1,400 dollars was the value of the Grand Prize 2007 Corsa World Cup
800ft of challenging climbs -- something for everyone no matter what your skill
83 racers took to the valley
40 is the number of years I have been on this earth
40 bucks was the price of a life times of great memories
34 teeth on my front chain ring... the smallest I have ever pushed
32-minutes for my fasted lap and 2-minutes more then the winner.
30-minutes of running trails with a broken chain.
20 tooth cog on an American classic single speed hub
16-minutes trying to beg-borrow-or-steal a spare tube and fix a stupid flat
15 lbs of superfly race bike that was not so super and didn’t really fly
14 bottles of water in 8-hours
13-hours of driving for the best race of the year
13 the number of laps I was capable of riding but didn’t!
12 the number of laps I wanted to do, but didn’t!
11 laps of repeatedly putting my chain back on… grrrrr!
10 registered single speeders that never bothered to show up. SLACKERS!
9.75 km of awesome trail
9 kudus go out to the hard working volunteers who put this shindig together!
8 Manitobans throwing it down!
8 isssss the number of hours I raced! Back at ya J ;)
7-hours of blaring tunes on the pod… thank God for ipods!
5-minutes of rain
4th place overall, and 11 laps of frustration, puttering, and running
4 very nasty crashes… all mine
3 provinces having it out… actually one province mopping up the floor with two others.
3 dead goats seriously kicking my butt… maybe that gives them the right to talk smack… not!
2-minute bonus (i.e., -2 minutes) for winning the prime, fat lot of good that did me.
2 times busting a nut at xc8, and definitely in for one more!
2 Awesome days at Buffalo Pound!
2 torn and bloody knees… both mine
2 is the number of times I was lapped by papa goat Single Speed Psycho Pat Doyle. Ride on dude!
2 other dead goats talking smack… wtf… not so friendly Alberta!
1 papa goat was cool with legs of steel
1.7 gear ratio… ridiculous!
