The pictures were a great representation of the "Blackdog 2007". Thank you Tom, & Dan for your outstanding support to all of us d.s. riders. Without people like you we would not have a place to ride..... Sharon and I really feel badly for the riders that were injured this year. Please convey our best to them and their families.... NEVER FEAR CAPTAIN "JIMBO" WILL BE BACK NEXT YEAR.......AND ...... DON'T FORGET YOUR "POOPER" SCOOPER

Nice logging and I can't believe how much of a thrashing that camera takes, but what a great angle! And keep an eye on Spot's little head that bobs in and out of the sidecar.

Howdy Gary,
Thanks for checkin out my ride report. Spot, loves to ride, sometimes I worry that in his effort to see where we are going he will fall out. I have a leash attached to his harness but in a bad situation he could still possibly bounce out of the sidecar and then be hanging from the leash. I need to make some kind of clear but very well vented canopy for the hack, that way he can see what's going on and still be protected. If I don't take him with me, he pouts, seriously, when I come after leaving him when I ride he looks at me and then turns his back and looks the other way, he will do this for a bout an hour before he will again be my buddy. Darn dog, he's more spoiled then most kids.
