Rod Parker, aka, Rob Porter, hitin a nice shot through the trees, man I love golfin with ole Rod, but after a few beers he turns into Rob for me. oh well, he's nice enough to always forgive my brain malfunctions

2004-09-08T11:35:00.000-07:00

dude, why are you walkin this,

2004-09-08T11:15:00.000-07:00

Chad and his new shades,

2004-09-08T11:01:00.000-07:00

I really wanted to start a golf blog, just so I could keep up with all the shit talk about me golfin.
but it totaly locked up this bad boy, so it had to go.
ah well, it was for a joke anyway.

oh well. fuck it.
I'll just have to talk about what ol cvo does here.

sooner or later someone will probably complain that I talk about bartending here.

And damn, last night was the shit.
I got hit on soooo much, there were at least 3 chicks that I could have hooked up with. I never really pay any attention to girls or guys who hit on me at the bar (I try to work it a little for the tip but that's as far as it ever goes, and I tell my wife everything. She incourages me to be a flirt. it helps out with how much money she gets at the end of the night.
I've been in the bartending buisness for nearly 10 years now, and I've never hooked up with anyone other than my wife (and we've been together for 8-9 years)
basicly what I'm sayin is I'm trustworthy, I'll play it as far as I can. And it never goes past the line. (there is no grey area, it's a black and white line, very defined and you know when your getting close, and then I stop, I'll never cross it.) I love being able to tell hot chicks they are hot,
it's a reall good fealing.

Yeah, ole Grace is really hot,
PHD in bottony running a green house in Virginia (and she hates it)
loves the 80's and 80's night at the bricktop.
she used to be a regular until she moved.
now I get to hang with her cool sisters who are dating a couple of the regs.
and she is the biggest flirt. oh, her poor boyfriend in wisconson.

well, it was a fun night,
I made good dough, enough to cover my damn diversions class for speeding and play golf tomorow night.
flirted with a few of my favorite ladies.
and took my georgous wife home some extra spending money.
and told here all about my exploits.

yeah, not a whole bunch about ridein,
and not a whole bunch about golf either.
but then what are you gonna do.

cvo

oh, I'm really sorry about the destruction of the golf blog
I know your all bummed.

Damn, I hate to post, just cuz that picture goes down the screen further

2004-09-06T19:21:00.000-07:00

FUCK.
I could look at that shot all day.
and the guy in the cart. I'll bet he could as well.

Well, the first annual Bricktop labor day golf invitational was a success.

Woggs, Parker, Larken, Lex, D.A. Dave, (districk attorney) Mike Fisher (Fisher foods) Dr. Collin. (dr, in softwear design) Dj. Johnny black, Dubs (I.s saloon.)
quite the field of folks.
it was sweet.
18 holes at highlands, started at about 9:50 went till 3pm.
headed to pioneers,
and 18 more,
walked the first 18,
carted the 2nd 18
lots of bud's
couple shots of jim beam for me
Capt. morgan for Parker and the rest of the crew. both bottles were empty before the end of the day.

dude, it was sooooo sweet.

here it is.
2nd annual Bricktop golf invitaltional BI-annual.
memmorial day weekend.
36 holes of golf,
12 hours of racing.

it's the cvo Iron man.

ss cog

2004-09-05T19:46:00.000-07:00

does anyone have a ss cog i can barrow for a few weeks, maybe 18 or 19 tooth, i don't know what one will work the best for the caves. i am going down there this coming weekend with my mom and dad, so i was going to try them out... maybe just maybe i might race in 2 weeks.

scott

2004-09-05T19:35:00.000-07:00

here is a pic of my dad today, he went down to a race somewhere near Topeka. he ended up getting 3rd in the 45 and over, sport division. he's 58 years old.... scott

Your mom called, she says to bring over more beer.

