The course turned out to be 3 miles shorter this year making it even 100 miles.  The first section of gravel was as loose and sandy as the year before, and it was every bit of an all out 7-mile effort: cross race within a long road race.  The long road section before Block House Hill was fairly breezy.  This is where the Chump unfortunately flatted out of the main group.  He managed to catch back on to the back of another chase group in order to finish the day.  Block House Hill was all but the same if you don't count the ten yards of deep sand.  El Guapo made a respectable attempt to get through this section but even he had to dismount after falling over on his ass.  Good old Tunica Trace had some freshly laid gravel for the hardest climb.  El Guapo dropped his group at this section, which included a familiar Big Shark lady that had snubbed his hello earlier in the day.  Unfortunately, El Guapo busted his shifter on the trace and would have to finish the race in his little ring from there.  Poor kid.  Even with the 20 mile spin back to town, he placed well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.lambra.org/results/2010/rouge10_r.htm"&gt;Results&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/S5repEX9jjI/AAAAAAAAArs/TW59G4zQedM/s1600-h/DSCN0714.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/S5repEX9jjI/AAAAAAAAArs/TW59G4zQedM/s320/DSCN0714.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5447911496388283954" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3717244903036145961-4728638887289461901?l=heckawee.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://heckawee.blogspot.com/feeds/4728638887289461901/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://heckawee.blogspot.com/2010/03/rouge-roubaix-2010.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3717244903036145961/posts/default/4728638887289461901'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3717244903036145961/posts/default/4728638887289461901'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://heckawee.blogspot.com/2010/03/rouge-roubaix-2010.html' title='Rouge Roubaix 2010'/><author><name>Heckawee</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11990737813975203336</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/ScL90aFGWBI/AAAAAAAAABg/tRJDqTsSaac/S220/DSCN0071.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/S5qimNVSjfI/AAAAAAAAArk/U-gWkHsBieo/s72-c/DSCN0637.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3717244903036145961.post-1158484379662253450</id><published>2010-03-04T21:16:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2010-03-05T09:32:52.625-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Bikes of Heckawee: Team Smoothie</title><content type='html'>&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: pointer" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5445015628678048290" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/S5CU3YfOKiI/AAAAAAAAAq8/AW7JNRJXqIc/s320/DSCN0562.JPG" /&gt;Behold the Heckawee Team Bike for the 2010 road and crit season.

But not just any road race: Froze Toes! The stupid, windy, cold, too-far-to-drive, crashfest race where all the area roadies start their season's gamefacing shenanigans of trying to drop you at registration with a quick gay-bar stare. If that doesn't work and you're still on their wheel, they'll try in the public grade school's shitter while squeezing out their nervous bowel syndrome of granola and whole-wheat garlic pasta. Neither worked on Heckawee and Heckawee in fact had a pretty damn good time out there at that horrible race. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chump raced the P,1,2,3s and held on for dear life in a heavy wind as the group put in a monster effort to chase done the leaders that got away to start lap 2.

A slight scare happened last night when the Chief thought he was going to have to put &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Guapo&lt;/span&gt; on his shoulder and haul him and two bikes out of the forest after &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Guapo&lt;/span&gt; had torn his rear derailleur off his bike. Good news: Chief realized &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Guapo&lt;/span&gt; could walk. Bad news: no word on the whereabouts of &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Guapo&lt;/span&gt; or &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Molteni&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Heckawee&lt;/span&gt; also sent a scouting mission to Rio &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_7" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;de&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_8" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Janeiro&lt;/span&gt; to explore the possibilities of setting up a &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_9" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Heckawee&lt;/span&gt; base camp there. The results of this mission have been mostly positive with a number of complexities. First off, the roads are not safe for bicycles. Period. Crazy Brazilians, whether behind the wheels of city buses, &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_10" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;VW&lt;/span&gt; buses, taxis, or Fiat's powered by natural gas, believe holding a steering wheel automatically gives them Emerson &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_12" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Fittipaldi&lt;/span&gt; status and drive as such no matter if they're in a dark tunnel, open road, or up a winding mountain road. So since &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_13" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Heckawee&lt;/span&gt; likes dirt, this is very positive. &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_14" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Heckawee&lt;/span&gt; will ride the trails, but be prepared to get the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_15" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;heart rate&lt;/span&gt; up in the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_16" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;forests&lt;/span&gt; near Rio. If the trail is flat enough to ride easy, look out for men with guns, because it's probably part of a &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_17" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;favela&lt;/span&gt;. If the trail is more remote, it'll likely be going straight up or straight down. It'll be good for &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_18" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;cyclocross training. