A "Tumble" Riding

Wow, great day here in WPA. Mid 60s, blues sky and sun. Oh yes! Hit the dirt with the Dos Niner for about 1:45. Short and sweet 14 miles of tight single track.

Down side was I took 1 or 2 falls. Damn, Fall is great riding , but the damn leaves on the trail really f*ck with my eyes. Then coming off a super small log pile I see a small log laying perp to the trail, try to avoid it, twist my front wheel, endo and then get smacked in the head with the bike and forehead with a pedal. Yikes!

Then in another tight corner my bar gets caught on a small tree and slams me down. Damn! I took more falls withing 20 minutes today than I have the past few months!!

Might be close to selling the El Santo. Have somone interested, but we're in a bit of a haggle. I'm hopeful, but not too hopeful. Dig?

Had a couple friends over for some baked rigatoni and turkey balls tonight. Bad wine, and good beer.

Hope you all are having a great weekend and hope my Bikeman.com teammates are enjoying another CX filled weekend.

Later.

I hope your dashing good looks weren't affected by the pedal to the melon. Happy healing.

God no, I'm still as good looking as ever. The scabs just give me "character".

Fashion week begins!!
