It had nothing to do with your hard work, dedication, and focus put forth. Don't give yourself any kind of credit. I mean, really. You are right, you knew the trail.

Hope your shoulder isn't too sore this weekend. There has to be some kind of resistance training routine you can do to strengthen up the musculature around that shoulder so it stops doing that. Good luck at Leadville. Your Leadville race reports are some of my favorite of your posts. Can't wait to read race report 2010. Congrats on the 4th; bummer on the wreck.

If they only had a "clydesdale single speed" class I would rule. I am a member of Team CarboRocket and am looking for some advice re: fundraising for my team purpose. If you click on my name above it will take you to the team website and then click my name and look in the comments section. Thanks so much for your support!

I'm glad you enjoyed passing me (the old Gary Fisher) on the climb up Hog Hollow. I had the same satisfaction passing you on the downhill, until I found out later that you had crashed, I thought it was my superior downhill skills (or you were just slow) that got me back in front of you.
