the day after


i hammered out the goulds jem virgin loop today with about 15 other pals who think bikes are cool. it wasnt the typical ride, it kind of went like this.

the group slowly trickled out of the lot in packs of 2 or 3. not everyone wanted to hammer or ride in a big pack as the ability levels were widely varied. so i dont really want to wait around all day anyway. so i left last like 15 mins behind everyone. took off with cody and shannon for awhile they stopped and i just kept going like lionel richey. all night long.
too bad the green lantern was baby sitting slowran. he missed out.
i ripped that loop in 1hr 50. they should do a race out there it would the best single loop race i ever did. its perfect.

i got to the jem switchback and caught chan, tw, joss, kathy , chris. the best part was the timing of this. we all got to the switch back at the same time. these pansies were walking down it. chan and tw. big sissy, then kathy rips down it with no problem. making them feel like beginners.
yaaa
then we let it rip through the next 5 miles of dh and hauling ass through the desert. im tired my legs hurt and i beat myself up pretty good over 3 days so im cashed and ready to nap.



i got this pic from kday yesterday, handing out 40's in the feed zone. i left that one for bz. too bad he wasnt here to grab it.

bz the lush.
heres blaney and kday doing spectator duty. but really should be lining up with us.


bryson tried to drop the hammer but i think it fell out of his pocket.

lap 4 getting ready to drop the bomb. thats why he calls me the rattle snake, when i sense trouble, i strike.

who says you cant ride a lefty no handed.
skills, baby,

skills.

Yea! My body has been clean for 2 months, ready to throw a carbon giant into the molton furnace of scalpels. Skied 4 hours at dv and then went for 2.5 on the mtb on the road. Way to blitz j/v.r. today.
