    Cool vids of the later tests, thanks for posting them up.

    Just missed the last check on the second loop. Was bummed my day was over BUT I am thankful for the 45+ miles of butter single track that me and my friends enjoyed starting on minute 12 and 13.

    0 for 1 on the Los Anciacos Enduro's but I will be back for the next one and will continue to race in the hare scrambles every year until the next Enduro.

    My buddy emailed us all a pic from the Enduro of all of his line mates draped over their bikes looking really tattered. He added the caption "Thrill of Victory Agony of Defeat".

    One of the other riders on my who houred out at the same check as me 10 minutes later responded with a great quote from Theodore Roosevelt:

    "Remember it is not the critic who counts, but rather the man who actually steps in the arena and fights - and even if he takes an ass kicking time and time again he will never be with the timid souls who neither know the thrill of victory or defeat"

    too much of a bike beater with lack of forward motion for my taste. You will be our representative for that one!!

    Yes we do! You were the first person I thought of when HusqRacr posted. Robertaccio is right…save the politeness for the trail ride. Meaning, the next time we go on a trail ride and I eat it, you've still gotta pick me up.:D

    Robert you are funny KOM is really not that hard It is nothing you have not rode before. What it is. Is a a lot of hard all day long. As for a bike beater I have rode the same bike for 2 years there Plus many time out there riding the same trails with out breaking anything. You will never know until you try. I wish I could do Tecate again it is one of the best. But for now I just will not cross the border. So the closes thing to a Tecate event is KOM and LDS
    The Nationals are also fun. I am going to try a few of the Western Hare Scrambles to, they also look like fun.
    Wait a second you just got you bike all dialed in with the Zip Ty touch So any trail is easy now

    Stats, 9th SSEN/50+ open,
    65th OA
    from 276 starters,
    only 86 finishers .
    I am more than happy, even among finishers friend Reed (63 OA) and I beat some faster than us guys. As for Reed and myself he consistently beats me when we race, but check this out last years HS we were within a minute or 2 in total time, for this enduro in the same minute ie seconds in time separated us, fun stuff.
    US State wise,
    Jake did great as well (he can post his stuff)
    PNW represented big time, I'll let the PNW crew post up.
    Also Colorado really kicked butt in all classes!!
    Mexico of course was also well represented with P2 and P3 spots!!.
