Somewhere east of the Saleve......we found cooked Zulu

Ride summary:
- Ref.....see DOH report. And you are wondering why we keep making fun of you?
- The explorer award: Boumboum.....only he can come up with a ride like this; single track, fences, farmland, gardens, little bush trails, cows, the middle of nowhere, etc. +1 point.
- We ride until we die approach: Boumboum......3h35 and 38km during a night ride. The man prefers pedaling over food! No limits.....! I did not my light lasted that long......
- The weakest link: Cooked Zulu for sure......after the first climb already!?
- The missing link: Dopey for preparing Zulu's broken chain and providing those necessary parts (the link) to get him home. +1 point. Zulu give your 29er some love and care! Lube the chain and bring the needed parts (tube, chain link, etc.) to get to the end of a ride.....Spares damn it!!
- Labrico......Quote;"I knew you would be there so I pedaled like crazy to be on time"!.....all sweaty and smiling......

  1. ... he admits to being cooked with a small side order of "not well-prepared", but it's clear that when it's only the 29ers out on the ride, he never complains and always gets to the end. Points for stamina/stupidity?
