Bootleg: Screamin Santa Double Down

Moments before disaster.....

Home safely from Boulder City where I checked out the Screamin Santa SuperD and DH races this past weekend. I clipped a pedal going mach speed in the first SuperD race run and thrashed my leg and lost my glasses - I finished last in Pro and opted out of the second course. Pretty much fully scabbed my lower left leg and charlie-horsed my thigh, but I'll survive! The crash didn't sit well with me (and I preferred not to drop another $50) so just watched the DH on Sunday. I did manage to get in a few runs on the Endorphin and V-Tach and both were as fun as ever! Despite the bad luck it wa still a fun weekend in the sun...as we speak it is snowing AGAIN here in Fruita. Bah humbug!

Big ole' white flakes...

Its snowing like mad here, nearly as much white stuff as I've ever seen in Fruita. I've already been off the bike for two weeks due to Thanksgiving and the subsequent flu-like virus from hell. Finally feeling better and then this happens! I'm dying to ride my bike, may have to drive to Vegas and do the Bootleg Race the weekend before Christmas. Shame its so far, but I'd walk 500 miles to ride my bike at this point.

Oh yeah, I did this video awhile ago for MRP. I don't think I ever posted it, so here ya go.
