Dark Horse 40 - News Flash

The 2009 Dark Horse 40 is in the books and boy was it a cooker this year. There will be more to follow in the upcoming race report. The heat and humidity were so bad riders were coming in with faces white with salt (and it was not from the margaritas being served at the aide station). For those that did make it the result of losing so many electorlytes were shocking. Here we see NECS member MacGyver before the start of the raceand here he is after finishing depleted of all salt reserves.Same MacGyver only he kept complaining about how his prostrate was flaring up like a tiki torch.

Hey New East Coast Syndicate,
a friend stumbled across this post from last year while searching for this years Darkhorse 40 results. I've gotta say, You really have some set of balls! Just who the hell do you think you are?
First you post my picture with that kind of deprecating humor without my knowledge or permission (yea, I'm the "after" guy in your post). and then, you allow two fairly non flattering comments be posted! Shame on you!
I have a pretty good sense of humor, and granted it's not the most flattering picture of me, but I finished the Freaking race that day. More than you can say about a lot of other younger guys!

So keep the sophomoric humor among yourselves, and take my picture down!
