I am proudly slower than all of you guys at squiggy and I only did 1 lap

I without a doubt have the best endo to crash at squiggy.

With out a doubt......I will never forget it.....The hilarity was enhanced by the pain killers I was on....the look on your face was the best ever!

Appreciate the offer of the spare camelbak.  but looks like I need to wrap up some lose ends this weekend. Bike stuff and "house" things.  I'll be at next weekends ride. We're still settling into a new house, so plenty of work to get done. But I'm on the home stretch of the honey dew list.

ok guys. with all of your help, and me learning the MTB lingo... narrowed it down to:

Kozmik Lite II's in a 2.0 @ 452g

Maxxis Ignitors in 2.10 @ 510g

Maxxis High Roller 2.10 @ 480g

Panaracer Fire XC Pro 2.10 @ 590g

  Opinions guys?  Oh, and I do appreciate everyone's input/help. Thank you.

From this list i've used the Fire XC Pro UST's, nice tire but the threading wears out quick.
I'm now quit happy with the WTB Weirwolf UST
