GREAT NEWS ON THE KNEE, THANKS DOC DENT.

Charlie Brown checks out "independence" on our Colorado National Monument ride yesterday.

When you ride bikes with a large group of knuckle heads who are in their mid life faze of refusing to slow down on their bikes because we all believe we are immortal, it is very important to befriend a doc to join your group so he is always available on an as needed basis. Enter into the picture Doc Ed Dent, one of our riding buddies who also happens to be our local general practioner...man has this guy saved the day for us on many occassions. From the road bike pile up on Hwy 6 in Gypsum when he was summonsed to come patch and stitch up Johnny Danger and the boys, to the late night X-rays of Aimen's broken hand when he wrecked on his Mt Bike in the Maze....Doc Ed has saved the day many a time, god bless him.

Having lost sleep last night because my knee felt jacked up while making all of these crazy crackling noises as well as being quite painful when I was going through routine stretching, and fearing the worst, I went to see Doc today and after pulling on and twisting the knee I racked in Sunday's Boulder CX race....he assured me I'm OK...perfect!
Back to Boulder next weekend for Redline and Boulder Cup racing. This time with the Master's crew.
