A pax of thirteen strong braved the Seal Team parking job to attend Shakedown’s birthday celebration beat down.

YHC (your humble correspondent) rose early Sunday morning in anticipation of the #SlothHill beatdown. A quick check of the Q schedule revealed this morning’s leader would be Scully. YHC found this a little strange (Scully was in Milwaukee the day prior watching his son and the Dodgers beat the Brewers in game 2); however, the assumption (never assume) was made that he must have caught a flight back after the game (the game was in the afternoon). This was not the case as was discovered while gathered around the shovel flags. YHC and SubMac proceeded with a hot potato. Side…
Hurricane Michael did a number on the Gulf Coast, that’s for sure. Remnants of the storm came to visit us late in the week but mercifully left quickly. What looked to be a morning on the fire roads miraculously turned into a singletrack day, mostly dry but with a bunch of trees down. At 0800, it was shaping up to be a one man show. Roper’s still broken. Pullout was out: he’s a tree pro, so he was probably doing tree pro things, what with a bunch of trees down, and Profit had to break in a new mower. None…

YHC and Mudface did our usual 3 miles, him rucking and YHC slacking. Didn’t see anyone else in the gloom, apologies if we missed you. Mumblechatter was about our looking forward to the cooler temps and other things. It’s also getting to be the time where we’ll need the headlamp just to keep from falling over roots et. al. as we traverse the trails. As usual, I have No Idea what I’m doing.
