Well I raced my first XC race it’s was the AWRCS in boyers PA.
And I have to say I am out of shape, this race kicked my but!!!! I will have to hit the gym for the start of next years season!

I was doing ok the fist lap and a half then I stoved my arm and got arm pump and could not hang on to the bars. So I rode through the jumps instead of powering through them with made it worse it think. On the last lap I got stuck for like 10 -15 minutes until some one helped me out so I did not place very good!

But it was fun!

Here are some pixs!

That was the only spot that was real wet. Now that I think about it I should have slowed down a little!!!!
I just put electrical tape on it so it would not get messed up!!

I only used the gogles for like 10min I got to a bottle neck and they foged up so i took them down then i hit the cheek and got the insides wet! live and learn!!!!

I have a Gibson rebuildable steering stabilizer on it.
The only exsersize i get is walking up and down a flight of stars every 45 minutes at work to smoke!! And I ride once a week for a couple of hours.
