5 minute bonus for riding with an actual trolling motor battery.
This is the closest camping in town, or PM me for secret info... Wapiti Park Camp Grounds

what if I bring a whole car battery? 5m sounds awful generous... no camping this week though, got to get back to ride some gravel in the morning.

I'll be there!
Last week didn't feel right without a Thursday/Friday night race. My wife kept asking why I wasn't going the race. A week without a race feels like winter. ![]() I also missed Eddy. A week without Eddy is like a week without sunshine. |

At least it will be dark out so the rest of us won't have to watch...

Oh yeah, Eddie requested that you stop trying to give him mouth-to-mouth after the race. That's not what he meant when he said he was out of breath.

Well... that's taking things a little too far. Eddy and I have more of a Carl/Lenny relationship, but without the icky connotations. I'm Lenny.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenny_Leonard http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Carlson ![]() Lenny publishes a newspaper called The Lenny-Saver with the headline: "The Truth About Carl: He's Great." After displaying this, he sheds a tear and states that "it had to be told."

Back to business...
Remember, registration at 6pm and race start at 7:30pm. The race will begin just after sunset, so there'll be a little bit of light left for the prologue. As soon as you enter the woods though, it'll be dark. It will be darker sooner each week too. How about this for a change-up, you know, since we like to keep it fresh and un-boring out there; FREE PIZZA!!! We plan on ordering a few pizzas so that everyone can get a bite to eat after the ride. Let me know if you want to order more for yourself and have them deliver it with our order.
