Perhaps the next Challange?? Ride Crissy to Pt.Em then back up to T.I., JUMP the wall and return to the bus without bleeding...
What do you think,
L.M.G.

NOTE: this is a joke

I like it! A downwinder earned the old fashoined way is even more enjoyable . . . so long as the lactic acid hasn't built up too much!

Charlie is right, it was sick - words can barely describe it! I hit TI in 8 tacks out of Pt. Emery and hooked up with Chip, Gibby and John and Charlie and Sander showed up after. We had a sick huckfest all around at TI for a bit and then started heading back down to Pt. Emery but detoured North and Chip, Gibby and I headed to Richmond, rounding the long rock wall jetty at the Marina for some sick speed runs down the channel, then another brief huckfest at Brooks Island and then rounded the island and headed back to Berkeley, through the pier and back to Pt. Emery to get to the beach just in time in typical light Berkeley fade-away winds at the end of the day. Huge winds, TI and the OC were going off... way lit on 12's the whole time. Sick.
