Dance parties and fixed gears

I wear skinny jeans and slip on vans, I dye my hair black, I drink PBR, and I went to a dance party and an alleycat race all in one weekend. I've got to be the trendiest kid alive right now. Friday after work I headed to the normal place, 1021 and hung out and got warmed up for the dance party. Bob, Justin and I headed to the dance party. I dont remember much other than wanting to go home kind of early because I had to work Saturday. But I'm assuming KGTD was a good time as it always is. Saturday Jonathan let me off early so I could make it to Deuces Wild alleycat. The brocycle guys did a great job putting this race on, fun atomsphere, good long race. I had a great time. Thanks to these guys for welcoming me into the group and providing such a fun event. It was super cold, I was not prepared for that. The race ended up being like 20 miles, I was not prepared for that. Basically, I just wasn't prepared. I had no idea where 3 of the stops were so I followed a guy named Aaron I met at the gathering before the race for most of the route. Thanks to him for showing me the route. I think I got done in about an hour 25 or so. I ended up with 6th overall which im pretty happy with. Tho I'm gonna count it as 3rd because a few of the guys in front of me were on geared bikes and that's cheating. haha. After the race I hung out at the afterparty for a bit at the warehouse, I believe the guy allowing us to use it was David, I hope I got that right but thanks to him for letting that happen. I left the afterparty a little early tho to go hang out with my normal crew. We had the same good ole time at 1021 we always do. Sunday, Josh, Jonathan and myself went to the mall and just drove around aimlessly for a bit then I went and rode around with Braxton, Terry, and Chad for a bit. That was pretty fun, I'm looking forward to riding with these guys every week now. Overall it was a pretty eventfull and very fun weekend. I gotta go Wii Bowl. Peace.

Deuces Wild

I hope I can make this, you should too.

Halloween/Locals

Friday started out nice, dug in Walt's backyard for a bit trying to get his trails going. Got a little bit of riding done, those things are gonna be technical. After that Josh and I headed to Maggie's house to get ready for Halloween night. We played Wii bowling for a couple hours while the girls got ready and whatnot. We headed to Robert's to hang out for a while and then headed to a dance party at Mathew's. Maggie, Josh, Sarah and I headed home pretty early, I think about 1am or so. A very fun Halloween this year.

Saturday morning Josh and I woke up and headed to Oak Mtn. about 11 so that I could give Dale Duke his first lesson. He did pretty well and I look forward to working with him in the future and having him on the team. After practice started we were able to talk about 6 people into racing an open with us. Motos were no big deal, just havin fun. Main came and Josh, Brantley and myself were lined up next to eachother, I think Brantley got to the first turn first by a tire but Josh went under him and I highlowed and came around both of them at mach10. Josh pushed me to the inside of the track so I came into turn 2 wayyyyy too low and wayyyyyy too fast, I thought I was pushing Josh up with me, but he brake checked and highlowed under me. I was at a dead stop at the top of the turn so I didn't have the momentum to go real fast. I did the best I could to catch Josh but just didn't have the mmmph after that 2nd turn. It made for an exciting race tho.
After the race me and Josh met Mags at 2pesos for some much needed mexican food. It was delectable. That night we hung out at Roberts for a bit, then came back to Maggie's and just sat around with a few friends and talked for a while.

Sunday, Josh and I chose to go to Prattville for another local instead of Tuscaloosa for the cross race. That turned out to be a bad choice because my shoulder was killing me after working out earlier this week and riding for a couple days. And the gate broke during practice, I flipped it and bruised my hip. When race time came we were doing flag starts, haha, BOGUS. But ya gotta do what ya gotta do I guess.. haha. We had another small open and in the main I went under Josh in the first turn... slid out in the second turn, I put my foot down and my chain came off, I raced the rest of the race just pumping. Josh, Billy and I all had a good time I suppose so no big deal.
We had been craving CiCi's pizza since like 10 that morning so we stopped there and gourged for like an hour or so before heading home. I was worn out when I made it back and passed out about 9 oclock. A very long eventful weekend.

Now I've got to rest up for a few days and hope my shoulder gets better so I can get back in the gym and riding my bike again by Wednesday.
