matt12 - You got some cool pictures of me!

That was such a blast for my first race back in almost 4 months. I ended up getting 6th in Sport 19-34 or whatever the ages are.

I didn’t think the climb was that bad. I wish I didn’t get knocked down into the wrong gear while going down the hill before it. I totally lost all of my momentum right near the top.

Did any of you see me? I was the guys with the black FLY gear and the white Evil Knievel Vans slip ons. Also probably the only one out there with black 40's. =]

edit: I forgot to look for you . Are you going to the next race?

 

[Total Heckler]

Nice.

Definitely! I had such a good time. I’m bummed I didn’t podium but I have a great excuse as to why. Just joking Haha, I’m just stoked to be back out there riding/racing again. I went out there not expecting to even do that well. So I really can’t complain. =]

Here are some shots of me:

What was your time?

 

[PatBranch]

I got 4:29:50.

 

[Total Heckler]

Nice. I ended up getting 4:11:06 I think I missed 5th by less than a second.

I was out there, but I always forget to look for anyone from RM, otherwise I would have recognized the black 40s for sure.

I wrecked in my race run, but I managed to pull a 4:26:09. Heckler, MTB- are you guys going to the next race? I need to do some practice runs with people who are faster than me/have raced more. :biggrin:

Here's me:

[Total Heckler]

bdamschen - I am going to the next race for sure. We could meet up and do some runs together. =]

Haha nice. I think I remembered seeing you. Didnt know who you were though.

 

[NapalmCheese]

Well if you ever see a guy walking around with a super curly and probably fuzzy 'frohawk say hey!

All in all as a group, we aren't hard to miss. Besides, if you're lucky we might kick down an extra hickory-bacon-cheddar burger

 

[PatBranch]

I'll be at the next one.

I have an RM sticker on the front of my helmet.

It says MTNBRIDER on each side with red stickers.

I wish I took those. They were posted by a guy who guys by RickR on many other forums.

I didn't see you... I'll keep an eye out next time! I had a Hollowpiont MTX and a Rogue jersey w/ xc lid and goggles.

 

[Total Heckler]

Ah got it. I will keep an eye out at the next race. =]
