Wow, your mom got some really good pictures! I didn't think I was going to have any proof of the conditions that we rode in! As for your joke, I almost wish I'd have brought floaties, I might have been able to float acrossed the creek and finished the rest of the ride!

Well, it is 5 weeks till the cross country race in New York, and the next enduro ride is in September. Anyone planning these two rides? I am already anxious, and MY bike is being repaired almost as we speak. I really owe Gary Ellis a lot! This weekend would not have even happened without him!

Congratulations for starting, and FINISHING, such a grueling event Ambr.  I'm sure that "I can do this!" trait is something that will stand you in good stead throughout your life, especially in the next few years! <grin>

Thanks for the report, Ernie.  

Sounds like a good way to ruin a nice old bike to me.  Or perhaps to lose one like Roger Paris.  Perhaps sometimes vacation time and plane reservations should be less important than rider safety and a good fair event with more ideal circumstances?  This weather was easy to see coming and even a amatuer meterologist could see it was not going to change and the outcome was forseeable.

Sounds like you had some enjoyment though; Ernie, and that is a good thing.

The course was good ridable if it was not for the high water river.
This trails are swollowing a lot of water but have a hard underground.
I had some trouble with a sticking carbslide und with one rivercrossing but otherwise I think it was a great expirience.
Even a Black Beauty did it.
Enough said.

A great THANK YOU to the 2 members woh sah me swimming downstream and jumped into the river to pull me back to dry land.Thank you guys.
