HEY BANSH,DUDE I'VE GOT TO GIVE YOU A BROTHER
YOU WERE SO HUNGOVER,,,AND STILL MADE YOUR RUN. ......SC

It was great fun and I'm glad to have been a part of it and thanks slappy for the invite. I think I'm gonna start chroming my bike because everyone knows that each chromed part adds 5 to 10 horsepower!!!! Better look out at the next EPO, I'll be fast fo' sho'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks to all of those behind the scenes that helped put it together!!!

Take your plastics off! Extra 15 horses!

Yet another excuse i'll use for my poor showing. Thanks dude. More sleep, less drink next time.

It was tons of fun watching everybody run their race. I had a total blast. The track had every kind of obstacle, and it made for very close competition. Great job Mikey in taking home the #1 jersey.

I met some great new friends, and excellent riders. I know Esco was bummed at all of us EPO members at the hill for not beating that 250, but we aren't hill shooters Esco, we would have smoked that dude at the track .

Here are some more photos, and I have a bunch more.

Thank you everybody for helping put on a great event, and thank you Slappy for letting me build the track and organize. We even learned a little bit about the Desert Sand Verbena . I hope everybody enjoyed those pictures of the Verbena, complements of Slappy McDuner. And Slap, what a flaptabulous shirt you made for us.

I can't wait for the next one, I want the chance to get back the #1 jersey.

Here are a few more

And a few more

Thanks again Rob you did a great job!!

Man, those pics are funny! I was pretty So yeah, everyone have a good laugh God knows I sure was

You couldn't have asked for a better end to the season. The race was AWESOME and the river on Saturday was something that will be remembered for a loooooong time...

I would just like to thank Mr. Mcduner, Mr. Sampler, all of the EPO competitors, all of the support people who made this race possible, and the academy. That was TOO much fun.
When I first heard of the race in the dunes on a closed course, I thought they were nuts! (Or ). The track had every type of obstacle imaginable (could use a stadium whoop section next time). Everything was safe, and challenging, at the same time...wish I could say the same for some of the tracks I normally race on!
Everything went off without a hitch. Major props to the planners, designers, and shirt makers!

#7 through #1 I salute you You've given me something to train for next season.

#9 through #28 (and #36) Your work is cut out for ya...ther's nowhere to go but up! I applaud your efforts.

Slappy, I thank you for one of the funnest experiences I ever had in the dunes (The other ones aren't G rated). I am honored to have been chosen.

To everyone else, whenever you see the verbena bloom out there, remember it's a badge of pride for us verbena dash competitors....tread lightly.

EPO #8

looks like a great time, congrats to all.........
