Yeah thanks to everyone who showed up, it was a great time. I was trying to count up the bikes in my head and I came up to just over 40. Except for the one casualty of necessaryevil going over the handlebars during the fastest drags everything went pretty smooth. The slow drags was the funniest thing I think I've ever seen.

 

[GTCOMA]

That was a great time! And what a great turn out.

Some dragracing action

I wish someone would have got my wreck on tape, it must have been good because I'm in terrible pain. The price you pay for racing :x

Looks like it was a fun time. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Clever idea for the skid trophy.

 

[gcbike]

well the wife just scored her a 70 schwinn stardust (and me a winter project) for the next ride.

Well, I certainly had a good time despite the temps and a near tragic accident! I hope both bike and rider are feelin' better today.
The park has a good layout, and the "track" was the perfect length with just enough hill to make it interesting.
It was good to meet some of the faces behind the typed words and it was a pleasure to be there.

Oh, yea, then there was all the cool bikes.

Thanks for the food, it solved some serious logistic problems.

Thanks also go out to GTCOMA for the monster sprocket, it's at it's new home now.
Bike finally pedals the way I want now.

Check out the cool reflection on the driveway!

 

[GTCOMA]

That is AWESOME!

A handy hint for next time: Riding a unicycle has done wonders for my slow-riding abilities. I can't sit still, but can come pretty close to it.

Hey!, it looks like I lost!

That should have had a video "review". It's also my first entry onto Youtube, now I'm immortalized for all eternity,
or until the Internet implodes. Who knows?, maybe it'll be the next sneezing panda.

Funny stuff.

 

[Firewalker]

now that looked like a great time!

what is the story on this bike?

oh by the way...I can see why you lost the drag race!

[GTCOMA]

That is a Specialized Fatboy. It is Gcbike's. It is very nice!

 

[gcbike]

and it's for sale still.or trade joker, i know a fellow rat rodder in your town, goes by one adam twelve over on the schwinn forum

 

[willyschad]

that's ok joker63, there's no way i would have beat travis anyway. Looked like he's been training for the slow drags for a while.
