Practice photo

Post by Trudy »

I'm just checking to make sure I know how to upload a picture so I can send some pictures from the ISDE. I imagine I will be able to have access to the internet somewhere. Anyway this is a pic from this past spring when we went and did an old harescramble loop at fallen timber. This area was called razorback due to all the jagged rocks and cliffs. Terry got a little to close to the cliff and went for a short flight. You remember hey Dirtboy..... I don't think Terry remembers too much from that day.

I'd say you have the photo thing down. I'm looking forward to seeing the ISDE pics! :banana: :banana:

I was pretty shocked to see the picture. I didn't even know that there was a camera out there? Did you take the picture?

Yes I took the picture. I should have been helping push but those candid shots are usually the best.

Hey Dude,

I've only ridden that loop once (I'm one of the guys in the picture) and I can remember lot's of the names but couldn't get back there without my GPS.

Some of the the names:

Razorback
Calloway Park
Betty Big Bush
Razorback's A**

Hmmmm. My memory isn't as good as I think it is. :cripple: I guess I can only remember a couple. :crazy:

Any others we should look for.

Hi All,

Well us girls just got to Slovakia last night. We decided to spend the week in Vienna instead of sitting around watching the guys set up their bikes. They had sign in this morning and then the bikes were impounded until race day.

The officials actually have a sound check that all the riders have to pass. The rules here are just ridiculous. When the riders come into their checks we can,t even hold their bikes for them if theý need to do something. I guess there is about 400 racers.

I have nt figured out how to upload pictures yet and there is a bit of a language barrier with the people working here so once I can do that I ll send some pics.
