2008 Wednesday Night Worlds

Yesterday was the first Wednesday Night Worlds at South SeaTac. It usually takes a few weeks before numbers get big for the race. Wick has never been great at advertising and people find out that the series has stared via word of mouth. But this year was different! Biggest draw to the first event I can remember. I bet his numbers were over 200. I must have been the combination of good weather and a mention on the Indie Series forum.

It was good to see everyone and a lot have seem to have spent $$$ on new rigs this year. Some Giants, a few Scotts and a pink Ellsworth to name a few. My trusty Intense Spider is still doing just find. I really don't think anyone has come up with a design much better than the Spiders VPP.

Jimmy Hendrix spent some time this winter putting in a new section of singletrack. It was really nice and has a killer berm. A great addition to the trail network.

I was pretty happy with my effort. My planned March build up pretty much went in the crapper do to recurring bursitis in my knees. All is better now but I'm pretty much off mark fitness wise.

The first Indie Series at this same local is going to be a test.
