Marysville/ 3 Top Ten spuds


Awesome Job to Spud Randy and Dewey for winning CASH!!! ( 2nd place Duo, 5th overall fastest team)
Also hats off to GUL for riding a Single Speed for 9 hrs and finishing a tough 4th place.
I hung in there for 8.25 hours and finished in 8th place. What a brutal day on such a fun course!! All you did was hop hop hop logs... I battled bee stings ( got stung on lap 1), had a couple mishaps and monkey butt by the end of the day.

All the Spuds represented and we definately missed you Beach Spuds!! You guys would have rocked the course and had a great time!! Once again, strangers, fellow racers shouted Support and spread Spud Love throughout !!!
Overall, A Great Sat. race was put on by the Visit PA guys and the Spuds had a very SPudlike day!!!
Spud out!! by a very tired sore Spud Linds. I feel like ive been run over by a Spud truck!!

When things go Bad.......

Hey Spuds.... Everyone get on the wire and congratulate GUL for his Stoopid 50 ride this past Sunday.....
He's got some painfully crazy stories, about the day. I wish i could have seen you hanging on to the back end of the front group getting pulled up the mountain!!!

Once again, his Santa Cruz failed him and he had the flat tire, shifting issues, and I think his seat fell off!!
GUL also had some bad wrecks and dehydration cramping issues BUT the Spud FINISHED !!
Awesome effort Larry...

PS..Im buying you a real bike for next year.
Nobody rides a 26" bike any more...
