The Ripper was sooo much fun!

I had such a good time! It was my first event and it kicked my butt! I loved seeing all the people Ive met along the way in one place it was like going for a ride with everyone you have ever met.
I had a bunch of stuff go wrong with my bike and luckily had the king of trail fairies to help me out ( thanks for putting my handlebar back in place) Huge thanks to all the organisers and volleys for toughing it out and making it such a great day.
Oops, this is Darth by the way.

Since you and Cooleen were the only women's solo team (whooo hooo!), Fluid's got a little something for you and your partner.

That's awesome! Congrats to all the ladies, and thanks for waiting for me on the way up!

See you at the Super D! I'd say it's a pretty similar race, except it's a team of 2 or 4 people, and the whole team has to cross the finish at the same time.

Yay!
I'm so down for the Super D. I'm not sure how they are going to do the D part but after Saturday I do not doub thier creativity.

Oh My Lord. I nearly died on the last one. This route is going to kill me for sure.
Please bury me in my bike gear and Ripper jersey.
