HAHAHAHA BTW I just got off the phone with my GF's sister who we will be meeting up with in vegas (her sister will be coming from chicago with her husband) said she would like to do the practice and qualifying on saturday and maybe even the street party and then the race for sunday. so let me know if you would like to meet up. I plan to get there friday and maybe check things out. before we check into the hotel.


BTW, does anyone know of any trails in vegas for MTBers? thatd be cool!

Up in Red Rock Canyon there are some great MTB trails.........it's up West Charleston past the new Red Rock Casino.
However if you have time Boulder City has the best trails.....
Have fun.

Josh I'm glad you didnt get hurt ... it's really a crap shoot. You never know. When you announce to people that are familiar with the terminology it usually works out. When you announce to people that have no idea what you mean well.......good luck. They generally stand still or move in the direction you call out. It's hard to be mad at them because they just dont know.... Nonetheless glad you came out unscathed.

:roflmao: it really doesn't matter the order in which you finish, as long as you finish. Oh yeah and as long as you're not racing :p The pictures came out really nice by the way.

HEHEHE actually I wasn't the last one back to the house... Dan and I attacked torrey pines along side one another and there were two others behind us... dave and..... his name escapes me:o

but yeah... it wasn't a race. I had a REALLY good time. My coworker mark has been flaking on me so I've had to ride alone after work... so it was nice to ride with others!
