Haha! Good one Brian. I actually didn't do so well last year though... :29 seconds off the pace. Maybe if you were the one in front of me, I'd have had more incentive to pedal harder. :biggrin:

I'll be racing tricycle class, ages 96-104, Men's geriatric.
I actually switched the basket out for a carbon fibre (yes, I spell it F-I-B-R-E for the 7337 style of riding) one. It's actually lighter than not having a basket at all.Trike class racing tip: Take the huge basket off to save weight and run 24s out back to slacken it out a bit. Make sure the walker is securely tied down.
Ah hey, I met you. I was Kyle's buddy. We met in the motor home.My otter was faily good. It was my first time racing as a Jr.X on the national Level. In DS I qualified 9th wearing my loafers hehehe (i'll post pics when i get em) made it into the 2nd round. first run was on the Blue lane (slower lane) and amado got a .3 Differential. 2nd run on the red lane, i was feeling good, all my practice runs on the red were solid and my qualifier was a 39sec. I wanted to get the edge on Amado at the top, so i added a few strokes into and down the right hand roller thingy. then washed out on that tricky left hander.... ubber bumbed. Good race Amado!
DH- I didn;t bring my Demo due to a Broken rear hub, so in 3 practice runs i used my Commencal Meta 4x (course was little too rough for me) then a versus trigger (thanks adam for letting me borrow) then my friends V-10 for the 3rd practice run and race. out of the gate i came unclipped. then crashed or washed out in the first corner for and unknown reason. the rest of my run was pinned and flawless. I dun know my time nor my result.
Good otter over except for Saturday when it pissed with rain.
the Between the Tape premier was DOPE !!!! hella good movie! I can;t wait to buy it
Congrats Rich!!!!!Josh, saw you going down on your run. Saw the miss-hap at the first table and was thinking, "man, that's not like Josh?" Bummer about the finger man...ouch. At least you got a dry run in. I ended up standing in the rain for almost 45 minutes due to all the delays. (Typical SO.) Anyway, since I wear contacts, I had to stick with the gogs. I basically did the course blind. Hitting the double log step down was an exercise in faith. I saw the lip, but never saw the landing. I nosed it in pretty heavily, but managed to keep it together. Thank you 888!!!
I ended up with a 3:11:8' for 1st place.
