I bet the club would allow you to come out and cut some slappers this weekend.

Go ride a LA race, they don't own any trimming devices over there just ribbon.

I didn't know you were supposed to trim them slappers! I thought they were there to clean your goggles for you and knock the mud off.

I have always thought the LA boys did a good job. You should try Maplesville in Bamaland! But I do think they enjoy seeing those west Tex freeway riders crying in their boots. We sorta enjoy it at Cycleland also.

West Texas is rather brushy in the good riding terrain. Try dodging instead of riding thru. I am sure there is a path as big as your bike and body. It requires a unique style of riding for sure.

They called it a stress fracture. She should be back in the saddle by LTR. A little upset with me cause I won't let her ride PEA.
