You put in some amazing laps.<BR/><BR/>Another observation about the difference between the lawyers and the docs: The docs obviously get paid by the procedure; thus, they were content after three laps to call it a race--mission accomplished. Whereas, the bill-by-the-hour attoreys were compelled to keep going until the the couse was closed. Just think, if I had been billing instead of riding my bike for 7.25 hours of ride time (gotta round up), I would have made over $1600. However, I can definately say that the experience was worth more to me than the lost billables, which when you actually think about how much time I've spent sitting in the office analyzing results, photos, blogs, etc., is quite a lot. Anyway, good times, fun race, great team, amazing support. Thanks to all! <BR/><BR/>To the faclessghost: sure a singlespeed would be cool, Eric, but you should ride the course first with gears and suspension and then decide what you want to do. My front suspension saved me, and after a few laps it was nice to be able to put it in the granny gear in spots. At times I was even wishing that I could have traded my hardtail in for a full suspension on that course. Regardless of what bike you ride, it would be cool to have you down there next year. I'll certainly be back for more.old schoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14729169841526308915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6845005882900867258.post-60006767972056932292007-10-16T08:12:00.000-06:002007-10-16T08:12:00.000-06:00Nice!

I love that photo of John in the starting stampede. <BR/><BR/>By the way, I talked to my brother last night--we still want to roll the single speeds next year.Faceless Ghosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12470490022885019213noreply@blogger.com
