Revenge of the Sith – Day 10

Well, Tony might be down and out, but we might have found something to keep him occupied while he’s healing up. And no Barb, that’s not how you inflate her.

It’s just as well Tony didn’t come out today, as he hates Arawana.

Paul, on the other hand, loves it.

See?

Although this shot of Panama is the pic of the day for sure.

6 feet to sniper tranny? Paul’s all over it.

…and this trickster log ride.

..and this drop too.

Stophe was always in front, so not too many shots.

We played with this skinny for while, so even Pierre gets a pic today (he’s terribly camera shy).

We all put our pants on one leg at a time, see?

The OC — Pt 2

Arawana day, and we had a new guide for this one. This is Gabe. Hi Gabe…

Arawana is quite the collection of cunning stunts. Here’s Jack getting out cunned.

Jimmy has a tendency to make skinny stuff look easy.

Jerk.

Jack’s first road gap. He’s making this one look easy.

Everyone hit Bud Height. Ryan had a rough landing or two, but it was all good.

Some cheesy bluebird air shots.

Even Jack didn’t want to hit this one. Such a stupid landing…

We got three laps in , despite my forgetting the keys to the van at the bottom. Here we are during the retrieval phase. Sucks, doesn’t it?

Band of Brothers – Pt. 2

First I have to wish my parents a Happy Anniversary. They’ve been married for a few hundred years or so now.

And now on to the riding….

Brian Park says “Hi!” to everyone at the NSMB.com forums.

We hit up Arawana today. Jason continued to learn how to ride mountain bikes. Here he is getting a lesson on Bud Height.

Ted was picture perfect under bluebird skies.

There’s some new stuff on Arawana, including a stupidly huge jump they call the Seperator (likely because it will seperate both your shoulders on landing). No pics of it this week, but I’m heading back there soon, so maybe next week. This is Chris on the jump just before it.

Ted gets a road gap. Courtenay isn’t impressed. Keep trying Ted.

Hey Matt, remembering those BMX skills yet?

For dessert we hooked up with Dax for a Rusty Muffler.

It’s a little more country than the other run. Hows the uphill boys?

Some stunts and stuff kept us interested.

Courtenay on another teeter.

We finished up at Hillside winery again, where we managed to offend everyone within hearing distance with foul language and filthy stories.

I guess four bottles of wine at the end of the day will do that to you.

And to finish the day?

Mmmmmmeat.
