I was thinking about it, but me and my fellow Squirrel deceided it would not be fair to our adoring fans to deprive them of the pleasure of watching the SQUIRRELS GONE WILD dynasty twopeat ;D

benji novice, come on man.. :-\  dude.

I know but the first thing I noticed when I got back was I had completely lost my legs.  I rode with greg out at flat woods and despite the horrendous wether, I felt like crap after only 15 miles.  Plus I am still getting used to this SS thing.  If I am here next year I may do the SS class.  besides I'm not looking to win just crack the skulls of the sandbaggers that won novice last year.  NO ONE riding novice should ever show up in a team van......:)

Scott and I are looking to move to the Advanced Team class :)

I love racing solo, but surely I don't always need to do the same thing.  There are plenty of other enduro's I will run solo next year :)

Sorry TL - don't think you could take me on your SS rigid anyways :P

For those racing this weekend I will have a few cold home brews for post ride recovery. Make sure you look for me after the race.

This morning's pre ride was slick.  They added a few more options to the course from last year.  It's a shorter course over all but more difficult.  I hope it will dry out a bit because some of those trails were very slick.  Anyway see Y'all out there tomorrow!!

We were looking for you to get a taste of that beer!   Those trails were very slick especially the long open drop on moonscape. (Martha's vineyard). Slid the whole way down! :o

I will have them tomorrow, I didn't have a lot of time today.  I have to work tonight, until midnight. I will probably be a zombie at the race, but nothing a few good crashes won't fix!!

As for the race couse I didn't get to ride the 3rd ear today.  As I came over the top and around the corner there were a couple of guys sitter there talking.  To make a long story short, I started over the edge and slid further left then down the hill, couldn't make it up the other side walking or riding, so I walked out of that one. I really hope it dries out a bit before tomorrow morning.  What time is registration and race start??
