The singlespeeders added their own brand of craziness to th TLBF! Here are some photos taken by Angelo Barretto... If anyone has more pics, kindly add to the thread First lap pics (aka getting to know the trail, palakihan ng mata, or bulaga!) Agu (32by18) on the VooDoo Dambala My brad Gerry (aka kuyajiri) on his Cannondale F29 1FG Mannito (manitou) on his Niner One9 Last lap (aka faster, faster, faster!) Going in hot, slight locking of the rear wheel for me Why is he smiling? Because the end is near hehe The course was bumpier than it looks. Check out Mannito's Reba - almost at full compression.

Funny thing is, I didn't notice he was there until he called out as I passed him. And in the first pic, it's only now that I noticed I cut it reeeaaal close with the lil bamboo stump!
Will ask if Angelo has more pics. Hope he caught King bare chested hehehehe

dang that looked like painful and fun at the same time.
then again, sometimes that equates to the same thing on an SS.
