Landahl goodness :)

Went to Landahl this morning for some tasty tasty good times on the sweetest single track the midwest has to offer. Parked at argo, dropped in on Tasty to the tri-trail meet up, root canal and rim job out west to the clusterfuck trail meet up, family trail around past scotty's drop in then across the double track down dave's maze, back to the clusterfuck, then took the rest of the little rim job connector down to the boulevard, took that about 1/4 of a mile before turning back because of mud, went back up the double track to the family trail, hit both tech off shoots, back on family past scotty's again, down dave's again to the clusterfuck, then back east on will's with swedish erotica thrown in, continued past the double track to the tri-trail meet up, then up tasty goodnes back to the argo lot.

landahl is the bomb. It will work your ass like no other, especially when the rocks and roots are just damp enough to make things interesting. Best trails in the KC area, no doubt. Everything from the tightest, twistyist single track, to open runs, to technical beat downs, double track, rocks, roots, berms, creek crossings, multiple ways to take on every trail. Time to spend a 10 hour day out there soon.

Race Results

Quick post about the couple races Mason and I recently competed in. At the BoneBender Mud Fest from Hell, we got 4th in the team class. The next weekend at the God's Country MTB Race at the Lawrence RIver Trails, Mason and I both entered the single speed class and got last and second to last, hahaha. I blew out a sidewall on my rear tire my second lap, and DNF'd while Mason posted his fastest lap times out there ever, and the old dudes still threw down the hammer. we got a long way to go to start winning stuff around here.