2004-09-05T18:37:00.000-07:00

So, who's all going to the caves, and who's plannin on taking the camper ride with the crew? I have to drive seperate, can't get out of work. but i'll be there. and I'll be camping overnight saturday night. ( At least I don't think I can get out of work) Wogs is going to Jackson hole for a month and 1/2 and I've got to cover all his door & barback shifts fridays and sundays for a month. Damn, good cash, bad on the sleep.

Hey, did Jesse Peterson die? I didn't get any crazy links to boobs these past two weeks
now there is a real wtf.

oh, shit,
Next weekend is the capitol city crit. And I've got to go to stop class. I guess I could go to stop class on saturday. But that is the annual father son golf day. hmmm, lawn chair, 40, shades, air horn, crit? or stop class. desicions desicions...

2004-09-05T18:34:00.000-07:00

hmmm, Crazy things can just happen to you somtimes. My Folks hooked me up with a brand new chain saw today. (I'm turning 32 soon) I've had my dad's chain saw all summer. and he wanted it back. So he traded me tonight. You guys know what this means right. ole cvo might have to get ahold of someone's bob trailer a little this fall and do some work. And most of us who read this sight know's what that means. Yup, I might put the golf clubs away for a week or so and, well, the next time your cruzin through wilderness, you might just run across something that wasn't there before. and then again, I might take a nap and play some x-box. That is a whole new quandery for this winter, I think I'm gonna brake down and buy myself and x-box instead of a bob trailer. Either that or a new over sized driver. (Ha, MOTHERFUCKER, i knew i could squeez in some golf talk into this post, comon, talk your smack. he he he) cvo

2004-09-05T14:45:00.000-07:00

i stopped by my mom and dads today for lunch and read the paper, my mom showed me a new mattress for my nephew to use when he comes over to spend the night. man this thing is great, i might have to take it down to the caves for the race.. scott

2004-09-05T11:10:00.000-07:00

Well, I got it. Nice piece of machinery right here. It folds up so nice and compact. I'm making some shelves in the garage right now. I've got my first big prodject planned for her. I'm doing a large inlay floor piece at Bricktop. We're gonna cut out a section of floor and spell out Bricktop in Inlay wood and then set her down in Febuary when we move the bar. It's my biggest hardest prodject I've ever gotten myself into. I may need some help from some of my carpenter friends, or at least some advise over some beers some night. oh, and to my carpenter friends, borrow this whenever you want. W, I got a new blade for the table saw.

2004-09-05T11:05:00.000-07:00

shot my best round of golf yet this saturday at Pioneers, 97 for 18 holes. Yeah, I know I suck

Yeah, I rode my bike today, damn straight

2004-09-03T01:27:00.000-07:00

Well, the ol cvo got on his steed again today.
you stay away long enough, and you almost have an orgasim when you ride after a long break.
(uh, don't tell my wife I said that)

but I did ride out to wilderness tonight. Did the log ride, still safe and sturdy, Went through the fitness loop and cleared the balance beam. (that thing is much more dangerouse than our log ride) Then headed out to pioneers for a little easy peddling. Then off to work at the top, dead night tonight.
kinda sucked.
but I had that fealing about tonight, 3 day weekend usualy starts off slow. but Friday at the door, Saturday tending and sunday tending should be enough to come up with green fee's for monday and beer. Plus a little left over for the little woman.
and my frickin 60 dollar stop class, (mother fucker, damn, I suck, and I totaly deserve it too)
53 in a 40
yep, the honda is gonna be my coffin,
I need to make me a sticker.
really big
right across my font windown in the tint area
in etched glass vynly (sorry about the spelling nate)

CARS R COFFINS.

man that would make people laugh.
maybe in white on my yak rak visor. hmmm?
anyone else want one for their car?

