Leading up to the weekend

Well I took the day off Friday for my birthday and to get some stuff accomplished for once that didn't involve a bike event, sorta. First I went to the elkhorn dmv, somewhere I missed a turned and ended up in the dmv in mexico. Don't get me wrong there is nothing wrong with being a person of color but when 4 of the 5 lines are dedicated for bi lingual helpers in elkorn wi. Something wasn't adding up. Then back home and time to clean up the basement. I was amazing how much crap I had saved. For example, I don't have one mt bike in the house that has tubes, but I had at least 20 used tubes; thrown out. I had 3 broken seat post: thrown out. Then I went through all the old tires: throw out 12 or so old tires. What else, old pedals, spokes shift and brake housing, and one old seat. Then I got the junk box were old bike stuff gets lost. I ended up get rid of a ton of old waterbottles, had to be at least 30. Then I dug out a bunch of old socks a old hydration bladder and a moldy jersey all in the trash. So the workshop is clean again, sorta. Then it was time to go shopping for food and beer, after 4 cases of beer and 20 or so bags of snacks we were ready to go. So then we headed up to the bike shop, Pedal Moraine and returned the broken fuel for replacement again. Then we stopped in the new cabals One word holy crap Yogi they got everything. Hit applebees on the way home and eat some grub. Headed home and went to bed. Woke up saturday, packed up the camper and took to my parents for the winter. Came home and set up the house for the quest for my party. First guest arrived at 5 pm and the other 50 came shortly after. I want to thank everyone for coming, even got some fatty snacks to stay in clyde comp from Russell and Coop. Bubba and Jay brought out the kids and enjoyed little fire. Dan Kutz made sure no one was cold around the fire. I ended up stay up till 2:30 am and burned all the wood and drank all the lakefront brew. Sunday woke up and steam cleaned the rugs and just laid very low.

I can't believe the season is over already! Wish I could have closed off on a good note in Sheboygan.

Nice work this year and have a good BMX season!
