Cool, Ill look up the report-

I rode this weekend with TWMC and brought out Kim and the kids. I devoted all my time to getting them riding and didnt race. Kim got hooked and had much fun and got over the fear, heck she had to DJ was out riding her on the pw50. BTW he grew way too much over the summer and is too large for the pw, but that is OK, Colson is good to go full time on the pw.

I didnt race but did the 3rd loop and expert split. Dang it was technical, I dont remember seeing anything that tough in a club event. I havent ridden race pace since last May and I couldnt see a dern thing. Shopping for lasik today :whoa: .

Glad to hear you and the family had a good time riding. I'm sure that makes you happy. Very cool.

Lasik will be great for you - you'll be tearing it up !

The Saddle Mountain stuff was like So Cal. Very similar.
