[QUOTE="craig_enid, post: 960773, member: 17772"] Well, the results are posted so I can speak with some facts backing me up. Firstly, thanks to Enduro_Nut for making the trip and hauling us all to the site. The enclosed trailer made packing and traveling alot easier. Secondly, Swift had one heck of a race. In our group, he was top gun, and took or shared best time honors in 4 of the test sections. Me thinks he needs to make a few more of these little races..... Enduro_Nut needs to get serious and get on of his 'puters rigged up on the bike. He dropped 12 'hot' points in the first timekeeping check because he was trusting an A and B rider to know what they were doing. Then to add insult to injury, a fouled plug or a soft seize in the first grass track section gave him another 10 points. That's a total of 22 points, a heavy load to carry the rest of the way. Even so, he still picked up the best time in 3 of the sections. Dwreck and JeffDirt both put in consistent rides with Dwreck outright winning one test, and sharing another. Jeff ended up sharing best time in one section. Not bad for someone who hasn't been on a bike in too long. Me? I lead for the start of both loops and kept everyone slowed down so they wouldn't burn checks 1 and 9. Once through those timekeepers, I let them by to fend for themselves through the test sections. Zerotact, next time we'll get you with us on a row. I guarantee you would have had better times riding with a group that tried to stay together as much as possible. Random memories..... 1) Enclosed trailers are -very nice-. 2) The night sky at 1:30AM on 9-11-05 at Black Jack, Missouri was phenomenally beautiful. 3) Dwreck's quote. 4) Nobody got hurt. 5) Zeroing a timekeeping check is satisfying, moreso when you do it on purpose. 6) It was dang dusty. 7) The grass track was a hoot! One section spiralled in to a u-turn, then spiralled back out. When broadsliding in towards the u-turn (or out to the exit), you passed riders to the left and right that were going the opposit direction. You were chasing one, and trying to outrun the other. 8) Going from praising the Lord for the opportunity to do the event, to thinking that next time I'll just stay home and scrape off my flesh with a cheese grater. Same effect, but no travel time and cheaper. 9) Great seeing Jeff again, and meeting his buds. (Dwreck's quote relates to this.) 10) I should start a service that breaks camp, and packs up for competitors, after races. I would pay alot for that luxury, especially right after the race when I'm laying on the cooler knowing I physically can't even pull my boots off. 11) It's easy to spot someone with a leg cramp. 12) I am NOT a long course rider. 13) Dwreck makes fun of my auto-clutch...... and I don't care.....:) 14) I had one great weekend. 15) The West Texas Boondockers 2-day enduro is 10-8, and 10-9 at Matador, Texas.
