Yep. He covered almost 55 miles of single track in a little over 6 hours.

Thanks guys (and chick). I've decided that I'm going to retire from mountain bike racing though. It's hard. Although it may be a retirement like Jay Z's. =) I really must say that I've got new respect for all you idiots that do endurance type events. I started seeing phantom riders on the course about half way through my fourth lap.

What puzzles me is shy is Silly spending her time congratulating me on winning second instead of bragging about HOW SHE WON FIRST PLACE in the womens division?? Good job girl!!

Congratulations to both of you.

Did Barbie give up on math because math is hard? Come on! Man it up! Those phantom riders were just egging you on.
