I have "See a NASCAR race" way up at the top of my bucket list. We just took a tour of the Dover International Speedway, affectionately referred to as the Monster Mile. The tour took us through all the VIP spots in this 500 million dollar venue. The winners podium, the garage, pit row, and even the press facility. Pretty cool right? Tough to make any cooler right? How about doing the the whole thing on a segway from Segzone?! Annnnnd wrapping up the tour with a full lap on the track at top segway speed...12.5mph! Not quite the 180mph that the stock cars are doing we had a tough time matching their pace of three laps a minute. It was so awesome!

TIP: If going to the races tickles your fancy head over to the track for their upcoming Fall Triple Header Weekend September 29th- October 2.

Cruise through some of Delaware's most scenic areas and support five local organizations at 25th annual Amish Country Bike Tour this September 10th in Dover, Delaware. Early bird registration is over, but you can still ride with the nearly 1400 cyclists.

And its ok if you're just in it for the pie, its amazing!

TIPS: If you're bike needs a tune up, keep eyes peeled for Dave's Road Bikes, Inc. who will serve as the rolling bike shop the day of the event.

Stop by Byler's for a fresh baked pie (hm hm...apple crumb) of your own or at Fifer Orchards to some delicious fresh produce or a romp through the corn maze!

Kiteboarding is a relatively new sport. It's roots touch on surfing, windsurfing and wakeboarding but there's one major addition. A huge kite! Kiteboarding is catching on here in delmarva in a big way and East Of Maui Surf Shop in Dewey Beach is leading the charge. They are the only shop in area to stock a full range of the equipment and offer private lessons at all levels. The wind season is about to kick in again so give them a shout and get in the game!

TIP: I highly recommend Jaime, he's very friendly and knowledgable!

Welcome to the 38th annual White Marlin Open, the largest bill fish tournament held each year right here in Ocean City, Maryland, the white marlin capital of the world. This is a very serious competition... Forget the fishing derby you won as a kid with an earthworm. These guys are using the fish you caught as bait. Admittedly I kind of wondered what all the hype was about.

Welllll when the first boat pulled into the weigh station yesterday, the "Playmate" from right out of the tournaments hometown, they unloaded a 45-pound tuna. I was duly impressed, but my curiosity was piqued when the fish was disqualified for coming in 5-pounds under the minimum for the entire competition. Slowly I started to get the idea. This fish was kiddie sized.

One of the crew members on the boat said, "This is the baby brother of the other tuna we have on deck." The crowds anticipation came alive as the officials set to work offloading what we were about to find out was a 241-pound behemoth! Just take a moment to consider just how big that is. That fish outweighs me. And tuna is one of the smaller fish that they're actually going for. The record for the competition was a 15 foot blue marlin that weighed in at 1,062-pounds. That's 5 of me!

The angler, Dale Christensen fought that fish for close to an hour armed with a fishing rod and a hook to get it into the boat. Unbelievable! And I wasn't the only one who thought so as the crowd became jubilant. So do yourself a favor. The competition runs through Friday, August 12th. Go down to 14th street in Ocean City on the bay side between 5 & 7 p.m. and see what they caught that day and join the crowd in cheering these guys on. 'Cause you need to see a fish that weighs more than you do too.

Ocean City was packed with action and action-loving folks this weekend as DEW Tour made its first round of this year's competition sequence. After several hours of rain delays, we finally made it into the media pit for the vert skate finals where one of Maryland's own, Bucky Lasek, took the cake. Olympic gold medalist, Shaun White and Mitchie Brusco, also known as "Little Tricky."