could be the new rave?
damn, i gotta go to bed
peace

2004-09-03T01:18:00.000-07:00

Hey there CVO! Dunno if you even know me really, but yes, I do lurk around on your blog occasionally. Creepy, eh? Anyway, I have a very good and bicycley story that you and your little buddies might enjoy. . . I was riding home from Scheels tonight. . . .North on 27th Street near Van Dorn, riding along on the sidewalk, highly visible with my blinkey lights, etc. So, naturally, along came a car full of hooligans. Front Passenger Hooligan sticks his head out the car window and yells at me to "Buy a fucking car!" Gleefully, and in support of his friend's gesture, Driver Hooligan cranes his neck around to laugh at me. But what Driver Hooligan doesn't know is that while craning his neck, he will suddenly veer into oncoming traffic and side-swipe an oncoming car. And you thought there was no such thing as karma, eh! For your peace of mind, you should know that no one was hurt and that everyone had insurance for their precious deathomobiles. You should also know that I made sure to stick around to tell the cop who was at fault. Ride on,
Emily

2004-09-03T00:41:00.000-07:00

Damn

2004-09-03T00:40:00.001-07:00

oh shit dude, campy for mnt bikes is on it's way

2004-09-03T00:40:00.000-07:00

Damn Koats, you'd better get me some stickers at interbike this year

Indian cave

2004-09-02T19:09:00.000-07:00

So what is the plan for camping out for the race at the caves, cvo said he is going... And taking some golf balls and a few clubs to hit into the river. I plan on going, not to race but just to camp out and have fun. The only time I plan on riding my BUSS is between the camp fire and my cooler to get another beer.

oh yeah... when is the beer ride this year, man that was fun....

Scott

2004-09-02T17:11:00.000-07:00

well, after a day of bad news, I did get some good news. Home Depot is having their sale. Shortstop gave me the green light to get my new 600.00 De Walt compound saw. I have to give the radial arm back to dad, to make room in the garage. But Sunday I'm going for it. I'm also gonna hook up a new blade for the table saw Wills. Dad and I are going golfing sometime on Saturday, and then we'll head to Seward to drop off the Radial Arm. Not much else is going on. 116.00 dollar ticket this morning. That is gonna blow a sunday of golf going to diversions for 8 hours. But I'd rather pay the 60 bucks for stop class than that bill. I totaly blame this on my father (I can place blame wherever I want in my own mind) If he hadn't cancled on me, I wouldn't have talked Mohawk into golf. Instead of taking Mohawk home after golf I would have driven down supierior and missed the speed trap all together. Why take blame for my own lead foot when I can put it somewhere else just for the sake of a laugh. Hell If I would have been in the wife's Altima, I'd have been going WAY over the speed limit and probably wouldn't have gotten the stop class optioin. Hell I'd be in jail. The way that cop walked out into traffic and how fast I would have been going. I'd have run him right over. Maybe I should ride my bike more. cvo

2004-09-02T12:36:00.000-07:00

not quite as good of a shot as the first hole of the morning. I think ole cvo is gonna have to hook that morning golf thing up a few more times, it was purdy sweet.

2004-09-02T08:05:00.000-07:00

Had a nice time with John today. We're deffinatly going out again. I shot my normal into the 50's for 9. John went up into the 60's not bad for not golfing for so long. Then to top it all off. I got a speeding ticket on the way to dropping John off back at home.. Naild on Cornhusker over I-180,

DUDE, I'M TOTALY STOKED !

2004-09-01T20:45:00.000-07:00

Johnny mohawk is going golfin with me.
my old man called me and cancled tonight (damn you)
so I needed someone to go golfin with thursday morning,
I made a 7:30 am tee time,
and I'm not gonna break it.
even if John doesn't go with me I still want to go.
But having a beer after work with Chad after a 11 1/2 hour day, Chad did 12 hours
we ran into John and had some suds with him, and I was able to talk him into it.
Man, I love hangin out with that guy.
and If I get to go golfin with him, that's gonna be sweet.
hell.
that may convince some of you to pick up your clubs and come out as well

