La Carrera: All Over, Including The Shouting

th 29025 L1030705 122 408lo

Well, you wins some and you loses some.

On the fourth day of racing, after kicking ass at Mil Cumbres, we were in 3rd place overall. By the Servicio in the middle of the fifth day, we were in a mechanico trying desperately to fix a busted valve train, and officially out of the race. Shit.

It’s a drag to be sure, but I’ve had such an amazing time that I really shouldn’t complain. I will definitely be back next year.

I’m in a motel in El Paso right now, on my way home. I’ll be posting a full day-by-day report on the race, with mucho pictures, as soon as I return to more reliable internetitude. Buenos Noches!
