A huge thanks to Shawn and Rich for showing me the ropes today. I had a great time and really look forward to eventually be able to race with you.

I bailed too early; rode a lap just before 5pm, and the front blew in while I was doing it.  Rather than stick around and have to ride home in a downpour, I headed home.  Sadly, the downpour never came and I missed out on practice.

My first FoPo CX practice this year, but Rich the course was awesome. Even better in reverse. It was nice to get some hot laps in and then the second set of hot laps was a bonus.

Good times. I guess we've been doing this about 6 or 8 years now.  You might be the only guy left who remembers the old World's Fair pavilion site.  oh, wait- I think Chris Cleeland remembers it too, but not fondly.

WFP were some great sessions! The downhill at Rock Springs/Alton reminded me of the big downhill with the mid-way jump at that site.  That one massive downed tree for a dismount obstacle was a memorable night.

Rich, I thought the Worlds Fair Pavilion wad awesome. When we moved, I hated it the first year. But you're right. Now 5+ years into it; trails burned in; it's fantastic.