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First thing &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_19" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Heckawee&lt;/span&gt; will notice about Rio, even before they watch the toilet water drain counter clockwise, is the seasons are reversed. So this will be good for &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_20" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Heckawee&lt;/span&gt; to setup it's Summer &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_21" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;cyclocross&lt;/span&gt; training camp in Rio during Winter. Though some of &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_22" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Heckawee&lt;/span&gt; may not like the Winter beach weather in Rio, they will adjust quickly to the 60 and 70 degree temps. During Summer in Rio, you're crazy to be in the woods on a bike. Get off it and go to the beach, have a beer, and have a look around, &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_23" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;dumbfuck&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_24" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Heckawee&lt;/span&gt; will like the diet as the only commonly seen vegetable served is black beans cooked with various hams. &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_25" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Mangos&lt;/span&gt; and papayas are as available as the fresh coconut water sold on every street corner. And the quest to find the perfect pineapple gives you ample opportunities to eat many excellent pineapples. &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_26" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Cafezinhos,&lt;/span&gt; or &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_27" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;espresso,&lt;/span&gt; are served throughout the day, everywhere. For the main course, most are served family style so here's a picture of two dishes meant to serve two:&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5423749093746858066" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/S0UHEIOg2FI/AAAAAAAAAo8/G6z7IgnrlT8/s320/meat.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5423749095957444770" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/S0UHEQdjuKI/AAAAAAAAApE/29xz2ZBjIGc/s320/mocota.jpg" /&gt;So as long as the Chief can locate some greens to keep himself regular, &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_28" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Heckawee&lt;/span&gt; bellies will have &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_29" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;happytimes&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As for &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_30" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;beverages&lt;/span&gt;, there is Brazilian wine, but under no circumstances should any &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_31" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Heckawee&lt;/span&gt; drink it. There are many options for &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_32" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;bood&lt;/span&gt; light though, as Brazilian beer companies, like &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_33" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Skol&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_34" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;Antarctica&lt;/span&gt;, have perfected the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_35" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;bood&lt;/span&gt; light recipe and put it into cans, both tall and short, that are sold to you for about a dollar anywhere you breathe air in public. And for a sugary nightcap or morning &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_36" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;kickstart&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_37" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;caipirinhas&lt;/span&gt; are a excellent choice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_38" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Heckawee&lt;/span&gt; is making plans for its Summer/Winter &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_39" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;cyclocross&lt;/span&gt; training camp this July.

Happy times. At about 5:45 last evening, the wind pushed from the north and today keeps pushing, holding temps steady at 31. With less than a week till the shortest day of the year, which will also signal the start of longer days again, Heckawee looks to ward off any unfriendly viruses. Already this fall, Heckawee has had 3 cases of the Swine Flu or Yellow Fever or something. ROY Will, Guapo, and the Professor all fell to nasty cases that kept them from sharing their peace pipes for weeks. Recent reports have it that the Professor is still quarantined and has sent out for Big Dale to deliver a few bottles Cave Creek. Let's hope the Professor can pull through this before Jackoffs is out of business. So even Heckawee needs to be reminded this time of year to take care of their health. &lt;a href="http://www.cyclingnews.com/features/winter-wars-boosting-your-immunity"&gt;Cyclingnews&lt;/a&gt; borrowed and published old Heckawee immunity boosting techniques like eating Magic Mushrooms and growing your own herbs &lt;a href="http://www.cyclingnews.com/features/winter-wars-boosting-your-immunity"&gt;(#9 &amp;amp; #15&lt;/a&gt;), both of which have kept Heckawee exploring gravel roads all the cold seasons to date. Remember to embrace these techniques and be careful of any slimy-redneck-pig-fuckers.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3717244903036145961-324108808781473414?l=heckawee.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://heckawee.blogspot.com/feeds/324108808781473414/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://heckawee.blogspot.com/2009/12/immunity-to-shiftyness.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3717244903036145961/posts/default/324108808781473414'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3717244903036145961/posts/default/324108808781473414'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://heckawee.blogspot.com/2009/12/immunity-to-shiftyness.html' title='Immunity to Shiftyness'/><author><name>Heckawee</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11990737813975203336</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/ScL90aFGWBI/AAAAAAAAABg/tRJDqTsSaac/S220/DSCN0071.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3717244903036145961.post-940529624805330947</id><published>2009-12-14T10:49:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-14T12:37:48.570-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Heckawee Year-End Pow-wow!</title><content type='html'>Heckawee year-end awards pow-wow was held Friday at the newly appointed President Molteni's house.

