She's a package deal with Gee Spot, and Gee Spot couldn't get the time off work. I wish they were able to come, but I'm also very happy to have Deyv and Isa on the team! This is going to be great!

You could most definitely crash with us, like Echo said. We'll have plenty of room.

Thanks, you guys rock.

Hopefully I will be coming up with another guy from the BikeStop who is also running solo and hopefully another 4 person team from this area who can help support us solo guys. Virginny will be represintin'.

Even if you do not need your solo camp site, book it anyway. We can store all our beer there. :monkey:

So, who thinks it would be worth it for me to get a divorce so I can do the race with TreeSaw and Instigator, then patch it all up afterwards?

Unless there is a scheduling conflict, and she just wont let you go, I would just recommend a straight up divorce.:devil: J/K

:eek: You'd do that for the team ;) a divorce though...seems a bit harsh. Have you tried begging and pleading yet...or I could...just to help you out a bit!

Ok, thought this was kinda funny. So I'm checking out the website for Dalton, and I end up on Holiday Farm's site, and I found a good definition for 'technical':

'A "technical" section is a place where you are likely to go over the handlebars if you don't know what you're doing.'

Echo, your new sig has been found.

I was just trying to apply some smacktalk, since that's what the thread is for. Once I get divorced and fly out there for the race, I'll buy you a beer.

Well since you already said my name, I guess that is the way it has to be.

Faster or slower than echo....you ask?
Well if I start riding 4 hours a day, every day, until race day, I might have a chance of keeping up with my fast friend echo!


(hint.....I could not possibly do all that riding before the race, so..........)
