In Ruston, louisiana, there is this awesome course, and I missed it this year...grrrrr. I headed over to LA to visit my bro and watch him in a little karate tourny....then maybe sneak over to the trail and do some riding.

Jason got screwed...multiple times, but hey getting DQ'd is way beter than flat out losing.

Then there was this Jimbo. This guy was the coolest cat around, we called him the blind guy, but was suprised of his karate abilities. Soon after I took this picture, he was looking at me.....I guess he can sense the flash!



After returning home, I decided to go and ride Hville...since this IS my home course and figuring I haven't ridden it for a couple of months now. It's fast...as always...and not just because I was riding chill, it's gonna be a leg breaker of a race to say the least. Pulling a sub hour lap riding a flat rear half of the lap is descent, I would say.....or would I?
