The weekend is over. Im still sober. Take it and love it.


12 Hrs of Santos rolled out this weekend with a uber fun course set up around the vortex pit and dirt jumps. I had to work on saturday so i wasn't planning on racing, but fri night i ended up joining up with a team whose 4th person had to bail last minute. i rolled down straight after work and showed up around 6 pm ready to go. thats when i found out we where in last place and had been lapped by quite a few teams. sweet!! talia pretty much hands me the team band and says have fun, so i rolled out to see just how long i could go at 100% effort before i imploded. first lap, no issues, 40 mins with a bunch of skids not knowing where the course went. souds good i figured i could knock at least a minute off in the second lap with a little course knowledge, maybe even catch chris jusasomthin who was limping around the course in the solo class up ahead. of course 10 mins in my sweet hid niterider light goes out (gotta love not working $600 lights) so i find a point to cut off the course and sprint back to the pits and dig around for a battery. I find kelli's and sprint back to where i got off and start roasting trying to make up lost time. im rolling through the course about to hit the second red trail section when i hear big mitch hollering at me saying that regan woodall was just ahead and to try and cath him. hell yeah! i hit that NOS tank and roll up on regan in the first bit of the red. we juke out for a bit laughing cause we weren't even in the same class before i had to roll on being that i was trying to make up lost time an his team was winning the open money by 30 minutes or something absurd. 52 minutes for the second lap even with all the light bullshit. i rolled out for the third lap knowing that i just had to be back before an hour and had an uneventful 43 minute finisher to my ride. below is an interpretation of my pass on regan.

that pic is a slow motion version obviously.

im selling some bikes to pay for my spring break trip up to asheville. go to the goody and buy them please. id really like to see the girl, and the ridings pretty sweet too.

dano out.
