Phew! That's it, I'm done.

 

man those sho-air guys are always in front... 305 riders, thats a hell of a race i can't wait to see the other pics

 

Very nice shots Winston! I was at the bottom of the Motorway and snapped a few shots of the STR crew as they pulled in and took off. After that I took off for a quick ride from Cooks to the Luge and back to Cooks to kill some time. Then I hopped back in my ride and went to the finish line to snap a few more pix of STR crew coming in. Unfortunately my cord to upload the pix is at work so they'll have to wait til monday.

Congrats to all those who participated! It was cool to be there and see you all come into the bottom of the Motorway and assist you guys if you needed anything. My pump kinda became the community pump as rider after rider scrambled to fill up their tires if they needed to be filled. I had to leave the finish line early so I didnt get to see all the bubbs finish. Hopefully next year I can give it a shot on the 29er s/s. (I know I said that last year, but I really mean it this time )

 

I hear Dell (Ladd Jasper) kicked some arse out there! :clap: Must be that Turner he's riding......that thing looks familiar now that I look at it :-k :lol:

Congrats to everyone! Thanks for the pics Winston!!!

 

Yeah. Dell beat me by a minute. Darn you! J/K. He's a "fast hucker." Nope - i'll never tire of that. :lol:

Bret, I think you'll be doing VQ or CC next year for sure. With that 29er of yours ... you will be ready and rearing to go. And I'll have even more competition. Great to see ya out there.

George, your pic is funny. And why do I look retarded in mine? :lol:

Great times! :beer: Great job everybody. It was nice to finally meet some the people I've met on STR.

 

The dude absolutely killed it out there. He was a good hour ahead of George Jose and me.

Thanks for the pics Winston.

Great photos Winston, thanks for taking them. They helped me stay sane today.......at work = ( Congratulations to everyone that participated. I was there for the start to see Ann and a few of the STR's off. Wish I could have joined. BTW Sarah, no wonder your knee hurts, it's bleeding!

 

Sweet.....the Mrs. made the cut:

Thanks so much for taking those pictures! That's my "I want to pose for the picture, but had better concentrate on the trail" look.

 

Big Congrats to Winger! 6th overall in the CC...and he's only getting faster! :bang: Also Matt 8th and Ryan 13th.:clap: (I don't know if Matt and Ryan are on here :?: ).

Nice to meet some of you out there today for the first time too.

 

Awww man... I didn't see any of you. Maybe that's beacuse I was so sloooooow on the Coiler... well I finished and that's what it's all about. I finished in 8 hours and 20 minutes... not to bad for a 37lb bike ;-)

 

Next year!

Thanks for the pics Winston. I pushed the SS to hard going to Beeks Place. You kind of get caught up in it all. I was feeling good and then I hit the Main Divide and the WIND! When I finally got to the bottom of the Motorway it was only 8:25 and I thought I would be fine. I got some water and headed up Maple Springs and by the time I got to the end of the pavement my legs and lower back were cpamping bad and I started second guessing myself. :-k If I would heve taken some gel shots and drank some energy drink I might have made it.

Cheers to all that finished!!! :beer:

Next year more training!!!!

 

Dell.............Sandbaggin secret trainer!!!

Congrats to you all.

 

Congrats to all!! Great Pics Winston!
:beer:

 

when and where can we get all the rankings and stuff?

 

They will get posted on the Warrior's Society Website later this week.

 

aw shucks.

wow - 6th overall winger? nice job!!!!

andy is having too much fun on motorway.

 

A few pics from where CC and I where at...the last water crossing coming down Holy Jim.

Sorry was not out there long enough to get ya all.

Dean

 

sweeet... those pics must have been taken early in the race since everyone is still smiling!

sarah, did your knee blow up or what? looks like blood dripping down your left shin... if cookies were tough, you would be one :bang:

 

um, i fell on the blackstar fireroad. lame. i know. i am blaming it on my bad tires. the funny part is that everyone was asking me whether my knee was okay?! so the scraped knee kinda externalized my internal knee problem ... i was like, "do these people have telekinesis?" my knee has mild-moderate pain the whole time. not too bad i guess. nice to meet you at the start! you were really hauling.
