swimming is dumb also

swimming... back and forth, back and forth. that got boring really quick. not as boring as right now or for the poor person who is reading this.

how to build dirt jumps

This is from a couple of years ago at calabazas. R.I.P.

running is dumb

Day after "running" at Rancho San Antonio and I am sore. shoulders, lower back, thighs, shins. running is just boring. use up all this energy to get in shape i guess but with no reward like a cool downhill or some jumps. so running basically sucks and mt biking rules. went riding at saratoga gap later that day with mike and isaac. isaac started pinning it right from the start. we basically were the mt bikers that everyone hates. hauling ass down the trail and having way too much fun. running how lame. next time we are going to try and do some shuttling so we can get some more downhill riding time. hee hee.

coke again

machine is out of coke again! i had one earlier and it was so delicious. i really enjoyed drinking it. i am so bummed. now i am drinking some crappy pepsi. i stood in front of the machine trying to remember what was worse pepsi or dr. pepper. they both suck. i might have to put an emergency coke in the staff fridge. pepsi...sigh...

racing at sandhill

Went to Sandhill on Saturday and it was so hot over there. under a hundred but you know it was up there like 95 or so. Got there at 2 and found out race registration is from 3-5 so i just paid 10 bucks to practice and would pay the other 25 later to race. did a few runs on the slalom course and the mountain cross course and saw some guy i saw at shells the other week so i rode with him a little. saw Rich kicking back in the shade under his canopy so i took a seat and tried to cool off. basically i would ride for a few minutes and then sit under the canopy and take off my full face and elbow pads and drink water, gatorade or a coke. then do a few more runs until i get lightheaded and drink some more. wasn't sure if i was going to race or not at 4:30 pm because there weren't very many people there ( ended up being two guys in my class) and it was so hot. i went for another run on the slalom course and after the table/double my chain came off and got completely stuck. didn't crash but came close enough but i smushed my toe pretty good and then after a minute realized i had two cuts on the back of my calf from my pedal. that made the decision for me that i won't be racing. talked to some photographer dude from halfro.com for a bit and then rested in the shade for awhile and watched qualifying and then waited for too long until the races actually started. nothing exciting happened besides some basic crashes. left a little early so i wouldn't have mt bike drivers tailgating me on the way back to livermore since i drive the speed limit. spent the night at motel 6 in livermore and watched some boxing and in the morning watched soccer. yeah nothing at all was on tv. for some reason the weather channel there always shows east coast stuff instead of livermore or even the bay area. fixed my bike in the morning and got the towel with my blood on it all dirty. those motel 6 towels must take off a couple layers of skin they are so rough. damn they suck. went to san ramon bmx track on sunday. met mike there and we rode the track a little. it was super windy and pretty boring. about to leave when i decided to go down the long flight of stairs. super fun. really mellow and fast. so i called mike over and we went down again. and then we would bunny hop and see far down we could go. took some pictures of that too. had more fun on those stairs than on the track. those stairs rule. finally left and drove home. nothing to do at home so i got on my bontrager and cruised for 45 minutes around town going down all these streets i have never been on before or at least not in like 20 years. rode really slow and just enjoyed putting around on my bike. that's it and i am bored anyway.

you want it

You know you do.



You deserve it.



So go ahead. Buy the cross bike.




(just make sure it fits me.)

coke

I had a good reaction to the soda machine being out of coke. This just sucks. I got a damn dr. crappypepper. It took me 2 hours to finish this poison they call a soft drink.
