I could not agree more. I still want to be Sam when I grow up.

OK I vaguely remember SJ telling me he'd passed me in the last transit at the end (when I was REALLY dragging) but I THINK I remember asking Kirk where the crew was at the last start control and he and I were (I THINK?) the only ones lined up. I was probably so tired I didn't ever see Joe

I just looked at the scores and Joe did REALLY good! Just a few points out of 2nd in that big class!

I'll leave the Tire/Flat advice up to Wingixer as I think he is WAY more experienced at it than me

Yeah, I was only lined up because Joe told me it was time so he was definitely there. I was only at one of the checks solo and that's because I was late. At the beginning of the previous transfer section they told me to take my time/relax, which I did but I didn't stop or take a break, and I was 3 minutes late checking into the next section. It doesn't really matter as I was just riding to finish...

Yep, very close.

Thank you. I was surprised to see that many people in my class.


I was just looking at the points and I managed to drop the fewest points in class in a section somehow. Clearly I was cheating and/or bribing the officials *edit* just looked at the overall C and only one other person beat me in that section with a 3 to my 4.

perhaps you two were immune to boobs. Hmmm ... are you ... nope, won't ask!

For the reference - rear fender bag and rubber glue are not really compatible on rides like this

Thanks for the glue, WF

I was obviously in a great mood after the boobs check as I did my best test right after that one

I spotted Wingfixer in Bob's Tire today. I guess his flats aren't exclusive to dirt bikes alone.

You really need them, don't you?

Are you tubeless? Why plug the tire?
Forgive my ignorance, I don't get flats, I just bounce off rocks.
