Rusty Rusty… Holy you have progressed a junk load from… last Tuesday!

Random comment from Rusty on Tuesday night…

"Lots of Steeps!"

I am super glad that you are having a sick time up there. Wait for me on Thursday, I be in the Village with Shirk and Stinky_rider7… I am so bringing my camera forsure now!

And what fork did you get?

Word to the to the wise… stay away from some beer called Red Devil, my brain ceased to function the Friday morning!

Cheers!

send them a pic of you riding their DH RACE bike off the roof of Rochester School…and ask if the crack is really a manufacturing defect.
