Don...I was the Clydesdale rider who took you out today...

Well - it finally happened. After five years of standing on muddy slopes and blind corners one of you finally took me out.

You've come close to smacking me in the head with your rear wheels on run-ups on many occasions but this time you got me!

The award goes to Matthew Lasala of Bend Bike N Sport

"Don...I was the Clydesdale rider who took you out today on a muddy turn at Estacada...I really hope you and your equipment are OK...I love the pic of me right before I slammed into you and will be buying it!...that is a view rarely obtained!"

Matthew had to veer about 5 feet off course to "get" me but neither of us went down.

Shane Young of Oregon Velo got the raw end of the deal.

The ordeal knocked over Shane's remote flash that he had just got meticulously positioned.

If you guys take this as a challenge for next week please practice on Shane. :)

It took me several races to get it working right again. All in the search of the perfect photo.
Don I think you may have paid him.
