    Welcome to the boards from North SoCal:beer:
    Nice photos as well. You even made some of the STR riders look like they know what they are doin';)

    If I did not know any better I would have thought this to be PhotoShopped

    I had a great weekend riding this new trail. At first I was a little discourged but after a few more rounds I really started to like it and found my lines fairly easy to hit and didn't have to much trouble with the loosness.

    Was a little disapointed in myself for not taking practice seariously enough. I was sitting on the start box wondering would my first sport class race go down as my slowest every? Well it certainly felt good. I got pedels in where I wanted and only missed one corner. I can't wait for the times. After they said it would be an hour I went into town to grab a bite to eat and came back. But alas no results.

    Thanks for some of the great pictures. P.S. got to meet some STRer's again that I didn't really remember since it was in the dark at the Halloween ride. Not sure of there screen names but, nice to meet ya.

    Look at that focus!!!