WHAT !!!!
two sports, well, golf is actualy a game not a sport in my book.
do something other than ride a bike......
no, i won't have anything to do with that.
but some dude out on the course with a mowhawk, that's gonna send some other old dude into a tailspin of bad shots.
I sooooo hope he flies the hawk.
look for pics later in the day folks.

and don't be so uppidy about shit, everyone has something they like to do other than turn the peddles over hour after hour after hour after hour. oh, i'm sorry did I bore you?
like getting bored on your bike after two hours?
Damn, have a sence of hummor.

get out and enjoy what the planet has to offer dude. don't get yourself into a rut.

2004-09-01T11:47:00.000-07:00

Hi guys and gals, Just wanted to say how well Somerset KY is welcoming cyclists on their local roads. Just got back from a ride where people were honking for me and raising there fist in the air and really cheering me on. THe local teenagers even stick there head out the window to make sure that they know that i am getting their message and how well they think i am doing. It kind of feels like i am in a race when i ride on the road. They must have "lance fever" because i know that they are actually all race car posers. I mean if they really were adept and followed racing they wouldn't have as much trouble passing a tiny little bicycle on the side of the road without having to honk and cheer him on. I mean that just can't hide their excitement. I can't wait to ride tomorrow and get cheered on somemore!

2004-08-31T19:24:00.000-07:00

Well ol dad and I went out golfin tonight. A little father son bonding time. Getting my dad into golf is sweet. We get to spend more time together, tellin stories and shit. Plus, he gets some well needed walkin in. 9 holes takes it out of him purdy good. And if it's hot, fooogeeetaboudidt. We're hittin it purday good this week, Holmes tuesday night, we're gonin thursday morning before work, (dad's on airport pickup duty) Then saturday morning somewhere? Not much else goes on in the blog life of the cvo, Gonna ride the long way to work on Thursday at the top. hit the log ride, slow pack it from wilderness down the thorn trail, to salt dogs stadium, uh haymarket park (sorry Chad) then cruz downtown to look at the sceenery. Damn, girls didn't dress like that when I was single. what the fuck? oh well, thank you Pairs and Nicky Hilton.

Okay, my recent bicycle story

2004-08-31T12:41:00.000-07:00

So I'm heading out to Eagle so my own shortstop, I will call her shortcake, has some time to herself at home. She's dealing with dangerous people and is a little stressed.

Anyways, I get to Eagle and it's only been an hour ride so I figure I'll just keep going to Elmwood. I like the long rides where you get in a rhythm and no one is talking and you just have yourself to be bothered by. I'm cruising along when a female dear, yes a doe of 150-200 lbs, jumps out of the bushs and crosses the path infront of me by about 30 yards. I slow way down hoping... but then it happens, two bambis hop out of the bushes and follow their mom. For a moment I worry. I hope momma doesn't see me as a threat and come over and kick my ass. It could be a long time before another biker comes along to find my bloody pulped up body.

They disappeared and it was cool and naturey, but geesh guys, I got scared by some deer. Guess my card as a man has been revoked. I shall cease my hunting privileges and I will join the female gathering people...

I'll attempt Wabash on Saturday if anyone wants to join.

~That other Scott.

So, this is what compromise is about hu,

2004-08-31T12:17:00.001-07:00

Well, I'm loosing my work bench in the garage, Shortstop wants to put both cars in the garage witch is elliminating my work space,
kinda,
I've got to take out my permanent bench and put it on super hinges so it can flip up and down. small garage, need space
and I'm gettin rid of the radial arm saw.
but, my wife is letting me get the 600 dollar dewalt compound saw
doesn't take up as much room, and I can haul it around to wherever I want, the bar (barstool open golf hole design) or to work for whatever bud needs built.
and wills, it makes it a lot easier for you to come over and borrow. Open invitation still bud, whenever you need it, I'll let you come over and drool on it when I get it. just waiting for that home depot no intrest no payments for a year sale. keep you eyes open for me guys.

if you don't know what a compound saw is . then you never will. (or the many bennifits of said machine.
If you do know what I'm talking about, you know to be stoked for me.
and when the wife gets and see's the garage all neat and clean. I may get some, (keep your fingers crossed for me.)
hell between the garage, and renting 50 first dates, I bound to at least make her happy.

happy enough to let me play golf all weekend.

(dude, it's a give and take thing.)
peace, cvo

well, not much happened with ol cvo this weekend,
road the bike a little,
golfed a lot,

I was gonna go for a ride with some folks tonight,
but i'm gonna pull the bail card.
I really doubt anyone is gonna want to go ride with my slow ass
at 8pm 9ish,
for a short ride at about 8-10 mph.

I'm tired and sore, and I don't feel like holdin anyone up, and I don't feel like riding my bike any faster than that.

I know some of you are gonna write in saying oh, that's ok you should still go with us. but no.
you don't understand.
I'm not going to shift my bike out of the granny gear the whole ride tonight. even if your sitting there waitin. it just aint gonna happen. so maybe i'll see you guys on your way back in.
and maybe, i won't even make it out, i'll just take a nap.

Corporate Mofo reader/Fark mod Gwinny writes in:
I've done Critical Mass in the past—it's always been a great, peaceful way of taking over the streets via the best way of getting around Manhattan, the bicycle.
When I showed up this time, it was pretty clear things were going to be different. There were lots of cops on scooters who were handing out bike rules, for one thing. For another, there were about three times as many riders as normal.
We headed south with no incident, then west and up sixth Avenue. There were cops blocking us from going into Herald Square (a block from Madison Square Garden), so we headed east again, north on Madison then west on 55th Street. The whole way we were shouting anti-Bush slogans and were being cheered by 90 percent of the passerby.
At seventh Avenue, we headed south again and biked triumphantly through Times Square. I was pretty near the front of the group at this point, so I saw the leaders turn onto 42nd Street then turn back up onto Broadway, going the wrong way up the street to head back into Times Square. I didn't think this was a good idea. . . indeed, two bikers clipped cops on their bikes and were immediately wrestled to the ground and arrested. These were the first two arrests ever to take place during a Critical Mass protest.
I walked back across Times Square with my bike and rejoined the southward flow. We did ride past Madison Square Garden, chanting "NO BUSH!" at the top of our lungs. In the West Village we hung eastward to go to the East Village, our final destination. Thousands of bikers circled Tompkins Square Park a few times before heading over to St. Mark's Church on Second Avenue. By now the police presence was much more aggressive, heading down streets the wrong way to cut us off, etc. Second Avenue from 10th Street up to 13th and then eastward on that street was completely choked with bikers. I stood on a fence in front of St. Mark's Church and watched the spectacle until the police vans started to arrive .. . at this point I left, not wanting to be arrested and all. I guess I was lucky—not only were hundreds of arrests made there shortly thereafter, but apparently there were a number of arrests made along the route as well.
It was exhilarating to take part in such a huge movement of social upheaval. I am sure others will have more exciting stories than I do since I escaped completely unscathed, but I'm just glad to have participated

NEW YORK (CNN) -- In the first major clampdown on protesters before the Republican National Convention, New York police arrested more than 250 bicyclists Friday night during a mass demonstration.
About 5,000 cyclists gathered in Union Square Park at 6 p.m. for "Critical Mass," a monthly bike ride around Manhattan, sponsored by environmental group "Times Up!"
Police started making arrests at around 8:30 p.m. in several locations along the bike route, including Madison Square Garden -- the venue for the Republican National Convention.
The cyclists caused "massive disruptions including of people trying to get to the hospital and so we took appropriate action," said NYPD Deputy Commissioner for Public Information, Paul Browne.
Cyclists said the bike ride was peaceful and the police acted unreasonably.
"It was a very peaceful, friendly occasion, like a parade," said one of the cyclists, Ellie Maxwell.
"Everyone was riding along when police suddenly penned us in and started picking people off," Maxwell said. "The police actually caused more disruptions than the cyclists because they blocked off roads -- at one point for as long as an hour and a half -- whereas the cyclists were always moving."
Most of those arrested were taken for processing to Pier 57 and will be charged with disorderly conduct, an NYPD spokesman said.
The three-story, block-long pier has been converted to a holding pen especially for those protesting the convention so that city precincts will not be overrun by waves of arrests.
The pier can hold 1,000 people and will remain in operation until the end of the U.S. Tennis Open.
Police distributed flyers at the start of the ride in Union Square warning that anyone breaking traffic laws could be subject to arrest.
The monthly bike ride drew thousands more than usual due to the number of people who wanted to protest against the convention.
"Critical Mass" takes place on the last Friday of every month to promote the interests of bicyclists.
According to its Web site, "Critical Mass's aim is to make people take notice of cyclists as road users."
"Although some obstruction of 'normal' traffic occurs," says the Web site, "we are only seeking to raise the profile of cycling, and put cycling and transport issues on the agenda so that they will not be ignored."
An estimated 250,000 protesters are expected to march from Union Square on Sunday past Madison Square Garden

Well it was the second time in my riding career, yes i was hit by a car tonight, i went down to see nate, bw3's to get some wing sauce for a guy i work with, and to the n-zone ( my regular hang out), on the way home i stopped by don raskeys house to see if he was home or not but he must have been on his way home from platte helping jp. so i was heading west on superior (bike path) towards 180. i even had my turbo cat light on, the "walk" sing was in my favor, i rang my bell, and even yelled but i still couldn't get the b.u.s.s. stopped in time, i was going down hill at that point so i was heading pretty fast, a honda coming off of 180 on to superior just kept going (turing right on red) and he never looked to see me, i did everything i could to stop but going over the bars to miss him. first thing i did getting off of the ground was to check my front wheel and make sure it was true. that's all i was worried about, they pulled over on superior to ask if i was ok i said " just keep going " one other girl stopped on the off ramp of 180 to see if i was ok..... scott

I think Jesse went out to Platte today, maybe he'll tell us how it is out there, and whats left to be done, (hint hint) I don't think I'm gonna make it out there with you guys on Tuesday night, the wife has got a few chores for me.

Scotty, Dirty, & his little lady showed up at the bar tonight. But nobody else took advantage of the beer offer, (I lied earlier, tall boys came in today, nice)

Woggs is steppin up to the plate for Monday bartender, & I've got a full month of Mondays trainin him. I'm stoked, Woggs is gonna make one speedy frikin bartender & then I'll get to sooner or later work with him on a busy weekend night. Sooner or later someone will burn out or retire, and then, bam weekend woogsarama.

wow, do you all know what that means?

I've always had the, one free beer on me, invetation laid out there when I open. Now a whole month of them. Hope some of you take advantage. speekin of beer (drink beer now)

(Scotty, I owe you a beer wednesday night when we go golfin.)
hey, you ever played the jim aeger short course? I've ridden my bike through it many times, but never golfed it. That thing can't take more than an hour, and it's cheep, maybe if I get all my chores done for the wife, I might slip over there for a few holes Tuesday.

hmmmm. gotta keep excersizing somehow, and the wife does have aerobics late, hmmmm.
(I'll call ya dude.)

well it's gettin late, 2:30 am
I'm almost out of beer,
And, I've got a full day at the sign shop bustin my ass for Chad for lettin me head out early today, It's sweet now Nate, We've networked everthing together in the room, and now ole Chad is grovin me into the OKI data world. (your the only one who gets any of that I'm sure)

like how I just single folks out in the middle of this blog. (well, tuff shit Butchy, your just gonna have to deal with it, turtle lover.)

2004-08-23T00:20:00.000-07:00

Me, and my little buddy Justin. he must have known I was going golfin all day cuz he wanted some hang time with dad. I got in 45 holes since friday night, yup 45 holes, all at the highlands (best public course in town I'd say) 9 twighlight with Scotty and Collin on Friday. 9 with my dad on Saturday (he hasn't golfed in over 10 years, I got him back into it for a little father son bonding time) 9 sunday morning with Alex and Larkin, and then 18 an hour later with Parker and Collin again. Yeah, you can talk all the crap you want about how golfin is easy and shit. But you carry your bag and walk 27 holes in a day in 90 degree heat, I haven't been this sore since I raced Hitchcock last year. Speaking of "the hell of the midwest, how'd everyone do who's reading this? Lets hear the stories. And what about all the hang time with good ole Clark? How was the shin dig the other night at Nate's? Big cat said he saw the Manitou rig in GI.

This was on the sheltowee trace. It is a trail that runs North/South through the entire state of KY. Pretty fun single track through this section. Very mtn bike tourable, and better than rails to trails because you have to have a little bit of skill and the ride breaks up a little bit. Anyone want to bike tour it?

So I freaked out yesterday. I do that
I get so wound up into something I dive right in without thinking. And then after I do stupid shit, that I might get in trouble for. I do the same thing. I freak out and go 180 and want to eliminate it.

case in point, now i'm all into golf. and I'm diggin it.
Shit, I don't miss sweatin my ass off and getting chased by mosquito's at all. I'm sure I will in the future.

Just like wanting to build shit in my garage, go through a hella phase, and now, I don't even know where my table saw is, (Well, I do, but I'm not in any hurry to get it back, really W, build something else while you still got it, it's cool)

I'm hoppin that after winter I'll actually want to ride a bike again. or I'll be kickin myself for selling off my bikes for an x-box and a bunch of games, or a motorcycle.

VAROOOOOOOOM.
cars may suck,
but motorcycles rock!

We camped in Puder Canyon, the campground we stayed in was sweet, lots of hippies for the show in Mishuwaka, think outside with big stage and deck. But after saturday morning, the shitter was not in service unless you had your shots

2004-08-17T11:09:00.000-07:00

This is a bad shot, but it's the rock garden dirty bailed in. We sat there for 10 min or so. So dirty could clear the cob webs. about 7 guys came buy and floated over this section. in the middle of this rock garden there is a 4 foot drop into more rocks. This dude on a Foes goes through and it was like he was riding through a grass field, just buttered through it. his foes made our downhill bikes look like cross country rigs. it was soooo big.

2004-08-17T11:06:00.001-07:00

Keystone has a butt load of stuff to ride, man made stuff. This is the place to ride if your heading out for a day, two teater totters at the base by the gondola, and a bunch of balance beam stuff. quarter pipe, launch box. It was sweet.

2004-08-17T11:06:00.000-07:00

another run, same spot, same sound, diferent view

2004-08-17T11:05:00.000-07:00

Hard to see, but Drew is in the air, and he lands at the bottom. there was a big bottoming out thud when he landed by me.

2004-08-17T11:04:00.000-07:00

some mf got in front of us way up the hill, we thought we gave him enough time, but we caught him on the bridge section and had to stop. fucker

2004-08-17T11:03:00.000-07:00

First time though and Drew decided to see how it would feal to fall 7 ft into tree's and rocks. I've never seen him laugh so much, then get back up and clean it.

2004-08-17T11:02:00.000-07:00

Dirty took the worst fall I've ever seen in my downhillin adventures, full face lid and it still bit him in the eye. We had to stop when he bailed into this huge rock field. shit as big as the desk your sittin at. Drew made it though, and I walked once. 2nd time I came rollin up on dirty under his bike. It was purdy scary, But ole dirty is one skilled mf. he totaly cleared stuff I was too scared to ride. And it was his first time. boys got skills

2004-08-17T10:59:00.000-07:00

keystone has a lot of bridge work, log rides in the tree's, this one gets up over 7 ft, but you carry speed and your fine, unless someone stops in front of you. Witch is what happend to drew and he went over the edge. this winds into the tree's and splits into two ways, one about 18 inches wide into a 5 ft down roll out, then a 2nd one about 5-6 inches wide into an 8 foot drop, we didn't do that, but it was sweet to see.

2004-08-17T10:58:00.000-07:00

Here is Dirty catchin some huge air on this kicker off the side. None of the pictures I took do any of the jumps or the vert any justice. if I stopped to take a pic, it was very burly

BLIND MAN IN A LADIES BAR

A blind man enters a Ladies Bar by mistake. He finds his way to a barstool and
orders a drink. After sitting there for a while, he yells to the bartender, "Hey,
you wanna hear a blonde joke?"

The bar immediately falls absolutely quiet. In a very deep, husky voice, the woman
next to him says, "Before you tell that joke, sir, I think it is just fair -
giving that you are blind - that you should know five things

1 - The bartender is a blonde girl.

2 - The bouncer is a blonde girl.

3 - I'm a 6 feet tall, 180-pound blonde woman with a black belt in karate.

4 - The woman sitting next to me is blonde and is a professional weightlifter.

5 - The lady to your right is a blonde and is a professional wrestler.

Now think about it seriously, Mister. Do you still wanna tell that joke?"

The blind man thinks for a second, shakes his head, and declares, "Nah Not if I'm
gonna have to explain it five times."

ESTES PARK, Co In what paramedics called a freak accident, tourist Ben Miller lost his penis in a bear trap at an Estes Park souvenir shop. Miller, a 39 year old draftsman from Orlando, Florida, and his family were visiting the Big Thompson River Gift Shop Thursday afternoon when the mishap occurred.

Martha Miller, wife of Ben Miller, told reporters that Ben was using the restroom at the time of the accident. The entire shop, including the restrooms, is littered with authentic items of the Old West. Rifles, washtubs, animal skins and even bear traps are hanging on every wall.

Shop owner, Ted Larson, explained, I hung that old bear trap next to the urinal in the mens restroom. It was kind of a joke. Lord, that thing is at least a hundred years old and the hinges are rusted solid. Larson said that he was convinced that the trap wouldnt close. I sprayed it with WD-40 and stomped on the release, and it still wouldnt close! said Larson.

Paramedics were unclear as to how Millers penis actually got close enough to the bear trap or what triggered it. The trap was attached to the wall approximately 18 inches from the urinal, so it seems unlikely that anyone could accidentally injure themselves while urinating, stated Jared Taylor of Estes Park EMS. We arrived within minutes of the accident. As with any dismemberment, we attempted to recover the severed member so that it can hopefully be reattached. Unfortunately, it appears that Mr. Millers penis fell through a hole in the floorboards.

One of the paramedics spent almost an hour crawling around under the old building with a flashlight, but could not locate Millers member. Police and paramedics speculate that the severed penis was eaten or carried off by an animal.

Miller was taken by ambulance to Whitewater Medical Center where he spent over 2 hours in surgery. Although he is expected to recover, doctors could do little in the way of reconstruction. Doctors suggested that Miller and his wife seek a qualified counselor to help them through this traumatic period upon returning to Orlando.

Its too early to tell, was the response given by Martha Miller when asked if she intended to sue.

Ted Larson, bearing flowers, visited the Millers at the hospital and offered his sympathies. Its a tragedy, Ted told reporters. But what I cant figure out is how he got his thing way over there in the trap. And whats more, I cant figure out how he got the blamed thing to snap shut. I just know theyre going to sue me and take everything Ive got. People always got to be poking things where they dont belong.

Larson offered the bear trap to the Millers to keep as a souvenir. They declined
