ha, that's not much recovery time..

knowing how to pull off an efficient dirtbag weekend is definitely an acquired skill haha. buddy just got an awesome sprinter van so we'll be trying that for the first such weekend next month.

who is he going to be riding for?

the town we live in is putting in a bike park with a pump track and skill course etc right next to the existing skate park. walking distance from our house. going to have to get a slopestyle and try not to kill myself

I am a natural-born dirtbag... my wife... not so much.

GT is his bike sponsor and has been for the last couple of years (he rides a lot of BMX as well). He's been racing enduro on a Force, but he's going to switch to a Sensor this year because the Force seems to be overkill for a lot of the enduros he's been racing and the Sensor is a quicker bike when pedaling.

Pump tracks are so freaking awesome. Great work out and awesome for learning skills that will translate onto the trail.

I bought a Toyota Sequoia specifically for bike racing. 1st gen were fairly cheap for a Toyota. It has a large flat load floor when you pull the seats out. Built a platform for a fridge and some pre-made plastic shelves behind the seats. Two 25" wide tri fold memory foam mattresses to sleep on. You can even fold them up to make a chair in the back. Throw a cargo box on the top for soft goods and bike gear. We slept in it last year at Tennessee Nationals and stayed warm.
