Bummer




Our local club Cactus Cruzerx, hosted a pre trial short track at a course that is mostly used for motorcross. The owner of the track and club president worked out a spot for us to host a short track series or cyclocross. So we headed out for some fun with the aprox. 15 club members, was good to see jack back in town. First pre-ride was a 15min time stage pretty fun if you paced it. Second decision was to do a two man relay. And we're off, it was a mass start which went pretty good until i bonked (literaly). Rumor has it i was going to fast and caught some air landing me about 15ft away from my launch and the landing did not go too good but don't recall anyway how this all took place. Don't remeber the ride on the ambulance or trying to hook up with the blonde medic (yes she was female) which didn't help that my gf came along for the ride on the ambulance. LOL :) Was release from hospital with no broken bones but some pretty sore ribs, bruised up shoulder and more pain to my ego, oh wait the meds got me feeling pretty darn good. In all this was a fun course that yes I would do all over again just with alot more caution. Till next time keep the cranks turning and by all means keep the rubber side down.
