beyond the motocross industry for sponsors…hey why not your local gas station, your beautician, and let's not forget your chiropractor?!!!

I would also check local organizations like the Professional Business Women's Association in your area. They are always looking for ways to help promote women in business and if your racing for a career, you are in business…right?
You can reciprocate these local organizations by giving a presentation at their group meetings giving them something to add spice to their meetings and giving you more exposure.

Below is some condensed information on sponsors from Mx-girls.com Bluestarmx.com, racerx.com, transworldmx.com. Be sure to check out Michelle's site for current information on sponosors

Ecerpt from last article:
Sponsorships

Cross-Up Cat continues: "Mx-Mom has had a couple of emails asking how to get sponsors, she wants to take over the pulpit to answer some of these questions, so that means...

Moto Mutt interupts: "You want me to...

Cross-Up Cat interupts again: "Shut your furry, flappin' mouth!"

Moto Mutt blurts: "Hey, you said you were going to change you lyin' sack of liverwurst leftovers!"

Cross-Up Cat says increduosly: "Hey, don't you have to follow the rules too?"

Grandma Cozi: "Your absolutely right, Cross-Up!" "However I think you two enjoy teasing each other entirely too much to ever give up that part of your relationship." "Teasing is o.k. if it is done in love, understood by each other and not in contempt." "Families tend to draw closer together when they can tease each other occasionally about something that they shared together." "Christians are supposed to do what is right, but are still allowed to have a sense of humor." "Why I think God had a wonderful sense of humor when he created dogs, don't you think?"

Moto Mutt says trying to sound offended: "Hey, I resemble the remark!" "I mean I resent that remark!"

Grandma Cozi smiles knowlingly with a twinkle in her eye: "That is exactly the kind of teasing I am talking about." "I got a rise out of you, but you could see that I said it with a wink of my eye and a tone in my voice, so you knew I was teasing and didn't mean any harm."

Cross-Up Cat laughs heartily: "Ohhh, I get it!"

Grandma Cozi continues more solemly: "There is a big problem with comunication these days." "Since we do so much of it by emails and through chat rooms it is really easy to type something and have it taken the wrong way by the reader." "The use of smiley faces and other icons help to put across our feelings as people can't see your facial expressions, see your body language or hear the tone of your voice." "It is important to read what you write a couple of times to make sure that it comes across how you are feeling." "Take the time to read it outloud to yourself first." "Sometimes it will sound completely different than what you mean." "There has been a lot of talk about cyber bullying on TV lately and we even had a note sent home from school about it from the principal to contact them if this happens." "Chat rooms and places that let you post pictures on line have provided a forum for people to bully other people in the privacy of their own homes, yet share it publicly to a wide range of people on the world wide web." "This has lead to a few teenage suicides." "There is no escape even in the safe harbor of our own homes." "Mx-Mom has seen this personally in her own home and this is what happens: the victim comes home from school or work, decides to get on the chatline to converse with a few friends, someone decides to pick on this particular person for whatever reason that sets them off, replies are shot back and forth...they don't have to worry about their physical well being as they are online, nor are they able to see the hurt expression or possible tears streaming down their victim's faces, a coward's way of bullying." "So, the victim blocks them." "It would be nice if that was that, but it is not." "The bully then posts in place of the name something mean about the person for all of the friends to see and the victim is humiliated." "Some cyber bullies even go to the extreme of posting humiliating pictures on personal websites and then posting the link for all to see." "You can imagine how the victim is feeling." "They don't want to go to school or work or even step outside the now unsafe harbor of their own home." "Friends turn away from them out of fear that they too will become this cyber bullies unwilling victim and the person is further alienated." "Mx-Mom has also seen extremely bad language used on the internet, with young people showing no repect for their elders." "Parents really need to monitor computer usage and also talk to their children about cyber bullies and proper computer etiquette." "Don't be afraid to ask if your children are aware of this tactic being used or if they have seen it being used." "This will empower them as they will then be aware of what is happening if it is going on and know that it is o.k. to report it to you or school authorities." "Thank God school authorities are now aware of these tactics and are putting a stop to it by blocking certain sites to be used by students to post cyber bullying." "Computers are a wonderful thing if used wisely, and does not consume your time." "So kids, get off your computer and go RIDE!"

Mx-Mom says...ahem: "Thanks Grandma Cozi for the relavant information about cyber bullying." "May I take the floor for some information about sponsorship for up and coming racers?"

Grandma Cozi: "Oh, sorry I forgot and took over the webpage for a moment, I get so fired up when it comes to this stuff I see from heaven and I just have to share it."

Mx-Mom says matter of factly: "Of course it is extremely important to be aware of the things that are happening in our society and to protect our kids." "Now let us help the young riders who would like to have help with their racing endevours."

"Sponsorship, easily said, not so easily obtained." The first thing you should think about is "why would anyone want to sponsor me?" "As President Kennedy once said, "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country"; a sponsor says, "Ask not what I will give you, but what you will do for my company." "Get my drift?" "You need to think if you are really ready to make a commitment to the people you are going to ask to sponsor you." "A commitment being, how many races are you going to go to, what are your goals, how are you going to obtain them." "How are you going to represent the companies who are sponsoring you?" "What happens if you are unable to make these commitments?" "Are the funds in place to realistically obtain these race goals?" "You also need to think about what level and what location you are going to race at.." "Are you racing locally, in a district, nationally, internationally?" "That will effect who you are going to ask to be your sponsor." "For instance a local dealer may or may not want to sponsor you if you are going out of the area, or state, or nation." "They usually want their products to be seen locally, so they can sell more of them and get local advertising in the newspapers by reporting your race successes."

