Hey, Michael, i'm glad you finally decided to post a time at that "cone processing" cyber slalom, i started it on riderz.net for that purpose (and to be different from the other website's cyber slalom) i still think it's a good training and it's more fun!! I'm pretty sure you'll beat my time quickly...

Theodore was a skateboarder, i wonder if he still rides sometimes.

I'm actually working on it John, it's such a good place to race,
garanteed crowds and good coverage. If you come to Montreal, let me know, i'd like to show you where on that street i'd like to race.
At the canadian gathering we talked about a 3 cities in 3 days race series, that could be fun too...
