Cross Practice
Brad mentioned in the cross course ideas about when are we starting out Thursday night cross practice at Eagle Island. I think we should start the week after Lotojah. So lets gear up, dust off the cross bikes, put some slim in the tubes (goat heads) and bring some shovels for the jumps. I am going to get over there before we start and take a shovel and head to the back to clean up as many of those plants as possible.
Sounds Fun
The more people out the more fun these training sessions are.
Thursday the 15th
I won't be ridding this thursday due to Carson's B-day. So get the clan together and go have fun on the cross bikes.
Fun?
Hey, when did cross bikes get fun?
Usually, I'm breathing too hard, lagging behind, sliding out, riding on ice, sloshing through water, kludging through mud, trudging through sand, hopping off, hopping back on, clanging bells in my ears, thirsty can't drink, can't catch the hand up, standing climb, sitting climb, clutching brakes, feathering brakes, standing sprint, can't sprint, tight turn, bad turn, stupid line, hey you took my line!
Oh yeah, I sorta remember that stuff.
Don't have a bike so I hope you all have fun.
What?
I thought that sounded like a lot of fun. So what do you need to finish your bike? I thought this was a work in progress and that it would be done by now?
Listen to Larry the Cable Guy
Git r done:) Cross won't be the same without Tom.
Right.
Oh, it'll be the same. I'd be behind the main field about a half lap.
A few more parts and a race cassette.
Exactly!
And that's where I will be too so we can race together. Actually Tom, you will be plenty ahead of me.
Eagle Island Cross
So which night are we starting these on then, the 22nd? I am game, I hurt my knee two weeks ago at home but starting to ride again. Let me know.
