Did anyone else go? DWreck? I thought I saw your GG loaded up after the event but didn't get a change to investigate.
My buddy and I headed down friday afternoon and crashed at my mom's house in Sapulpa for the evening.
Got up saturday, headed to camp and did the Poker Run. That was blast. I haven't done one of those in years. I ended up with second place in the poker run with 3 Kings. It netted me a trophy and a set of cycra mx hand guards. Cool.
Went to the BJEC year end meeting and changed a few rules and new officers for next year.
Got back to camp just in time to watch the frost form on the bikes. FUN!
Went to bed in my tent, and it was nice and toasty with my heater in there... Until about 4 am when I had to get up to go pee... Nothing is more fun than crawling out of your sleeping bag, realizing your propane heater is dead, and having to put on cold boots, and a cold jacket, then running around the tent trying not to shake so hard you get whiz on you! It must have been 20*.
So then I get back in my tent... and I can't get warm. I finally figure out that my sleeping bag is wet down by my feet. It had been pushed up against the tent side. Great. I curl into a fetal position and try to sleep another couple hours.
6:45, I'm up and I'm shivering around camp, looking like some kind of methadone spaz. women are hiding their small children.
7:30, I have conned a friend into giving me half his breakfast, letting me sit in his warm truck and I'm staring at my bike.. I know its not going to start easily.
So I get the bike started, and i'm at the start line. Everything went well for the first few miles, not big mistakes or falls. Just a pleasant trail ride in the best dirt conditions I've ever seen at Scipio.
After the first loop my buddy and I decided to gamble going into the 2nd loop. We got really early in the first few miles... found a big black cow in the middle of the trail... and then burnt the check by 2 minutes. I was lucky enough to be able to trials ride into the check and only burnt got burnt by 1 minute.
After that my buddy and I decided to just play ride for the rest of the day. My buddies day was over dropping 7 points there, and neither one of us could go up or down in the standings. We had a blast just piddling around. Even stopped a couple times to check out the scenery and check on people on the side of the trail.
All in all, it was a hoot!
