I saw some XC jumps I recognized in one of your posts, were you at Greater Dayton HT last May? We were there, it was our first XC course ever.

You get one foot corrected and the other 3 go in a completely different direction. It feels like riding one of these, haha: http://s166.photobucket.com/user/guenny_guen/media/LG%20Incubator%20Box/Water_Snake.jpg.htmlJenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04292565760924146966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846330497859393721.post-76677411862231790182014-01-15T21:22:48.451-05:002014-01-15T21:22:48.451-05:00I just started following your blog.
