Michael (Gallagher) and I (Jessica) are moving back to Portland in July and August. The last picture with Hood in the background gets me REALLY excited for the return. We will both race cross in the fall. I started last fall and upgraded to Cat 2, so I will be doing the chasing instead of being chased. Fun times!

Hey Matt!
I totally agree. I try to participate in at least one trail day per year. Usually the 'official' IMBA day. I missed it this year, unfortunately. I wish I could do more, but my schedule has not allowed it. I figure after all this racing, I will have more time to pay back the times I couldn't help. I am a big advocate of helping and I do my part when riding by being a responsible user and moving things that I can w/o saws or equipment.
Thanks for your post.

Or at least carry a foldable saw in your back pocket and cut a couple small logs/branches out of the way on some of your rides...right? right...

Hey Sue

Hey I'm a big fan here...but gotta say that all riders (including pros) should get out and do at least one full day of trail maintenance a year. The forest service doesn't have the manpower or dollars these days to maintain all the trails. It's up to all of us to keep the trails clear and in good condition...eh?

Ohhh boyyy! Since when do you need a colostomy bag? You really shouldn't ride that much that you can't control your bladder. It's not healty!
