Here it is cropped a bit:
BTW I was walking away when he came by and this was truly a "shot from the hip"

Good stuff Steve.
That one of Doug shows the size of that stepdown.

Was the go around faster? It looks like it would set you up better for the turn, plus Moto and Andy look like they know what they are doing!

 

[stubby]

the go around wasnt as fast but less risky and less sketch. if you werent clearing the whole gap it was faster to go around. but i didnt take the go around for the speed factor i took the go around because i am a puss and didnt hit it.

Andy had a flat in his race run.

Working on DH race report and photos now.

Several people flatted in the cobbles just before the finish line. I did it during practice as well.

i have a BUNCH of pics to upload. i have nothing better to do tonight so ill go get the camera. i'm sitting in my hot house since the a/c pump went out. friggin 86 degrees in here at 830pm!!!

btw, ryan and jamie (sp) worked their butts off for this one and it was a blast probably the BEST schwag i've ever seen at a race and a really cool vibe to boot. noah said it was his favorite race ever and, when he said the blessing over the food tonight he said, "and God...i hope i have another race soon.."

great times and i got to meet some new monkies

brandon gets whipped by noah too he said " dad you better walk my bike up the hill if you know whats good for you" of course he abided. noah rode the lift up.

How'd the SXT do at the race?

I was thinking about getting a double barrel for mine. Is it worth the dough over the fox? I ride mine in the same places you ride yours for the most part. Snowshoe, Sugar, Pisgah, etc. Been doing a lot of climbing to get to the goods and the fox has been good in that department - not sure how the DB is climbing? The design of the bike is so good that it shouldn't be an issue.

Stayed away from the races this year due to injury, but planning on doing the usuals next year and want the bike as plush as i can get it for that.

dude that's rough. not only did i get hassled by basher and kenan...but now you!? i did make him come back to get his bike that time i told him not to ride the lift.
but...i figured that if i wasn't racing i could at least help him push a bike that weighs just under half of his body weight...that's be like a 120lb bike for you paul!

 

[stubby]

burn burn burn you win the burn contest!! hahahahahah roflcopter
actually a 103 pound bike you jerkosaurus.

 

[FCLinder]

Looks like you guys had lots of fun. The course looks fun. Wish I could of made it up, but had to take the wife and son to the beach.

 

[mattmatt86]

The course looks Fluffy.

Fixed!irate2:

The SXT has been perfect at every race I have done on it.
The only flaw with it is that blond haired tape hugging goon riding it.
As far as the DB, it is sweet on that bike.The only thing I change on the shock for climbing, trailriding etc... is the low speed comp.
On the DB, you can actually use the LSC without making the suspension harsh. That way it does not squat as much and rides more balanced. Its for sure worth the dough.

i'm heavier than you!!?! you're like way taller than me!

 

[stubby]

fclinder im glad you wernt there dont want any throw up in the shuttle.

butch had some nice stories hahaha.

^yeap you are hahahha

edit: ok crap nvm i weigh 223 . i used to be 207 i swear. i just took a poo so lets give it 222divided by 2 is 111 lb bike minus a few because a little less than half his weight equates to about a 103 pound bike.

 

[manimal]

[manimal]

that's one of my fav's but i haven't had a chance to edit the exposure yet. that one should pop w/ a little added flash.

 

[Jeremy R]

Man, you photog guys are bringing the heat.
Good shots man.

 

[JeffD]

ROFL...I see Vic had his Camelbak on for the DS. Hydration first!

 

[bizutch]

Look at the expression on Motomike's buddy's face in the background and you can get the gist of how big Greg went on that thing. Hah hah!

When we were kids his dad brought us home 6 55 gallon barrels to jump. I think Greg had them covered up and shaped before dark.

 

[profro]

Butch, are you trying to live vicariously through Greg? Its pretty creepy how much you pimp him.

...yeah...busted. Call me Martin Whitley I guess. Reppin' my riders..

The slower I go, the more I'm forced to cheer for somebody else. Besides, we are buds from way back in grade school. Every day after school the only two boys on a dead end dirt road in a tiny podunk town digging and riding. Not another kid for a half mile.

 

[highrevs]

do you think the photogs from up top will be posting any? those will mos def be "drift-a-licious" tm mrmatt86

I'll have a bunch of photos up before too long. I made it back to town late Sunday and I've only had enough time to look through Saturday's photos.... there are a few that that worked out pretty well.

 

[profro]

I've been waiting on these.

 

[highrevs]

I was wondering how that photo turned out. That's my "huh.. wait... what??? " face.

 

[stubby]

any of a fat kid in a bright orange maxxis jersey on a greenish blackish greyish demo?

 

[stubby]

is mike meditating? ^^

 

[highrevs]

I've been waiting on these.

There are some pretty hot ones in this batch, for sure. I'll do what i can to get them turned around quickly. I don't really get a chance to sit down and process images until late in the evening. I usually have to wait until the other daily duties are done and my son is in bed.

We where both trying to stay cool hanging out in the shadow casted by the lift pole. Being skinny sometimes has its advantages..

ahhh yet another burn on stubby. stubby = 0 ridemonkey members =978214

Littermag and/or Decline needs to take notice and put up some of your images from Southern racing/riding. I'm about sick and tired of the same ole' freehucking/dirt/ramp story and some small world cup coverage.