"So, now that you decided which races you are going to hit, what your goals are and where your possible sponsors will be located at, it is time to get the basics down on paper."

"Numero Uno RESUME."
Ok, here is a suggested list of what should be on your resume: ( I am removing the quotes to make it easier to read."

1.Your name

2.Your sport and whether you are an Amateur or pro and in it. ie: Pro Motocross Racer, Amateur competitor in
Supercross and Arenacross events.

3..Your web page URL if you have one

4.Contact information

5.What you ride

6.Your number

7, 8, 9 Your height, weight and age

10.Your mechanic if you have one

11.Favorite places to ride

12.Current sponsors

13.CAREER OBJECTIVES you objectives and goals for the year.

14. CAREER HIGHLIGTS starting with the most current. List the most important, not too many individual races, unless you don't have any championships or major events that you have competed in yet.

15.Awards you have recieved, for example in 1997 I received Rider of the Year, so I listed that. I also listed that I was a black belt in Tae Kwon do to show that I have the commitment to finish what I start. These could include awards you have received outside of your sport to show that you are a good citizen, etc.

16.Publicity you have received such as newpaper articles or magazines you have been in.

17.Short biography

18.Pictures: I like to include a couple of pictures such as one head shot and then one riding.

19. Last, but not least a COVER LETTER should be in addition to the resume briefly stating your request for sponsorship, why they should sponsor you and if what they would sponsor you with if it is not obvious what you would like them to help you with. For example your local gas station might sponsor you with gas for your rig. Don't forget to begin and end the letter with a thank you for reading the resume. The cover letter should have a date be in business form with your name and address on the top, the sponsors name and address and an re: (regarding sponsorship request.)

"You can take a look at Sarah's webpage to get an idea of what to include in a resume. Although, in a webpage you can include lots of extra stuff and it can be an extension of your personality, but a resume should be easy to read and to the point."

Next issue: Where do you look for sponsorship? Not on a gazelle!


Cassie Price doing a Pastrana like backflip move on the gazelle!

Always good advice:

Safety advice:

"So, I hope you all went out and bought your neck braces, chest protectors, mouth guards, goggles, knee pads, gloves and appoved racing helmet and riding boots for the upcoming race season."Recommended gear:

"A well fitting D.O.T. approved helmet-it should be snug and not move around when you shake your head back and forth."
"A chest protector, that also hugs your body, though not too tight as to cut off circulation."
"Boots and knee pads...I love the Alpinestars tech 8 with the ankle booties...I hear the tech 10's are awesome, but I will have to wait another year for those."
"Gloves, long sleeve jersey and moto pants too." "Motocross pants have extra padding and protection in the hip, thigh and knee area."
"Goggles protect the eyes from roost and dirt."
"Mouth guard is recommended by most dentists and will protect your teeth from a bang to the head or keep your teeth from clanking together if you case a jump."
"Most importantly use your head at all times." "Remember you can't take trophies to heaven!"

"Keep supporting the women and girls in the motorsports by either contributing, sponsoring or buying the products that support women. There are lots of great gear available for women now...MSR, Fox, Thor, Answer all have motocross gear designed for women." "The 2005 racing license are due now, so don't forget to apply at http://www.womensmotocrossassociation.com

Be sure to check out the great goggles and sunglasses at: Designed for a woman, by a woman.
http://www.zealoptics.com."

and don't forget mx-girls clothing lines at the following women owned businesses:
http://www.mxgirl.com,
http://www.sickracing.com
http://www.girlyzclothing.com

Miki Keller of the WMA said that the best way we can help the girls is to apply for a membership in the WMA, so they can see the numbers." "I signed up and received a tshirt and some cool stickers along with my membership card with my number on it." "I may not get a chance to use it this year, but at least I put my money where my mouth is and got a membership." "I am encouraging the girls who race to sign up no matter if they are racing or not." "I have put my WMA sticker right on my front number plate and people have been asking about it, which gives me a chance to promote the Women's Motocross Association who supports us, in one way or another." "Some day, I hope that my youngest daughter will be able to race pro and that she will have the chance to race during a pro national and get some of the big bucks like the guys do." "It is people like you, who read this column that will make this possible."

Please be sure to check out the website of the WMA:www.womensmotocrossassociation
.com. "

"Continue to write letters to the National tracks to let know how much we love to see the women compete at the National events and that we appreciate them supporting the women."

"And be sure to talk to all the girls at the races you are at." "Be friendly and helpful even though you may be competing against each other." "Here in Northern Michigan, we girls look out for one another." "Competing is fun and we can encourage one another." "Good sportmanship is the key to getting good press coverage and help for women in sports."

"If you would like to support Sarah in her sport, think about purchasing a t-shirt or mug in the cafe press shop. http://www.cafepress.com/mxmom."
