Rain + Beaumont = Ditch Work!

Posted by: Cropley | Tuesday, November 28, 2006 11 comments
Our boy Slarf got the only riding photo of the day on a step up by where we parked! Blowin' up!
Trigg's clapped out ride was lovin' the chocolate cake!

When I heard the weather forecast on Sunday I thought there might be a chance... when I saw the rain falling Monday I knew the dirt would be good... when I sent out a text message to 20 people on Monday night about an early morning Beaumont session and only about 6 of them said "hell yeah!", well, I knew everyone else was pussin' out and we were still charging it! It was on!

Trigger Gumm, Cameron Steele, Fluffer, Ox, Ian Mac (etnies designer), Slarf (San Clemente bike mechanic master), and me (etnies web guy) were the only ones with nuts enough to ditch work and session the hills. It was well worth it...the dirt was perfect!!!! (Actually, Ian and I are the only ones with real jobs...hope we're not fired!)

It's not often you get dirt this good, so we left the jumps alone for another day. Today it was all about the hill and cliff climbs! I think Fluffer and Trigger made about $20 betting against Ox and Cameron if they could make it up a couple different hill climbs! All I can say is I'm so pumped I just picked up a new CRF450 for all the Beaumont trips soon to come! Next time, when it's all green and perfect, we'll get the whole crew out there and get some sick riding photos! Promise.

    That's not right? Truth is that Trigger got whopped by PAB on the hill climbs! It may be time for the $500 hill climb session. Party ride session next time it rains, even better than the Crazy Horse!
