Today was the last day of 6 days in a row riding. I'm whipped. The good kind of sore. Went out to Ipswitch on the 9er SS (34x15) to do an easy recovery ride. Ipswitch is coming around great. The "x-country" trails are getting ridden in, but could still use more traffic. A memorandom of understanding is in the works between the EVMA and the City of Chesepeake, which will give us the go ahead for clean some things up, make some signs, and maybe even build some bridges. The City will be sending out a crew to take down the huge tree still left from Isabel.




While out there I ran into Captain Caveman with his dog Sprocket and another friend huckin' the jumps.








Sprocket runs along side while Adam hits the jumps and he always stays out of the way. The dog has even gone on 20 mile trail runs with Adam as he rides. Sprocket drinks Gatorade out of a Camelback to stay on top of fueling and hydration. More jumpin' pics here.




Then it was down the road a few miles to check out the 2nd "Snowball" Crit. Snowball HAH! Temps in the middle 70s! Caught the Cat C, Cat B, and the beginning of the Cat A. K-Dog got a third (2nd in the group sprint). Nice work. Crit pictures here.

<----Harlan, Crazy and Art at the front.

Hope you all got a chance to get a good

RideOn
