| Name: | Malakoff Diggins Mountain Biking 2008 |
|
| Description: | It drizzled most of the time this year... but we managed to have a great time on the trails, and introduce some new people to Malakoff Diggins. The Mountain Biking was great as usual, the company was fantastic.... Thanks to Janet and Nancy W. for planning the trip. Also, Thanks to Chris and Paul for bringing the awnings and bathroom humor (Paul). Also, thanks to Keith for getting our stuff out of the rain, and driving 8 hours each way to ride! Thanks to Rich for taking pictures of me (otherwise I wouldn't be in the pics!) Thanks Deb for taking home the cooler. Thanks Marty for making the best popcorn ever. Thanks to Nancy T. for making Marty make the best popcorn ever. Thanks to Greg and Corinne for sharing their Vanagon. Thanks to Bill for telling stories around the camp fire. Thanks to Valerie for the most-excellent soup (even if it was out of a box). Thanks to Josh getting a flat so we had time to fix Janet's brake. Thanks to Camille for the peep show / tick removal... And as for the talent show... Johann is going to walk across hot coals NEXT year (I have this in writing). Also, it was great to meet Al and Eric - hope to see you guys next year too! I didn't get a track for the first day (Saturday) so all the riding pictures have been overlaid on Sunday's track (date stamps were modified so the pictures would overlay on this map). | |
