Charlotte Winter Short Track Series Race #2

More rain, more pain and a completely nasty drive train...hahahahahahahahhahahahaha. As an avid blogger I find it much easier to forgo all that is attached with actually participating in a local race and spend that time documenting it for people to see. My stance is sort of like spectating with a twist. The twist is that through my eyes, physical body placement and thoughts I can convey to whoever has the time to look at what was happening with humans, mud and spirit. The entire 80 frame set can be seen by clicking here. I highly recommend watching the set as a slide show which is actuated by a button on top of the set, you will see it. Have them roll at 6 or 7 second interval, kick back with some Sigur Ros(Sugar Rose from Iceland) on the Pandora dot come and check out the transfer. Here are a few highlights from yesterday's local Mountain Mud Bike Event:

Zoo, Mein Volk needs a T-shirt that reads: SAVE YOUR BREATH, I KNOW I AM A BEAUTIFUL DOG!!
Bart in fine form.

Stephen Dyckes out having a ball in the wet woods!

Eric Hagerty on his new bike, more about this guy to follow on the morrow.

Stephen and his daughter Isabelle right before the start of her race. Way to go dad and daughter, pretty damn brilliant!!

The Single Speed category had a chance to play bike Ring around the Rosy led by Ross Dowswell right before their start.

Look at the smile on this guy's face, he just realized that his front brake pads are completely destroyed.
