Well 2 days later I'm still bloody sore.

Oh yeah I forgot to mention my freind Matt who was driving the other boat from Karekare
He managed to catch a Mullet during the race.
it was big enough that when he ran it over with the boat the klonk when it hit the prop guard made him stop to see what had happened to it.
and Rob who was crewing saw the Mullet lying there utterly stunned grabed it and threw it into the boat!
Unbeliveable he had time to catch a fish in the middle of the race and still beat me by 2 places.:rolleyes:

11foot whale boats or like shells?

sounds like whale boats but you never know...

An IRB is an Inflatable boat....Like a Zodiac.
2.4 meters long with a 30hp outboard motor.

The race is a distance of 60miles (from one end of the beach to the other).
The whole distance to be spent in the surf break, except at 4 compulsory fuel stops, and a stop to carry the boat over a sandspit halfway down (worst part of the race carrying the boat/motor/fuel 100meters over soft sand.).
And about 1 third of the way down you leave the surf break and circle an island 1km offshore.
And then again at the last fuel stop 2 of the crew have to run half a km inland climb a hill (200ft high) and return while the third member tries to refuel the boat (not easy single handed).

By the end of it you are so tired that as you battle the waves you just get thrown around like a rag doll in the boat.

The waves out at the Island were F**Kin scary! :eek:
out there they were running at about 12ft.
and solid. It was like haveing green 2 story houses comeing at you at 20miles an hour.
then there was the huge back wash off the Island. the waves would come at you from any angle.

Monkeyboy, nobody cares.

And Dave, that sound like it must've been SWEET.

I'm going for a 1.3 mile bay swim in the morning, using only underwater strokes. This will be my longest swim, not to mention one of my first few ocean swim. It should be a good time.

Apparently they resent my Usurping their power with my gathering of the forces of evil under my Dominion....in order to bring on the Apocalipse.:devil: :devil: :devil:

Sexual assault is different than regular assault. And battery is making physical contact with the intent to cause bodily harm. Would touching somebody "down there" be battery? I think it'd be sexual assault, but then again, I'm just a simple amature gynocologist.

Anyway my team did pretty damm good in the race over the weekend. :D :D

It was officially the largest mountain bike event in the woprld!
with OVER 3,000 riders involved.
There were about 60 doing the race solo but the rest of us were in relay teams of 5 (12 hour length race, from 10.30am - 10.30pm).

There were 500+ teams in my division (mixed open) and we came 18th equal!!!!!!!!! :D :cool: :D

Congrats Mr. W. My race weekend was less exciting. I had arrived at the mountain rather late friday night, and then met up with some people from my general area. We f'ed around until about 1 or so, when the RV of a friend's team finally showed up. We shot the s with them until about 2, and then went back to the hotel. 4:45 rolls around and some douchebag knocks on the door and tells us it's time to get up. Close door, sleep till 6. Load up, drive, register, on the mountain by 7:45. 3 practice runs without issue, 1st race run, slower than my usual(hadn't ridden downhill for ~2 months, still a respectable time) 2nd race run, I decide to pin it, but my chain decides to break, so i go the last 3rd of the course without pedalling. at the bottom, get off, sprint my cycle across the slightly uphill finish. 4th place by 3 seconds:mad: :mad: :mad:

Oooooh that bites Amateur. :(

up dated placeings...18th not equal..

mixed open results we are team geeks
(got that name from the make up of our team. German, English, English, Kiwi, Scotish.)

Not bad considering the number of pro riders out there (and most of the national cycling squad)
including olympic medalists.
But I must say rideing a steel full sus DH bike around that XC course was hard work.

Good job to you both.

On a good note for me, I FINALLY got a new fake id this weekend. Thank god. You might not see me on the board as much because I'll be in a drunken stupor most of the time.

Not that thats too different from what I'm usually, but you know how it is.

Bah, with the chain, i most likely would have gotten 3rd (3 seconds off) possibly 2nd (4.37 off) but the arse who should definately have race JrX decided not to and won by 27 seconds
