PROOF

I'd like to tell this story through photos:
It was a tough day at the Crankworx Colorado cross country race, with steep climbs and knarly descents....








But, I finished unscathed and in 2nd place .

And to my extreme excitement the top finishers were awarded prize money...in the form of big checks.

Gimmee, gimmee....

Yes indeed. Big check=big time big deal
