And in case you didn't notice, look for Banky in the picture below trying to slip away; noticed and attended to by some very fit, salty, and hungry men. No gifts! Not even in April Banky, you have got to earn it.
It was a night for the strong willed, yes the temperatures were high for April and the sun shined, but it could have very well been different and everyone knew it, hail and tornadoes were dancing all around us, but we seemed to stay locked into a protected cocoon of warmth and sun. Not to say it was all good, the winds were brutal and relentless it seemed in all directions but true north. 
As we entered Mason to see a funnel cloud to the west everyone was thankful for great weather and satisfied having made a tough ride. "The Professor", Cary Roseth had his switch and keep hitting everyone on the knuckles, ouch. Jeff and Wade were not far behind, fit and ready to put it in the air. Cary, Jeff, Loren, Wade, Banky and Nikita were at the front of nearly every sprint.
Well, another night at TNR, some day we will look back, but it won't be the racing or the training or the suffering for hours on end on our own that we will miss, it will be the few simple hours we spent among friends with a mutual sense of brotherhood and suffering we will miss.
