Ahhhh Fresh Air!

Finally got some trail time in. Felt SSSSSSSSSSSo good to be outside riding. Trails were nice an tacky, and the temps were cool enough for arm warmers but warm enought not to be nipply. Only had time for a 1:20 ride so I could be out of the park by night. Riding at Boyce Park after dark is a "no-no" and can result in fine/bike confiscation etc., We used to ride there all the time at night and just lay low from the 5-Oh but then they started getting real pissy a few years ago.

There were sign up at the park 'ARCHERY HUNT IN PROGRESS". Real nice. That's all I need is an arrow stuck in my ass.

Looks like my crank etc. is en route from Maine. SWEET! Still probably not doing Iron Cross. I would have to register by Midnight tomorrow, then hope that the crank install goes fine and shifts good. I would also be looking at leaving for the race at around 4:30 a.m. Sunday to avoid camping/hotel. DOH! Oh well. Feecus happens. But you never know.

Looks like Jeff Kerkove won over in Japan. COOL! How 'bout he did like 42 laps. WHAT!!! I would go INSANE! I get sick of seeing the same shit after 11 laps let alone 42! Yikes!

Oh well, that's all I got. Time to try to fight some crime.

Later.

Here you go:

From "Elephant" by The White Stripes
1. Seven Nation Army
2. Black Math
3. Little Acorns
4. Hypnotize
5. Girl, You Have No Faith In Medincine

From "Whip It On" by The Raveonettes
1. Demons Fire
2. Cops On Our Tail
3. Beat City

From "Take Them On, On Your Own" By
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
1. Six Barrel Shotgun
2. US Government

These songs "cook" and will get your mojo going.

From "El Oso" By Soul Coughing
1. Rolling
2. Circles
(these will help you keep that good form, ha!)

If you like techno/break-beat stuff go with The Chemical Brother's "Block Rockin' Beats" or Get Up On It Like This" or The Crystal Method. I can remember the DJ at Snowshoe 2 years ago playing "High Roller" by The Crystal Method at night. It was so cool with the lights streaking through the forest.

I personal can't use an iPod during races or riding (except on trainer of course). I can't keep the ear buds in. And on the road here there's too much traffic and I worry about being jacked up from behind.

Good luck and enjoy!

if you need some ragin music do up static x, korn, slipknot, powerman 5000. you can't help but go fast with that stuff blaring in your ears. Stay away from marilyn manson though. I listened to him once on headphones and felt like I was being posessed. Scary.
