Marysville Weekend
July 2006

The Marysville Race festival weekend was the first weekend of July this summer. Craig and I went up early Friday to get a good camping spot for the team. 


The spot turned out great. It was big enough for all of us and far enough away from everyone else. We had this cool kitchen/hang out area in
the front. 


And this cool camping pasture out back.


My two-niner slumming with two Seven two-niners. This picture was taken Saturday morning after the night time trial the night before. There was one section that was particularly muddy.  


Oh look! Another Seven two-niner or should I say another $5000 single speed.


 
Ben decided to do the six hour endurance race. I think this was around hour two of the event. He ended up fourth. He and the fifth place guy
rode the last half of the race together helping each other along. On the last lap they decided who'd cross the finish line first with a quick game
of "Rock, Paper, Sissors." Ben won with a rock.


Here's Topher stickering his bike.  He's been working out the kinks for a couple of months now. The logos (as most of the bike) came out
really well. And yes, it's another two-niner single speed.



Here's an after shot of Topher's bike. Unfortunately you can't quite see the stickers.


I had a bit of a problem in the first half mile of my race. My pedal came apart on me (a common problem for Crank Brothers pedals). Luckily I
was close enough to our camp to run back and throw another pedal on my bike and keep racing. I finished in the middle of my class. Can't
imagine how well I would have done without the mechanical.
