Jim men...Of course, that makes more sense Pascal! <br /><br />Jim mentioned that he turned himself inside out into and out of the woods and you were the only one who could hang on. Awesome! Jim has some serious power; I could tell you both put it all into the finish. Looking forward to seeing Jim in green as soon as the new kit arrives.Matt Surchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04244780566118768642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9001519296846134184.post-55879223847486408552010-04-27T15:17:52.822-04:002010-04-27T15:17:52.822-04:00Correction, it's "Smoking Guns", pl...Correction, it's "Smoking Guns", plural. <br /><br />Great ride, great race.<br />My thanks to Officer BMX Jim for marshaling me out of the woods for the final hammer.Pasciihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16974673924952791873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9001519296846134184.post-35862397287285999962010-04-27T15:07:17.658-04:002010-04-27T15:07:17.658-04:00Second time writing this for one post: Oh.

I'd rather get lost any day...<br /><br />I suspect you were not terribly happy about your position, but I suspect a bit more mtb riding to tune up will help a lot for the next round. The southern Ontario folks get a bit of a jump on the trails. I'm certain your base will serve you well. I look forward to chasing you in Tremblant!Matt Surchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04244780566118768642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9001519296846134184.post-1876891161128676442010-04-27T14:54:31.703-04:002010-04-27T14:54:31.703-04:00Well done Matt!

I was 4th -- 45seconds down. The most dramatic part was waking up to a domestic dispute of some kind in the room across the hall in the hotel Sunday morning. Shortly after the yelling stopped about a dozen cops showed up followed by a forensic investigation truck and eventually the undertaker wheeling away a body on a stretcher!
