    I'm pissed! Training even harder this next two weeks.

    Nope, thats notthe case, i havent ridden cross country or pedaled in months, and i think i am going to try my hand at beginner men open singlespeed, and race my Black Cat, but i'm not sure.
    that or possibly beginner Cross country, or sport just to get my two laps worth of entry fee's.

    I´m not even going to bother saying I´m going to turn up. On the other hand, are there any other possible scenarios that will prevent a debut.........?
    The list so far:
    Snowed in.
    Hangover (preventable, I know#-o)
    Sick
    Marzocchi recall on 888 fork (now back from them).
    What more could possibly go wrong....................Oh no, jinxed myself with that one.
    Have also managed to go over the bars not just once but THREE times this year, once on a flat, straight asphalt road while attempting a pretty basic trick.

    Definitely not attending any events to do with mountain biking or any other sports this year. Nope, I refuse to turn up no matter what.


    (Ha, that should do it;))

    I've decided that Bflo should race DH on his XC bike. I did it on one of the chunkier courses. I say DO IT. I'll let you use the 66 on the front of the black cat even (we can drop it to like 120mm) :)

    Marzocchi took my fork too! After the new tech guy verified that my 888 was fine even though it fell in between the recall dates then they called the path and had me take it in because the tech didnt know what he was talking about
