Back to back Tuesdays.

The band got partially back together a few weeks ago and let me tell you something. It was cold and wet. And not the good kind like an Icy Coke on a hot southern day. Nope! I'd say it was a bit more like this.

Additionally, the man in that foto is none other than our own little sister, Mr. Blister. As it turns out, its pretty easy to find a photo of this kid. Also, as it turns out, when it rains out, and it gets way dark, and his glasses get all full of sweat and water, riding bikes with him is like riding Old Mine Trail while spotting Bobby.

Anyway, back to the that tuesday ride. Like I said it was feeling like the good old days, way back 6 months ago. Some of the jokers that showed up were,
Weak Sauce...and potentially only getting weaker, we'll have to see next tuesday.

Shookie, getting back on track for some Downieville XC race.

And Frosty "where'z a brotha been" Freeze.

Oddly the ride started DT MV, slightly off the mark as you can see.

That'd be 6:15 heading straight for 6:30 if you can't see the town clock.

In Brief, the whole ride went down like this:

it started ugly


then it got Rad


Then Blister decided to shred the his blue steed.



Then it got dark



Then it got dark, real dark, and real rainy

This was the best I could do video wise, but good thing Bliss had the blinker.


Anyway that was epic ride number one so far. At least in the messy, cold, wet, late, not enough gear, can't really see kind of way. The following tuesday is coming up, though much simpler story.

Boggs turns the cogs

Hey all

Back from a hiatus. Amongst other things, I moved from here:


To Here:

Sebi is bummed about the yard, but I think this weekend made up for it. Boggs is great place to ride and take the dog. Its a State Demonstration Forest, whatever that means. All I know is that it has sick singletrack, you can burn wood (however you want to take that), dogs can hang and be off leash, and there is tons of camping.
Here is a look at the course:

And a look a look at yours truthfully coming in from a hott lap.

Giving credit where credit is due, these photos came from:
Ted
and one of the girls in our group, but I have forgotten her flickr name. So she'll just have to hunt me down for the no credit
Anyway, the race when down without a hitch and Davin and I crushed 10 laps a bit over 8 hours. We were bested by a mere 9 other teams, one of which had the exact same time as us. Shenanigans for sure! we obviously rousted those guys by at least one second.

The next event coming up is Shasta Lumerian If you don't know it, get on it, cause it is ripper, and also painful, and also fun. Grassroots epic for sure. Though in past years a slew of Pro folks have turned up post Sea Utter to take the top spots. They haven't spoiled the party yet though.