No word yet if everyone will be allowed to enter the home or if we'll hang out in the driveway. This will be a bring-your-own-beverage affair. Good Heckawee brave will also bring a dish to share with fellow Heckawee. The Chief is also volunteering his time to pick up some local southern bbq pork, which should make everyone happy. There will also be inspirational cookies that Guapo will be sampling. Yes, Guapo has been found alive and semi-conscious after a long journey took him somewhere. Awards will be presented, which will include but not be limited to:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Rookie of the Year (Men's &amp;amp; Women's), &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Epic Ride of the Year, &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Most Improved, &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;New BBQ of the Year, &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Silo-Stop of the Year, &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&amp;amp; Most Valuable Heckawee.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;Of course, feel free to bring your own awards. We'll also be collecting canned goods for the local food pantry. See you there!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Be sure to check out Coach modeling his new Heckawee jersey on a cyclocross movie set he created for his &lt;a href="http://mikemagnuson.blogspot.com/"&gt;blog&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5412989582054410866" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/Sx7NWHs-SnI/AAAAAAAAAMw/KBTIWxPuJ6M/s320/coach2.bmp" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3717244903036145961-6098620054601141751?l=heckawee.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://heckawee.blogspot.com/feeds/6098620054601141751/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://heckawee.blogspot.com/2009/12/wwmd.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3717244903036145961/posts/default/6098620054601141751'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3717244903036145961/posts/default/6098620054601141751'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://heckawee.blogspot.com/2009/12/wwmd.html' title='WWMD'/><author><name>Heckawee</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11990737813975203336</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/ScL90aFGWBI/AAAAAAAAABg/tRJDqTsSaac/S220/DSCN0071.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/Sx7L8zJHV_I/AAAAAAAAAMo/f_YhuDgdjh4/s72-c/coach.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3717244903036145961.post-6077896078773743288</id><published>2009-12-07T13:08:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-07T21:11:42.910-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Storming State Champs &amp; Chopping Beef!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/Sx3f4rVy_TI/AAAAAAAAAMY/tjO3CexKcaM/s1600-h/DNeis-LFMTPP-chicrosscup-montrose-107%282%29.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/Sx3f4rVy_TI/AAAAAAAAAMY/tjO3CexKcaM/s320/DNeis-LFMTPP-chicrosscup-montrose-107%282%29.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5412728491969019186" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/Sx1z1ql1JxI/AAAAAAAAAL4/PLK74avwDrs/s1600-h/CCC%40.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 320px; display: block; height: 214px;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5412609692972427026" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/Sx1z1ql1JxI/AAAAAAAAAL4/PLK74avwDrs/s320/CCC%40.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;No, Heckawee did not return with any State Championship belts this year. Their presence was felt in the Masters 30+, 50+, and 4B races. The course suited the fast and technically skilled as despite the mostly frozen dry terrain, racers were regularly falling on their asses. &lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tippingpointphoto/4164884809/in/set-72157622826725381/"&gt;Chief &lt;/a&gt;&amp;amp; &lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tippingpointphoto/4164937117/in/set-72157622826725381/"&gt;Dave &lt;/a&gt;both finished 12th in their races and were as prepared as they could have been in the 33-degree and breezy lakefront course. Their performance came after the Chief had an unfortunate misshap with the waffle maker in the morning and had to go with the French toast sticks. No worries though, gamefaces were on. Gary finished a strong 40th--no word yet if he had any Polish Sausage handups in the sand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So out beyond the Rockies on the Pacific, Coach Magnuson pinned on a number and proved that his time away has been good to him--&lt;a href="http://mikemagnuson.blogspot.com/"&gt;8th place&lt;/a&gt;! Congratulations! He will be racing and recruiting more Heckawee on December 20th. Apparently, cyclocross season never ends in southern California due to the seasons never changing! Heckawee finds this to be an ideal match for the Coach as he never enjoyed the falling leaves or budding trees.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Heckawee still waits for pictures of the Coach in kit so here is another from the state champs:&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 320px; display: block; height: 214px;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5412609705277514482" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/Sx1z2Ybl4vI/AAAAAAAAAMI/1zyFpQOc8Fc/s320/CCC.JPG" border="0" /&gt;Beef chopping. Three Sox fans went searching for beef sandwiches in Wrigleyville after the State Champs and found a promising location that suited their tastes and desires. They found that looks can be deceiving, especially in Wrigleyville, and what looks to be a good lineup may not make it to June. This beef certainly looks good in the field:&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 320px; display: block; height: 240px;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5412609696227569858" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/Sx1z12t6sMI/AAAAAAAAAMA/of50432EyRQ/s320/beef.jpg" border="0" /&gt;But not in jeans.

