Casperson Park Round Aboot- Results

Good 5 hour day on 3" of so fresh and so clean... First legit FatBike "thing" of the season, and on paper. Can't get more legit then that, right. Right.

None were cheated on the loop. Snowmo rolled well, no sledneck close calls, lake cross always questionable, the boot line chop was enjoyable, never wore any dog or horse dung, mtb trail packing it backwards LCR style, jim owned the split rock backwards and the wood skinny the right way, plastic skinny backwards shook the knees, prairie drifting energy suck, and all felt eyes bleed on the reverse route back to Casperson.

RESULTS (on paper)

Jim showing Drew Wilson (aka Silence aka RideonPurpose) the meaning of "motorboat"...

Point! 

Singletrack snomo...
Jimmmay!!! Rides a bike for longer than 2 hours. Point!
Jim gets his first victory of the season. Look out fast guys that avoid the tech. Jimm'll motorboat on by like it's no thing... Then wheelie on off, with a 'ding ding'.

Jim's only weakness, coasting the downhills. ha

2 months of racing coming up... Way too many options, only 1 to rule them all... Coldbear. But who knows, might just skip em all and add to this loop insted, and do another one of these with little notice, and make it on paper. You wont get cheated.

Casperson Park Round Aboot- Sat Dec 29th

I got something in mind for 3 days from now.

WHY- It's an idea in my head and stellar conditions to pull off a fatbike 'thing'.

WHERE- Meet at Casperson Park, Lakeville (n iowa by way of MN). 9AM.  (Interweb map the location) Easy access from 35W, 185th or 210th St exits.

WHAT- Plan on 4-6 hours on a bike. Terrain will include everything you could ride with a snowbike. It will satisfy all who enjoy the fat. If not or you say "it sucked/ waste of a day", you can superman punch me with no recourse.

8- If weather participates, and I get a bum garbage disposal replaced with my time off, then I can mark it and it'll be on paper.

8- If weather don't participate, then I wont mark it and we just ride this worthy loop at a pace that will not cheat you.

Swag Swap- Bring a new or slightly used bike part to donate/ swap. Gold medal and last in get dibs. We'll head to Harry's Cafe (first round on me) after.

8 cont- Wondering if you should show or not? Plan on 1.5 hour ride on variety of terrain (3mi snowmo, 0.5mi lake cross, 3mi snowmo, 2mi shoe/ boot, 1mi gravel) 1 lap of 9 miles of 'groomed' singletrack (1.5hrs), then reverse route (1.5hrs if not bonking) back to Casperson.

See it? and the lake to cross.
NOTE- My game, my rules. More details later, but THOSE WHO RIDE THE TECH GET TIME BONUSES. Big time bonuses.

Interested? Pound rocks/ Send me a signal. Or just show... and Pack a cold lunch.

Embrace the boot line.
More details this week when I'm not you tubing how to replace a garbage disposal.

Consider this 'thing' your Christmas present.

Plan for the worst, expect the best... 8.
