Had to jump in on this Silver Hill thing... First, AtoA was an incredible experience, looking out my office window, I see it raining...I still have nightmares of rain! And, what is it I see that the race is actually closer to 88miles, not 85?? Jeez, it felt like 100!! My knees just started hurting for the first time in my life.

Well, Silver Hill. Whoopie. There is a little hill up near the Ocoee river (SE TN) that we used to run, regularly getting clocked by our blocker car at 40-45MPH. I actually lost it one time, hitting the asphalt at or near 40...lost 1.5+sq feet of skin and ate Demoral for 5 days. But anyway, Silver Hill in 5 wheel K2 Voodoos with 80mm/81a, Blackhole ABEC 5s, and full tuck felt no more then 35. I never felt any kind of speed. But, then again, I prob. wasn't feeling anything at the time. Well, 11 days later and still can't get my left foot into my sk8s. Hopefully this wkend. Keep on rolling and look out for cars!

Peace
Tim
