its raining so im goin to fruita

yesterday i was on fire, it was warm and nice out so got the road bike and ripped in traffic for 2.5 hrs. my favorite roads are state street, 3300 south and 7th east. rush hour is the best time of day to rally with the autos.

today its warm but wet, so that sucks. if anyone wants to meet us in fruita email me.

this guy is drivin, im just along for the ride. yaaa drunk ass.













we are going to be ripping up the trails for 3 days.






i will be dropping in the dh more frequently. i have to scare myself every few days to remember what its like going fast like the tomes and steve peat.
racing dh is obviously not the same as a xc dh. dh is power/skill/sprinting while fresh for 4 mins.
xc dh is trying to do that all blown and bonking after 1.5 or 2 hrs at 190hr. a different breed of dh, only for the most wacked bike riders.
check yourself.





i saw jeff bates yesterday, he had melanoma skin cancer cut off his head/neck and lymphnodes removed from his neck. skin graphs off his quad. major surgery. it looked major, and makes you think youre not invinceable.
cancer is cancer what ever name they call it.

good luck to the bates family, he will be back on the 1 speed before summer.

my soapbox:

i got this link from the wolf
i never use sunscreen, its poison, i have never had alcohol or drugs, im not mormon, not really religious. im just hard core straight edge gangsta.

im not talking bout jeff here, but i do agree and have many opinions on how cancer invades the body and how it is eliminated.
i could go on for awhile here so i will keep it short.

sunscreen causes cancer, acid in the body causes it, you get acid from bad diet etc. not hard to figure out. once the acid/alkaline is balanced in the body cancers and diseases go away. you dont need hospitals and drugs to fix this. you can do it on your own from stuff at wild oats.

Most chemical sunscreens contain from 2 to 5% of benzophenone or its derivatives (oxybenzone, benzophenone-3) as their active ingredient. Benzophenone is one of the most powerful free radical generators known to man. It is used in industrial processes to initiate chemical reactions and promote cross-linking(15). Benzophenone is activated by ultraviolet light. The absorbed energy breaks benzophenone's double bond to produce two free radical sites. The free radicals desperately look for a hydrogen atom to make them "feel whole again"(15). They may find this hydrogen atom among the other ingredients of the sunscreen, but it is conceivable that they could also find it on the surface of the skin and thereby initiate a chain reaction which could ultimately lead to melanoma and other skin cancers. Researchers at the Harvard Medical School have recently discovered that psoralen, another ultraviolet light-activated free radical generator, is an extremely efficient carcinogen. They found that the rate of squamous cell carcinoma among patients with psoriasis, who had been repeatedly treated with UVA light after a topical application of psoralen, was 83 times higher than among the general population(16).The benefits of sunlightSome scientists believe that UV light causes skin cancer through the combined effect of suppression of the immune system and damage to DNA(10,17). Exposure to UV light is, however, not all bad. Most of the body's vitamin D supply, about 75% of it, is generated by the skin's exposure to UVB rays(18). Using a sunscreen drastically lowers the cutaneous production of vitamin D3(19). A low blood level of vitamin D is known to increase the risk for the development of breast and colon cancer and may also accelerate the growth of melanoma
they dont want you to know this because its a scam and huge money maker for the health care industry.

basically it goes like this,
get them sick on crappy food, make them fat and lazy, then ream them with insurance and health care costs with drugs and surgery that is not needed.
dont get me wrong surgery for trauma is wonderful. it is needed for emergencies. but not for 90% of what it is currently used for.

hope you get my message. i have to hit the road, white line fever.
