VDFT3 Report

The MacAskill of Cheesecake

The trails were almost as good as the dessert. Cap led nocar and me on a fine ride that of course had a cold dose of paved downhill right out of the gate.  We had hot peppered fries, some top shelf heat, the usual cans of riding fluid, a touch of rye, and some pretty good pie.  Happy Birthday Fro, you are only 20 in hair years.

Fat Tuesday is fast approaching.

Rad

Well, I couldn't resist posting this for you guys to enjoy.  May it be or not be the call out, really doesn't matter.  Here he is again, doing what many FT3ers wish they could.

Remember when we all tried just getting on and off a picnic table?

Enjoy.  This is Malcolm's new favorite movie, and mine too.

Great song, awesome riding, great scenery - it's what it's all about.  I wonder how many bikes it takes to make a movie like this?

If this is the call out, then I hate to say it, OUT.

Flooded

The snow was soft at the Pollywood resort last week. Having each member of the pack in their own gear brought an unprecedented level of performance, and we cruised up the climbs and hooted down the descents. Strong man "No Skins" Unknown Local was the picture of grace in his scale-less, skin-less AT gear.


And the Knott was very happy to see us before 10:30. So, happy they handed out three aces and a service beer.

This week will be a completely different story.


Looks like we'll get a little under half an inch during ride time. But, with the temperature a steady 46F, the arctic wetsuit won't be necessary.
