A year racing mountain bikes in review. In pictures mostly.
 |
| Brought my housemate to the Intergalactic Relay in Marysville. He brought a pot and banged it in my ear... Ah roommate love... |
 |
| Crusin' singlespeed style at the Relay. |
 |
| Charging up the Amphitheater Climb at Granogue. Lap something of the Endurance Race. |
 |
| The only race to make you earn your SWAG |
 |
| Rode well enough for fifth place. Someday I will collect all the plaques from Granogue, especially the big one. |
 |
| Got to spend a few quality days at the beginning of the TransSylvania Epic with Ms. Geology. |

| Forrest wanted to buy a Scotty from the supermarket in Harrisonburg, VA, but Tom made him put it back. |

That pretty much sums up my mountain bike season. Well, the highlights at least. Many good times were had, and many new friends were made. That's what this shit is all about afterall.
Look for the year in review, dirty, rotten addiction (a.k.a. 'cross) edition on a computer screen near you in the somewhat near future.
