that race was hard

i stole this pic from forrest.


i wont bore you with the play by play. i got pretty much worked over by sager and bryson, spannring. i held on to 4th, lost 5 mins on the last lap and finished just in time of a charging pack of 5.
i hate going backwards but its better than last week.

im still waiting for the dream ride of 3 weeks ago to feel like super man again. even when i feel that good bart and sager are still faster. i dont care if i get 10th if i can feel strong thats fine with me.




2.5 hrs today it was hard. ya hard. ummm im blown so im tired from staying up all night and im going to sleep.

i got some sweet pics, upcoming interviews check it out, but heres a preview.



forrest








hes racing green, for the lamen that means riding from his house, 1 speed 2 lap race, then riding home.




keepin it real.



the green lantern


when you hear bart or sager say they are jet lagged tired, over trained, sick or blown. that means they are going to attack you, put big time on you and win.







dont believe the lies.



elena




here is blakes significant other.


who wouldnt want to interview her?











blake z aka thumbs mcgee





thumbs mcgee is makin a come back to the racing circuit after a blown thumb.








bryson



ok he raced 110 miles saturday won the race then came out and smoked me.

good job bp. i wish i could have been on your wheel.











the legend glen adams


when i was 15 i was a green horn on local mtn scene. glen was a top 10 norba pro. i watched them shred laps with ned, tinker and tomac.
amazed wondering how they hauled so much ass.
3rd in worlds downhill 1991. tomac got 2nd so that says it all.

now he still races, rides a ton, works with bikes and still can drop anyone half his age with ease.



once i get the info i will post the interviews. i cant wait.




i got ali g's info down below check it out.

and dont forget to vote for shannon and jen.

jen hanks and shannon need more votes so go do it.
vote for them here, they could win a trip to the transalp stage race in july. voting is down to the top 5 so if you want to help them out go vote. oh ya and shannon has a pet turtle.

A few comments about the people featured on the blog.

1st off, Bryson, Fantastic job today. your fitness is ON right now and I'm very happy for that, but do you really need booties in a mountain bike race

Too bad I missed Glen Adams. If you don't know him you need to some history work in mountain bike racing. HE IS A CYCLING LEGEND and you better show some respect! (I'm not referring to you Cris, you know)

Third, dispite not feeling PRIME today you still rocke the house. You've come a long way and no matter what it's always good to see you back on the podium.

Oh yeah! and for Sager... we'll miss you taking us to town every weekend, but maybe not that much. Have a nice time in Boulder and don't foreget to come back from time to time.

You may not realize this but you got me enthusiastic about racing again. I had a blast today and yes I was in the pain cave all day!
