It'd actually work better if it was this weekend for me, as I've got a race in Missouri on Sunday and have a friend coming into town on Saturday of the 17th/18th weekend. So it looks like I'm gonna' be out for the spring campout this year, sadly... Oh well. I'll make it out for one of 'em sooner or later.<br /><br />Thanks for the update, Matt.MGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00377768960221628840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7330667.post-22362135328042063402010-04-07T13:28:20.846-05:002010-04-07T13:28:20.846-05:00MG, I actually jumped the gun,the Potter's cam...MG, I actually jumped the gun,the Potter's campout is the weekend of the 17-18th & NOT this weekend, guess I got excited thinking about riding bikes, camping & enjoying frosty beverages around a fire!<br /><br /> Let folks know & come on down if you can make it, I believe it will be held at the Ballyhoo campsite allowing much more room for all.paxtoncoyotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15738361291848546953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7330667.post-87384447198264764982010-04-07T10:33:50.202-05:002010-04-07T10:33:50.202-05:00Oh man...

I knew I forgot something. ;-) I guess it's been busy around here, 'eh?<br /><br />I'm looking forward to seeing your Fargo build-up, Bergen... That bike is gonna' be sweet for the type of riding you do. I want to get out there for some gravel and Potter's riding with you all too. Not sure if it'll be this weekend, but if I can, I certainly will.<br /><br />Thanks for the reminder!!<br /><br />Cheers,<br />MGMGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00377768960221628840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7330667.post-66072559828730227102010-04-06T12:11:55.636-05:002010-04-06T12:11:55.636-05:00SWEET pic of the Fargo ripping through the woods, ...SWEET pic of the Fargo ripping through the woods, I can't wait! I'll still be on the km ss this weekend for the Potter's Pasture spring campout, hope no snow this time but like you said, I'll be hanging with friends, riding bikes & MAYBE drinking a few beers, it will be GOOD!paxtoncoyotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15738361291848546953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7330667.post-85618409922996481712010-04-06T09:04:02.058-05:002010-04-06T09:04:02.058-05:00Thanks guys. Yeah, I'm very excited. Ironica...Thanks guys. Yeah, I'm very excited. Ironically though, I was so spent after getting home from work and the bike shop last night that I pretty much had to go straight to bed. The good news is I got 11 hours of sleep last night. The bad news is I still have a bike to build.<br /><br />G-Ted, I heard about your exclusive 'sneak peek' on Wednesday... Man, you're super lucky! I haven't even seen the prototypes of that bike, so you're seeing stuff I've never even come close to laying eyes on! But that said, I'm eager to start pedaling one of those new steel frames as my SS rig soon.<br /><br />And back to the race at Jewell for a final word... Even though I wasn't shockingly fast, I know there are a few things I could have done to be faster, but when I think about it, being as fast as possible really wasn't my goal. If it were, I probably would have shown up early enough to pre-ride the course. 'Nuff said. But I did succeed in having a lot of fun, not embarrassing myself and hanging with my good buddies on an absolutely beautiful day. And I will not apologize at all for doing any of that successfully. :-) It was awesome!<br /><br />Thanks for the comments, guys. I'll talk to you both soon. Guitar Ted, have a great trip up to MPLS. Give Jason a big bear hug for me.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />MGMGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00377768960221628840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7330667.post-63984541797873216922010-04-06T08:29:39.870-05:002010-04-06T08:29:39.870-05:00Time trialing a Fargo...

I bet the wrenches are turning right now in the Gersib Bike Den!<br /><br />Good show on the time trial. I hear ya on the short effort stuff. I was never any good at that either, but the long haul, well. That's more my thing too. Different motors for different things, ya know? It's all good my Brother!<br /><br />I'll be in the Twin Cities eyeballin' the new steel rig Wednesday. Can't wait to check that out! <br /><br />Take care! see ya soon.Guitar Tedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10960580677548417562noreply@blogger.com
