    Hey, Doug specifically told us at the beginning that we were not to engage in any acts of racing. The way I see it, we were just following orders.

    Dang that guy almost took out Doris. Whew, good thing she's got the 12hours of Socal to race in June.

    How'd this guy lose his shoe in the process?

    Must still be stuck in the pedal? :?:

    Or maybe he couldn't find it. Looks like he walked around in his socks for a little while.

    Maurice - Say Hi to Sharon on behalf of KonaDupee, XHuskr, and me. We all ran into each other a few times during various CC training rides. I still can't believe she was serious when she said she wasn't doing the CC but just liked the training rides. #-o

    And Schecky, thanks for posting a pic of the reason we all rode. The shots of the kids games were cool to see since most of us missed that part, but it's great to see the coffee bike and be reminded of the great cause behind this fun event.

    BTW: Only now am I realizing just how many STR peeps were there! Some I met for the first time, some I knew and visited with, and a whole bunch I seem to have completely ignored for no apparent reason and apologize to! Abui, I think that goes especially for you, since I think that was you sitting across the table from MtnKitty and I during the raffle. Sorry!

    Beginner class I pretty much have to give everythign i have to do well and that pace would get me smoked in my age class or sport clyde. I refer to xc racing to anybody who asks me as a heartattack or heat stroke that I pay to do. Most of the guys racing clyde are either really tall and lean or just sand baggers looking for an easy win. Its rare I see a fatguy racing the class but makes me feel that much better to beat the people racing the class. If I ever drop below 230 I will not race clyde as I feel I would just destroy aka be a sandbagger.
