Well I found L & Leia running and then stumbled upon Martin out weed wacking at Tranquility last Thursday. The re-route will be nice once the groove is worn in...the only hick-up is that bowed tree in the first section when you take that uber-tight right-hander.
The lost part is CJAMZ...has anybody seen or heard from the man, where did he go? Please if you see or hear from him pass on the clues to his where-abouts!

19th Year...The Best So Far!
Well I'm back from the River City Round Up West Trail Ride.
Day 1 - Gothenburg - The canyons were awesome, the food was killer...thanks again to John & Lawrence for letting us ride your beautiful ranch land.
Day 2 - Callaway - The Seven Valleys of Callaway are always beautiful and I am glad we got to ride them this year.
Day 3 - Merna/Broken Bow - The ride was good but the Bloody Mary's in Merna were not!
Day 4 - Ashton/St. Paul - The homemade pastries in Ashton were delicious...you know those ladies get up at 4a.m. to make all of those sweet goodies. The river ride on the Rest Ranch was superb along with the tasty fresh fried catfish lunch we had. It is just too bad Michelle's horse decided to lay down in the mucky riverside pond.
Day 5 - David City - The gulleys were a bit hairy, but everybody made it into DC for the big party. Jen & I were able to polish off nearly three Stripper's In A Bottle this year...thank goodness for Tylenol and Pepcid AC!
Day 6 - Czech Lake/Malmo - It was a good recovery ride...I missed the first shuttle van, which was a darn shame since I didn't have to ride the first 4 miles. Gizzards were enjoyed at lunch time...Keith really knows how to make 'em!
Day 7 - Mead/Pancake Feed - It was a long ride from Malmo to Mead but the 50+ of us made it in record time to see Marilyn & The Pancake Man...some headed home, others made their way to Freedom Park...this cowboy headed home, no Saturday morning parade for me. Those damn Shriner Clown's just scare me too much.
The 4 hooved bike is back in his pasture and I was glad to see my big wheel'd steed in the garage when I got home...the wife was good to see also after a week of father & son time where I slept in a horse trailer near my father who snores like a chain saw.
Some pictures to follow...

OLIVER ASKS THAT YOU ADOPT HIS FRIENDS!
Are you looking for a companion to greet you when you get home after a long bike ride? Would you like to have a pet that will love you no matter how good of a bike rider you are? I know this isn’t normal content but this is a cause I feel strongly about…finding good homes for deserving animals.Everybody has heard of the Nebraska Humane Society, but there are some other lesser known organizations out there that need your help in adopting some really great dogs. Click HERE to view adoptable dogs from the Jack Russell Terrier Rescue of Omaha. If you are looking for a wide variety of dogs and other pets that need someone to love them click HERE. The Town & Country Humane Society is a non-profit, no kill shelter that needs your help too!
The JRT Rescue and TCHS are located at the same place…just head South on 84th Street from Highway 370, a few miles down the road you will see the sign on the right side of the road.
Adopt a your new family member today so I can sleep easier!

The XTREME 100 ROCKED!!!
I may have only done the Metric Version of the Xtreme 100 but it was still the best ride of the season. The route was hilly and super challenging! After all is said and done it was a great achievement. The 67 up, up, up, down miles formulated my furthest/hardest ride to date. It was great to have the peace of mind with 29erfan sag'n me the whole second half. Thanks again to all sponsors who donated, CJAMZ for all of his hard work, and thanks for sure to BLUEIF for more than just offering to let me grab onto the mirror of the sag truck. I almost took him up on his offer but I wasn't going to tarnish my ride by taking a mech assist. I can't wait till next year!
And remember, if it isn't a Hi Fi it better have big wheels...they just roll faster.
