everyones a winner.

What a perfect end to another Filthy summer of adventure and bromance: High Noon #3. Darren of the NFMC was the solo/ monoshock winner of the day completeing 9 effortless laps to victory, seen here enjoying a pre race donut. Oren is the best XT rider in the history of all XT riders anywhere, ever. The amateur XT team of raf, bone and mitchi took the twin shock team category: slow and steady. DFL was Stu and skinny pete, who still have a lap to complete. Best pants: chris w, and best overall dressed: Tyler Lepore once again with his Red,White and Blue leather one piece. Hot dogs and club cookies by Atlin. Awesome "LOSER MACHINE" prizes brought by Torie. And a challenging scramble course set up by Bone and Mitchi left many satisfied dirt enthusiasts.


Thanks to everyone who makes this the funnest motorcycle day of the year for us; and our trusty, rusty XTeam.................. Mitchi

We rolled in from Kick Start Walters place up in jersey with a crew of so.cals, jerseys and limeys left over from the Gypsy Run. 15 of us splitting lanes into Brooklyn via the Williamsburg bridge with us pulling caboose.

Filthy flat #3, 12:30am friday night

Here is what another typical ride looks like for us these days. Record setting 5 flat repairs one roll. Pictured here is T-manistan using the kickstand lean technique, made famous on the KVR by little Ty.

 Mitch hooties bottom line: two tire iron, both 21 and 18 inch spare tubes, patch kit, hand pump, soap, and a stop watch.  Little Tys under 30 mins is still tops for us amatueres. It has become a ritual of our club to enjoy our flats now as we are prepared. Without endurance you will never win at enduro. Mitchie

ps. high noon scramble has a new location; even dirtier than before.............over a car, kicker to drywall, shantytown whoops, and more.  Sunday September 25th

mitchies 911 birthday "twin tires"

 
things got off to a rough start, ol'dirty curt and tory try to figure out how to fix three holes with two patches. it was going to be a long night and still had to ride 100 km to spence's bridge. 

this is the birthday boyz sleeping spot on night one.


we had a second flat on torman's bike, we loaded his gear and wheel on mitchies bike and he rode 2 up with jah bon....oh ya then 2 of 4 of us ran out of gas in the middle of nowhere. curt and bone made a fun for gas leaving the other two of the group the bake in the sun. picturing cuba and mexico they said



lilT tried to ride to china

lilT not only caught this beauty but invented the "module"for storing fish in ice with handy roadside supplies. This was his present for mitchie

Gypsy Run 5

Back in Jersey after a great time with great people. The camp sites for both nights were the cats ass. I rode chase truck, my bike needs some fixing. It turned out to be a blast anyway. I got to ride a super sweet and fast heritage soft tail today. Going to tear into my bike tomorrow. Couldn't be any better place to break down. Staying in Walters basement with handful of other dudes. Saw some great bikes and expect to see more during the week.
Can't wait to see Mitchy here soon. So tired, must sleep.
