  1. Miles Todd and I were on one team of four, while Bill Porter (MTBBill) was on another team of four
    for this race and I shot this video on my second pre-ride with Bill (the camera had issues the first
    time when there were more people, but this way we get to enjoy that much more Mr. Porter!)

    Miles makes an appearance at the end (he's the very road looking fellow on the green SS).

    thanks to Mr. Porter for hosting this video for me in an attempt to keep sony Imagestation from
    shutting the account down.

    Try my website first at geocities.comrides.html but if my very expensive, high
    dollar web hosting service shuts you out, download the video from this link on Bill's site
    mountainbikebill.com24hrTemecula.mpg

    Either way, please download the file first and don't stream it.

    My team ended up in 7th place out of 30 teams (16th place overall) but that genetic freak Tinker
    Juarez still beat us all by himself! We did 20 laps on the 11.5 mile course featuring 1900 feet of
    climbing per lap. Bill's team came in a very respectable 12th place considering two of his teammates
    had never done a 24 hour race before. Of course, we did lap his team..........

    Nobody on either team got hurt and to the best of my recollection nobody suffered any major
    mechanical issues out on the course either so that by itself is a success.

    No, he didn't. We did one more lap than he did. Of course, he passed on the opportunity to take that
    20th lap (he had time to do it), and he might have beaten us if he did, BUT HE DIDN'T. So there.
