This is the story of my weekend in Texas:
It all started out with the plan of Bswift coming through Stillwater and picking me up and heading to TX246's house in Denton so we could go to the Supercross on Saturday.
The plan was then for Evenslower (who I will refer to as Noah) to pick me up at Gene's on Sunday morning and take me to Davis, OK where my bike and riding gear would be waiting for me as I had left it at Craig_Enids.
That was the plan. It was a good plan.
The only problem was that any time "Noah" tries to bring his Ark (04 KTM 450exc) through Oklahoma we end up with rain of biblical proportions which caused the Boar's Head Enduro to be rescheduled for May 20th due to flooding.
Once word of this reached Craig and Gorp in Stillwater all plans to prepare their own bikes for riding were put on the back burner and other projects were planned for the weekend.
No problem its too wet to ride anywhere anyway right? Well real men aren't afraid of a little mud so a plan is hatched to ride Muenster.
Bswift looked worried that he was going to miss all the fun so I quickly said lets go, I have nothing better to do and can hang out in the shade and talk about riding.
Next thing you know Gene's digging around the garage rounding up extra riding gear. We get to Meunster and JMD has a pair of boots that are my size.
Cool, now if I only had a bike to ride.
Gene offers me his CR to start with so I ride a loop on it managing to get it and all my borrowed gear filthy in a water hole. "Noah" then offers me his Ark for a nice hour+ loop through Bills Woods. I bring it back with boiling gas. After taking a short break Swift offers me his YZ for another loop. The trails were sweeeeeeet!
Several others offer me their bikes also and the teasing starts about my "Factory Ride" and how I've got it made. I think their right. I could get used to this. Nothing to clean up except myself. I offered to wash their bikes if they would bring them to Stillwater. They decided that that was a little out of the way.
I enjoyed the entire weekend. Thanks to everyone for the good old DRN hospitality. It was good to see everyone at the race and I hope that I have a chance to return the favor to each and every one.
I just wish that I wouldn't have left my wallet in Johns van. :bang:
