We're online!

After a month AT&T came through and we now have blazing fast DSL. Actually, a few months ago we tried to get service with them and the sales guys told me it wouldn’t be fast enough for us and we would be disappointed.

Basically expect more blogging from this guy. And more editing. I posted a little rant last night that I just removed. I was in a bad mood, but now I am happy drinking coffee and watching the tour de france.

Whenever I am in a bad mood the trails always change me around. The current trail spot is my happy place. It is the most fun thing to ride. It is so fulfilling because we have built it all. Myself, Tfred, Dave, Derek and Alex plus another handful of part-timers (*Alex should probably be on the part-timer list instead). 

It is an understatement to say it has been a lot of work. Hours upon hours have been put in out there. You just can’t know unless you have worked on trails before. It can be stressful at times. Sometimes we don’t agree and sometimes we are really big dicks to each other. That is kind of what makes it too. Everybody out there is pretty salty to say the least. I think we all usually think we are right and our plan is the best. Believe me this is a problem when there are 3 different ideas and no one wants to stand down. Eventually we usually come close to the same page. Right now we are having a small  hiccup in our big s-berm that is going to take a bit of collaboration and modification to fix. There might be some arguing in there too. I am lucky to have such good friends that we can be totally honest with each each. And honestly, I am probably going to be right about how this berm should be reshaped.
