Trail Blazing
Wow, what a great turnout. We had a great day of trail
blazing and were able to cut almost one mile of trail. James brought a bush
hog and followed us as we laid out the trail. We cut branches, vines, and
stumps. We moved logs and brush. We had 11 people show up and really worked
hard. I would like to thank everyone who showed up, it was great to see this
project finally get going. I appreicate it alot. The people who showed up
were James Eno, Kurt Lynn, Jim Mclean, Berti Page, Pat McDonald, Kevin
McDonald, Kevin Mims, Rodger VanDenburg, Thomas Slaymaker, Jack Anderson and
myself. I am going to try and set up another work day in two weeks, I'll
keep you informed.
Thanks again for those who showed up and hope to see everyone and more next
time.

Mountain Bike Race
2009/06/26
Hey hey
I won my mtn bike race today up
in Winder Ga - Grand Masters Cat
3 - it was a combined
Southeastern Regional
Championship and Georgia State
Championship race. The course
was a nice hilly 11 mile loop
that was quite fast. Our average
for our race was 11.5 which
doesn't seem like much compared
to the usual road bike race
reports but trust me thats fast.
I won this one by two minutes
and have the lead in the overall
for the SERC series. Next week
we race in Ducktown Tn. Dana
Bland and his wife showed up on
Saturday and Dana pre-rode the
course with me - it was a blast
to have some company and a
friendly face around.

Well I redeemed myself for my
WEbster debacle (asthma exacerbation
secondary to dust inhalation) - won
my mtn bike race up in Columbus Ga
today by 4 minutes over my huge
field of 7 cripple, old and senile
riders. A win is a win *LOL*.
Actually it was a great course - big
ring (yes Britt you are reading
correctly I rode in the big ring)
course even the climbs. That's 3
wins and one second place so far -
on top of the points in the SERC
series. Hoping to win the series and
one of the the Trek Top Fuel mtn
bikes they are giving away. Next
weekend is Winder Ga - having a lot
of fun riding in so many different
places. - Turbo