Heckawee brave think Chief should go back to inspiration. As Heckawee readys for State, they think about base layers, snoring drugs, stadium horns, cowbells, and the chicken marsala at the Olive Garden. Oh, the pageantry. Too bad it's gotta be an out and back. The Mystery Machine will be in a drive thru for beef sandwhiches before the protest period ends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Molteni's out. Gary's in but pondering the circus of the &lt;a href="http://cxmagazine.com/4b-cyclocross-madness-explodes-in-illinois"&gt;race&lt;/a&gt; he's registered for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No snow or rain is in the forecast though the temps should be hovering around the freezing mark. So Heckawee wonders whether to build a fire inside the Mystery Machine or if electric ice fishing socks really work. It's eerily quiet. It's serious: The Professor had to share a bottle with the founder, Mullison. Gameface is on. &lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 213px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5411500828799730034" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/SxmDVRpXAXI/AAAAAAAAALw/LCZ6NHPmnRs/s320/MND_2476.JPG" /&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 213px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5411500540252243922" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/SxmDEeuRx9I/AAAAAAAAALo/hMjmlX4HnTw/s320/MND_2470.JPG" /&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3717244903036145961-5247327706582827622?l=heckawee.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://heckawee.blogspot.com/feeds/5247327706582827622/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://heckawee.blogspot.com/2009/12/put-on-your-gameface.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3717244903036145961/posts/default/5247327706582827622'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3717244903036145961/posts/default/5247327706582827622'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://heckawee.blogspot.com/2009/12/put-on-your-gameface.html' title='Put on your Gameface.'/><author><name>Heckawee</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11990737813975203336</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/ScL90aFGWBI/AAAAAAAAABg/tRJDqTsSaac/S220/DSCN0071.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/SxmDVRpXAXI/AAAAAAAAALw/LCZ6NHPmnRs/s72-c/MND_2476.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3717244903036145961.post-3949191455334568618</id><published>2009-12-03T13:35:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-03T14:17:13.690-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Night riding, State Cross, &amp; Year-End Awards Pow-wow</title><content type='html'>Due to the likelihood of cowboy rednecks hunting deer into the night, the thursday night ride is gonna stick to the roads less traveled.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Mystery Machine is departing for an overnight out and back to the state champ race this weekend. So far Heckawee should be represented in at least 3 categories. The &lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_P9hIJDIDcHY/SkBG3ycfzSI/AAAAAAAAAII/ChdO7CwEjOM/s1600-h/DSCN0190.JPG"&gt;Coach&lt;/a&gt; is still confirming he'll be pinning up the western Heckawee for the first time in two seasons. Sprinkle some dust in your peace pipe and the ash on oatmeal for his good luck and healthy result. The state race is the Heckawee Nationals this year and word is that the Chief turned to the &lt;a href="http://naturalmedicine.suite101.com/article.cfm/the_master_cleanse"&gt;Master Cleanse &lt;/a&gt;this week--let's hope the spirits protect Nurse Shirley. Washboard Dave has been frying baked cod while Molteni is on strict diet of Mary Lou's biscuits and gravy.  Gary is eating glass and tile.  Guapo is MIA after chasing the wild horses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Spare ribs are on the menu for the year-end pow wow... As well as Gigondas. Official date is still TBA.

The character is your attitude. The attitude not to whine and cry about being soaked on your day out. The attitude to not try to hurt yourself or your buddies in order to get home a little bit sooner. Really, a sign of good character building is to wait until the ride is over to make fun of your buddy (Molteni) for soiling his bibshorts somewhere while going up Rhine Road. Jesus, dude, that wasn't sand.
