Sadistic...good description. It's gonna take me all week to recover and

I only made it through the first lap. Thanks for the beer and the race

and the beer! Hope to finish it next time (the race I mean).

problems?



Can't wait 'til next year.

Big thanks to the Plummers for putting on a very different race that I've

been wanting for a while now. Also thanks to the support for finding a wheel

for me.



Maybe we can have another race like this in the springtime when its wet.

Brad said it. My knee's this morning are still talking too me. And who

was the sadistic bastard that put those fist sized pieces of "gravel"

on Skull Hollow road? That has to the the hardest "road" I've ever

"ridden". I put that one it quotes because I walked a good portion of

the steep(est) section of the climb.



My hats off to the only other person foolish enough to bring a

single-speed, Wade Beauchamp. He was geared a lot higher than I was,

and rocked the course to a 5th place finish. I was happy just to

finish! Congratulations to all the finishers. My son (who won cat C by

the way :) said after the race - "Everyone who finished this thing

won!"



Can't wait until next year. Thanks Tim and everyone who helped out! A

very special thank to the two mountain bikers who filled my water

bottles on Skull Hollow road. I'd have been in trouble without the

extra water.

Hey atleast you're able to sit down!



Yes those Plummers are quite sadistic but kudos to

them and their crew for putting on a great race that

was different and challenging.



Needless to say I'm sooo looking forward to a short 45

minute cross race next weekend!
