Going to be a short backblast – if you wanted to know about it you should’ve shown up 🙂  With the convergence coming up, Red Roof and I wanted to work in some of the old workouts along with every hill we possibly could.

Pretty soggy out there. So soggy, I’ll need to do something different than what I planned. I really wanted to use the half pipe, but I don’t want to risk a turned ankle or having someone sink to their death. So, I guess I’ll really have to concentrate to come up with something. So far,ContinueContinue reading “2/24 Ruiner Preblast @OF3Louisville. Bring an umbrella for your tears… and the rain. Mostly tears. #syitg”
