I'm a FUN-GI!

I weigh 210 on the nose. I could lose 9.9 lbs between now and the event, and still qualify.
![]() ![]() At my heaviest I was 217, but 8.5% BF. That was a little too big for my taste and I didn't feel graceful at all. I haven't lifted in a while so the muscle has shrunk and the gut has grown a little. I would like to lift again, but I am having a hard time finding motivation, and I blew out my left rotator cuff and I can't lift heavy like I used to. Besides, I want to start riding more so I'm probably going to end up leaning down anyway. Don't need any more size or strength to ride well, I really need to work on my endurance instead! Traverse and Temecula are going to kill me, but my competitive racing days are long over. I was ~160 lbs when I was racing back in the day. It was kinda humbling when those 15-year old kids met up with us along the ridge and they climbed right by me almost effortlessly as I was wheezing along, lungs and quads burning. I was thinking to myself...WTF happened? That used to be ME! I'm getting OLD!!! ![]()

Hey Pugz, thanks for a great ride. Can't wait for you to post up a new and interesting Newb ride. (no pressure
) Thanks to everyone too who showed up. I'm still amazed that we can get such a large group of polite friendly people who all love the same thing.

I enlisted another buddie of mine to join us for the Sat Aliso ride. We parked at the main parking lot, I signed in and we scooted up the canyon to meet everybody at 8 am. With so many riders, I thought it would be a good move to try and slpit up into smaller groups so I took a group over to Disneyland. Most of the other 10 riders hadn't been there before and really enjoyed the sweet single track that leads to the point. Snaped a group shot (sorta foggy) and back we came.... down Meadows, up Dripping Cave, Coyote and back. When we got to Cholla most decided to go back while a few brave souls joined Mike and me for another trip up Cholla and down Rocket.
Technical note: I was riding my Blur for a change and couldn't understand why the fork (Fox100X) felt so funny.... it was only after Rocket that I discovered that the rebound dampening was all the way closed and I basically had a rigid fork once it packed up... Rocket and rigid just don't go together! Anyway, great to see many old friends and meet and ride with new ones... Looking forward (as always) to the next STR happening. I'll be working the Traverse at the top of Holy Jim next weekend. say hello when you go through.

Wish I would have made it but ahhhh I did not get much sleep the night before from the injury that I had on my hand from playing Golden Tee.
