Hahha! I crept throught the creek crossing worried about the water. When I see my creek crossing photo it will probably look like I'm standing still. :wink:

Looking at the times, I think I got 11th so I'm pretty happy about that.



Not too shabby! Looked like you were riding your new bike.

You weren't as bad as most of the riders at the creek crossing.

I had the same "Hey, I know that name...I know that guy!" moment too. Congrats Matt. Looks like a fun race.

Thanks guys.. Funny how quotes in small papers often get a little modified but she was super nice and I really don't know how she could feel the sensation in her fingers to even jot down a few of our murmurs before and after the punishment. :lol:
