GI Joe, Now that I have a full time job, it's more an issue of time than money. I actually have some web space that I can use. I just need to sit my butt down in front of one of these god-forsaken machines for a day or two and rebuild my website. I bet that it will happen this winter some time, before spring definitely, but not until finals are over. ABQ TVI students need a LOT of tutoring. Paul, I plan to see you and the family there, definitely. Andy, Skater chick? Quarter pipes? Cute? Dude, you're only human! That's a good enough excuse to miss an old-fart race in my opinion! Hang out with her every chance you get! And then, when you have some leverage, bring her to the races! Tell her that she can sweep the women's division! I bet she'd smoke some of us older guys even. The more, the merrier!     Rate post 187971 !

She's a good skater too. I'll be there next time. And no offence to you K-lee but she's cuter too! ;)     Rate post 187874 !

However, when we come, we do wanna go to Santa Fe & check you guys out. It was rad to meet your fam @ Breck. I love your stoke, Joe!!!!!!!!     Rate post 187861 !

I'd love to have you and Lynn for the weekend! If you have only one trip to ABQ in you though, save it for Spring, TimeShip will have plenty of events again. The Bear will be held in May again, and we'll be attempting a World Speed record out on Rio Bravo as soon as the tail winds pick up to about 30mph. No disrespect to Gary, just a straight fast hill. Chris, I'll e-mail you directions....again.     Rate post 187853 !

Would of made it last week but Andy had plans to skate all day with a girl, not a girl friend, no no don't get me wrong, I wouldn't want to start any domestic wars in my own house. She's just a chick that has a couple of quarter pipes and a rail in her driveway, not to mention she races motor cross. Can you imagine, he'd rather hang with her than us old farts in some dusty ditch on the west side, go figger.     Rate post 187818 !

On 10/27/2004 GBMII wrote in from United States  (143.183.nnn.nnn) Hey Joe - If the're projected to beat me and PALMER next year, they must be SMOKIN' you already.... Missed you at RBBS, it was fun but lonely. We needed about ten more heads out there. KLee is right, that place would make for a pretty cool BBQ. I had your Supertanker relic from the high jump in my jeep too.     Rate post 187814 !

The Sk8 Skool kids are ripping and should be able to take out Palmer and GBM by next season. Mc Clarens beware! Please schedule accordingly so that we don't double book the same day.

I will refrain from posting results "off the top of my head" in the future to avoid such confusion. From now on, only "official" results will be posted. When should we race again? First or second Sunday in November?     Rate post 187656 !

The MAN came up while the ditch was being swept out, only to make sure that we weren't buring bodies. When he found out that we were cleaning the ditch to race skateboards in it, he said "Oh, fine, I don't care if you do that here." Then he left us to our own devices. After sweeping some dirt left by local construction and taping up the cones, we took our practice runs. With the help of girlfriends and wives, we were able to get in 3 timed runs (using the walkie talkie/stopwatch method) for all 4 racers. Here were the results (off the top of my head) 1. GBMII - 53.4ish (!!!) 2. K-LEE - 54.7ish 3. Mark J - 58.something 4. Miller - 59.something We should try to do this at least every 2 or 3 weeks. The MAN is on our side. The ditch is perfect. The course is 28 cones long. I plan to extend it at least another 20 cones, hopefully making it a 2 minute plus course! Entry fee will be $5 per racer, winner take all. This is NOT a bust, so invite all your friends and spectators. Let's bring lawn chairs and a barbeque grill. This can start to be a monthly or bi-monthly banked slalom get-together. The course can be run on a longboard set loose, or a slalom board with a good wheelbase. Who wants to run banked slalom?     Rate post 187481 !

Could not get there until 3:30. Heard that George tore it up. Anyway, James and I rode and hit the marks. Very tricky K-Lee. I will have to change my setup. Bottom is killer. The rice burning wheelie dude came into the ditch while we were there and wanted to film with us riding along side them. It was cool because we got to see one of the guys hit the bank and when he fell over the bars the bike rolled over him. It was kkkkkknarly. By the way, after the ditch we went speed boarding in the new sub next door and it was killer. Fast enough to make it fun and 5 elbow turns to make it tricky. We rode till dark. Is this sport sick or what? JIM     Rate post 187345 !

Now, each state only has so much money and so much tax. This is your money. They have to figure out where to spend it. Sometimes, they ask you to help decide. A lot of people have some really silly ideas about where that money should go. Such as education, disability, cops, firemen, and programs for the elderly. Vote no on all that junk... redirect that money to flood control. Be aware that sometimes they try to trick you. They say that money is going to be routed to "parks and recreation". Naturally, you and I think, "Killer! New bowls!" But city folk don't think that. They think, "Marvelous! New squash courts and a velodrome!" So don't fall for that.

On 10/22/2004 Mark Jeangerard wrote in from United States  (64.42.nnn.nnn) Keep in mind that you live here *and* you can make a difference. Who's going to make a better president? Who cares? How much money is spent making ditches? We decide. Vote on your flood control bond issues. It's your money, how do you want it spent? Nov. 2 GO     Rate post 187127 !

Let's shoot for this Sunday, pending good weather of course. I'll be there promptly at noon-thirtyish. Bring what you can, especially you GBMII. Here are my digits: 242-1049. Let's see how organized we can be.     Rate post 187085 ! Best-Of Ncdsa (0)   Informative (0)   Abuse(0)   Flag Moderators (0)
