[QUOTE="snowflake, post: 223295, member: 152"] A few months ago, while I was drinking a "few" after work, I saw that bikes were going to be back at the mint 400, so being slighty inebriated, I was like ok, I'll solo this thing in the pro moto iron man class (240 miles, like 90 miles further than I've ever gone before) and I was dead serious about it, the local ohv club stepped forward and paid for my entry fee, a dude whos a personal trainer started doing meal plans and daily exercises for me (for free) the local graphics company hooked me up with the sickkkk full custom just for this race, for free, a local who won all kinds of trophies in bitd gave me a shit load of free parts for ye olde yz, I've got race shirts on the way :O to sell for funds to help go race bigger and better, starting with the mint, its a lot of pressure, but I've been doing work outs and time on the bike best I can on top of my 60 hour work week. I am not going to do this the way most people who have the money to really do this do it, with multiple bikes, spending $850 on camping for the week, my pit crews will be volunteers that I'm still searching for, mostly close family and friends, right now I'm planning on camping in the pedo van in the main pits. But apparantely I motivate people, so I'm going to hammer out all 240 miles as best as my slow ginger ass can [/QUOTE]
