What did I just get myself into.

Oh shit, he called my bluff. I finally found a riding partner that is more insane than myself.
We did it, NP and I just sent in our registration for the Devil Mountain Double Century.

Dude is already talking about beating last years winning time. Well...maybe, but I just want to build some resistance. If we beat it, great, if we just have a great LOOOOOOONNNNGGGG day in the saddle, that's cool too.

Ah, I'm going for Podunk... anything with a TT is good for me. I think we're going to pull a car camper and sleep in some parking lot somewheres.

There is a decent Podunk RV park not far off the freeway.
Country Living RV Park
24833 Ave 16 Space 51
Madera, CA 93637
Tel: (559) 674-5343

We stayed there last year with the RV trailers. It's not plush, but they have hook ups and bathrooms with nice hot showers.

No bluffer, you. Simply insane dedication to the extreme end of the sport and now you have company. You & NP might as well reg for the Everest challenge too.

We are way ahead of you Dr. X.
When I told NP about Everest Challenge (I have done it twice, finished second on the second try) he got all giddy like a kid getting a new bike at Xmas.

You people have no idea! He loves to kick his own ass all over the place, and now he has found his dream date, partner in crime, someone as psyco as he is.

You have never seen giddy, untill you have seen Nome planning his own demise with someone wacky enough to go alog with him. Thanks NP you make my man so happy!

Whoa Chico, or we might just bluff each other into something silly like that! Maybe '07? Gonna start with cotemplation of Diamond Valley, 'specially if we get the call up from our Elites to do some work for them. Now that's sick, my dream is to domistique for the 1/2/3 squad of our geezer team.

I agree Dr. X - I'm already in a build-up phase for Diamond Valley.....just in case.
