This is a Spodefest anyone with real riding skillz will be denied attendance. One second tought, do get some execise in the gym though, I need someone to pick up me an my bike from time to time.

You call this riding skillz? I call this "making a complete fool of myself". Addition: Half an hour before the crash, I was bitching about another guy who crashed in the exact same spot in exactly the same way, calling him an incompetent poser. ;-) Hell, at least nobody (except my riding buddy) saw it... > One second tought, do get some execise in the gym though, I need someone > to pick up me an my bike from time to time. Hmmmm. I was almost tempted asking you the same... But I think, picking up the bike should be piece of cake: Such a Honda XR600R seems to be pretty light: http://www.justxr.com/jh_info/summers.jpg Cheers, Volker -- @: I N F O at B A R T H E L D dot N E T 3W: www.bartheld.net
From: SloCalSpode on 15 Jul 2010 10:52 You guys need to stop your ride training right now. Any injury this close to the fest could ruin the fun and leave you to sit in camp all day drinking and talking smack with the few who remain with you. Save the heroics for Willow Creek, Little Water and Snow slide trails......Just a suggestion... =;^) Ask Tami about the virtues of bubble wrap and staying off a bike the week before SpodeFest. Cheers, Jeff
