Hello Everyone!

Just wanted to let everyone know that, My freinds and I have consturucted  a freeride park in my backyard to mess around on in the offseason, and are soon going to add a pump track and dirt jumps. It has the following= six foot drop, 20 foot teeter totter with roller coaster, 5 ft natural drop, and a really big drop, which I havent really measured, but it is a good 2.5 people high. I am really excited about it. I am looking forward to next season.

The Showdown at sugar was alot of fun this year. Next year on the 6th of June or so they are going to have Nationals! My practice run, I did not know the couse very well, so I ended up on the beginners course somehow, which was very different from the expert course. Pretty much the whole race I was trying to clip in due to the mud, so i just had to deal with it, I took a pretty tough crash though at the beginning of the course and I was lying on the ground trying to unclip my shoes, it took a while, but then I got back on the Rockgardn and went down semi-clipped in. Later in the course I caught up with the kid who had started before me , and I passed him, then, I slipped off to the side into a photographer and he passed me but I passed him again, at the finish, I was dissapointed with my time, but it was a fun race and very well organized! Next time I wont run spd`s, or at least ill find some to shed mud, but I did learn the course and I would feel very confident racing next years nationals there!

Well, I returned from the Fontana Race. It was not really a Downhill race, considering most people were riding trailbikes and you had to pedal for 2 minutes up a grade on a fire road on the cross country race course. Maybe I Just was not prepared, but I still had a Great Time! Next time Ill ride my mountian cross bike.
