anybody planning to run me over better have good bike control and be able to bunny hop a LARGE object...clydes are not the easiest to roll over
Bunny's racing too? I would just go euro style.  This race is going to be a blast.It will be cool hanging with all of you heads sunday! I am going to try to go up saturday and pre ride and maybe get a hotel room. Okay, some of you will have to introduce yourselves, since I haven't put screen personnas to faces and ACTUAL people yet. :-) Should be a lot of fun once past Jon Brown! haha |

Bunny's racing too? Regretably no, on the insistance of my Ortho Doctor. I made the mistake of asking him. Sucks too because I am actually feeling much stronger. Completed the vortex loop with little drama last Sunday(ok, one fall). I will be rooting for all of you guys, I am going to the T/C ride to guide in the morning and have been talking to my wife about coming up to Santos after. I hope to get up there, either way I know all of you will do well. For the record, you wouldn't have to go over me.......maybe around but not over. I love John Brown.  |

Good luck everybody. I am going to spend family time with the wife and sons up on the Suwannee RIver. Chillin', riding Sea-Doos, waterskiing, kneeboarding, and wakeboarding. See you at Boyette. Kenny |

Three more days and I don't feel so good. I feel like I'm going to throw up or something. So freakin excited.

One of those leaping sturgeon hitting my son's kindergarden teacher's parents boat last Labor Day not far downriver from us. They ended up hit an old railroad tressle before running onto the river's bank. They were in the hospital several weeks before returning back to Plant City. |

The bruised ribs from my endo last Thursday at Boyette has not gotten any better. My son jumped on top of me yesterday and it agravated it more. 2 advils every 4-6 hours have kept me going all today today. If the race had been today, I would not have suited up to start. I will be rolling Sunday even if I average 6-8mph and can't lift my handle bars. No way I am missing it... Gotta go find my old percoset pills now.... See you there!!!

Marcel, you are endoing too much my friend. You either need a bigger bike, set back seat post, or longer stem. Quit crashing Primo!! |

You guys heading up tomorrow afternoon might have to dodge some rain drops. There is a pretty good chance of rain for Saturday afternoon. That just means the trail will be nice and tacky for Sunday. I've been riding for only 7 months will be my excuse. See ya'll up there Sunday morning, bright and early. |
