8:00am, beside the Hall of Justice. gixersin (Sinh), explaining to us the details of the trip. "If you want to turn back, this is the time to do it!" He was not kidding folks!

mrtnz · 08-17-2002, 03:30 AM

Deck and Scott enjoying Thunderhill. Watching fellow BARFers doing a session.

Scott: "Damn! I wish it was me out there doing track!"

mrtnz · 08-17-2002, 03:44 AM

That's Turn 5. Can't you see them? That's Wicked, Yoda, ambitiousone and Mstingray on the track!

mrtnz · 08-17-2002, 03:47 AM

OUCH! That's 2slow's (Eddie) bike. He crashed on the track. I hope you're feeling better 2slow!

mrtnz · 08-17-2002, 03:49 AM

On the road again. Deck and Frag left us by then. Deck had to go to Sacramento. Frag was already tired and felt he had enough.

We're at the beginning of M-10 otherwise know as HELL! That "Trail Bike Xing" sign should have been enough warning for us. But no! We kept going! TEAM HARDCORE!

mrtnz · 08-17-2002, 03:51 AM

Those are not hiking trails, folks. Those are roads! We did all that!

mrtnz · 08-17-2002, 03:55 AM

Taking a quick break and enjoying the view. Sinh, Scott and Sean. Aren't they cute!?!

mrtnz · 08-17-2002, 04:00 AM

Paved road ends! We're were all amused and laughing at how dusty and gravelly the road was. Sean told me I can tell everyone I made him and Scott eat my dust!

mrtnz · 08-17-2002, 04:02 AM

Sinh, Scott and me. Aawww... We look so happy! That's gonna change soon!
