well. i got there friday early and visited the campsite of loonatic and the mtb_Rob_FL for a while. the weather was pretty crappy. Severe thunderstorms and whatnot. I decide to go after a few minutes up to the main campsite to see if anyone had arrived and they had not. i set up a tarp and my tent and begin waiting. The greensboro crew showed up and the drinking began.
We decided that motomike is gay so we lashed out at him with gay jokes all night long.
saturday we wake up and burly shirley is there with his girl leslie (who has a nice ass) and we begin assembling to go on the saturday death march. it ends up being about 20 or so on the saturday ride and it didnt rain at all that day so that was cool and the group that stuck with me had the most fun with about 15 or 16 full on river crossings. My seat snapped off the seat post and Chase got a flat and those were the only 2 mechanical issues we had. Some people definately went in up to their necks. there are no pictures of the trail ride from saturday. most people in the group (before it got split) would not have even considered the notion of stopped for 2 seconds to wait for people at intersections much less wait for someone to set up a photo.
saturday night we went to the chinese buffet after sorting through the worst shuttle massacre ever. it was absurd how lame the shuttle ended up but whatever. people were soaked it was cold so we just wanted to get back. wooglin showed up which was cool although he forgot some important things which set his arrival time back by about 4 hours.
the buffet was good, motomike ate lobster balls and i crop dusted the buffet line.
at the campsite we decide that chris (motomikes tent buddy) is gay so the pressure is off mike and onto chris so the gay jokes are flying again as well as beer and toxic fumes from my ass. The greenville crew shows up which is cool even though they are hippies. there was an unsuccessful attempt to duct tape motomike to a tree as well but apparently that lil guy kicks pretty damn hard.
sunday we shuttle Perry Cove after a few guys huck the drop at the back of the campsite and burly shirleys girlfriend gets loonatics truck stuck then i take the greensboro crew over to the local dirt jumps and they are a little bit mushy but those guys still go off.
enough jibber jabber though. here are the facts:
miles covered-i have no idea
gay jokes-at least 250
beer drank-a ton
monkeys in attendance-10 or 11
non monkeys-10 or 11
broken frames-1
broken seat-1
flats-1
amount of food consumed at buffet-at least 20 pounds
stuck trucks-1
farts-a lot
here are some pics:
base camp
greensboro crew tents
chase on the campsite drop
motomike on the campsite drop
loonatic on the campsite drop
will trying to keep warm while soaking wet
a truck full of bikes
a broken banshee
wheelie mert
motomike
motomike gettin himself some breakfast
mmmmmmmmmud
all in all i think most everyone had a good time. next year it will be in june and there will be several things done differently that i will not go in to. it was good meeting everyone and hopefully i will see you guys again soon. feel free to post amongst yourselves now.
