(One has to stop and wonder tho: How many times have you had to waste 2-3 minutes answering that same question?? Hmmmm, it seems that I just destroyed the crux of my argument! I think I'll stop now while I'm far, far behind!)

Steve's got a pretty good one, but I'll let him tell it.
I got down there before most and ran both the Dragon and Cherohala in the rain, which was scary and awesome. But all the fun happens when people start filing in. Our group parties at Cabin 660. Drinks, food, fun. People like Lou Fusz and daisuke149 are awesome folks to hang around and joke with. We'd get up early for runs, come back, just hang around and joke on each other all day. You get to see awesome Z's and G's of every generation. And you get fun stories like a guy walking up hill with two gopro's on a helmet (one facing front, one back), making engine noises. Our buddy Steve F brought a giant megaphone, which got used as more alcohol entered his bloodstream, and made for great times. Red__Zed showed up, nearly died, then came and hung out with me. Many other similar stories. Oh, and my mother treated a biker and his passenger for injuries sustained dropping their cruiser on the dragon, while I went back to the previous blind corner and flagged traffic to slow down until the cops showed up. |

Off topic, but these are images of the eclipse tonight as the light passed through our trees.

Lets just say I found the limits of the PSS on pavement, and subsequently discovered that they grip pretty well in the grass and on the edges of cliffs. I also reaffirmed that, despite the initial f*ck up, I'm a pretty good driver to recover from that ****.
Lesson learned for next year: the car is f*cking fast as hell... but not THAT fast. Slow down.
