ummm.... what are we talking about?

i don't think i'd classify myself as a "go-big-er"...


but yeah. sure. don't want to be the only one riding... sure i won't be, though. shane and company are out there a lot.

there's a little photo contest type thing that i'm gonna enter, and one of the themes is "work hard, play hard"...wanted to get some shots of guys jumping at TRU. i thought about it and realized that if someone's doing the lines at Tru, it's big enough for me...

Everyone will be out at Cloud Croft this weekend for the downhill race. So I doubt you will see many people out at TRU...

hmmmm.... with everyone gone, it would be a cool time to practice out there. too bad young's out of town.... but whatever. you want to head out there this weekend, inbred? or what? next week? i don't know... my availability is way good, now. oh yeah... i was at ninth today, too. that was pretty cool. was only there for about ten minutes, though.

Clay was at 9th yesterday. had to go to BSS for a tube...damn, those DH tubes are HUGE. as for riding...availability now is gonna be sketchy. got a couple weddings coming up...if anything, i'll post up before i go, 'cause my riding's gonna be spontaneous. more than likely be 9th during the afternoon while no one else is there....

ok, after thoroughly embarassing myself today in front of a group of other 26"-ers, i think it's time to figure out what the hell i'm doing wrong. i'll be there at about 2 tomorrow if you want to join.

i'll be making a run to houston tomorrow morning, but... might be back early afternoon. i'll see if i can get down there, man!

who else was down there?

and what were you trying to do that you got embarassed on?

hmmmm?

some dude on a Da Bomb Sputnic with a Shiver SC, a guy named Trent on a P.1 (got a pic of him manualling), and one other guy on a Trek 4500. other kid with curly hair was on a Fit 20"-er, but i've seen him before on a P.1.

i was just cruising around thinking i was hitting the spine good, but apparently, i'm getting air 'cause of speed rather than technique. that bothers me.

okie, i'm gonna have to bail today. seems my shoulder's a little stiff from the spill yesterday. i'll be there tomorrow, though, around noon.

hey man, i took off from 9th at about 10 till 1...got there a little earlier than expected, and had to leave earlier than expected. sorry if i missed you. i was sucking it up, and the wind was strong as hell.

yeah... i got down there later than expected, around 3:00. it was really nice, cause the wind was gone and the sun was out and the trails were deserted... but... since the trails were deserted, i got bored really quickly and left. we'll hook it up soon, though, i'm sure...
