    So fun. Dry and extremely fast. Hotter than heck, though. I crashed 6 times, though. Screw log crossings. Caught my left pedal on a root not even 10' into the singletrack and went flying to the woods. Practically started last and finished 30th. I had a blast. I'm completely addicted to racing.

    cool. I broke a helmet when I raced there. went otb and landed on my head at about 20 mph. I'm glad I wasn't there today, though.
    I may have to grow old, but I'll never have to grow up.

    Good work! I got 24th out of 28 two years ago in the Novice class. Keep at it, it only gets more fun.

    What a great race. It was the first time in the 3 races I've done there where it was dry, and boy was it fast.
