The Day The Music Died!

The worst thing that could happen finally happened, I killed my best friend by backing into Moldova's car the other night. I was on the way to go night riding with Pinnitt and BOOM! I have had a hard time knowing that I am responsible for what happened to S-Works. Why though, why....Why did he have to go away from us, why like that. Not now he was to young to die. Well now the only thing to do is keep him in our memories, because he was an amazing friend to us all. Luckliy I have been busy with work so I have not had time to think about him and how much I miss him. They told me to have a day off of work, but what would I do if I did that. Sit at home and think about what had transpired over the past few days, NO! Well thanks to all the friends who have helped me through this. King of Pisgah, gave me an old stumpjumper frame to replace S-Works. We put a lot of the old parts from S-Works on the stumpjumper. I guess if you try to look at the silver lining you see with death their is new life. I already see a lot in the stumpjumper that reminds me of S-Works, and that brings a much needed smile to my face. Well anyways, next time your on the trail riding with your bro's don't forget to stop and have a moment of rememberance for S-Works because we all know riding was his favortie thing to do. Be Young, Be Foolish, and Be Happy!

S-Works for life!

WORK WORK WORK

Well today was my first day in what some may call the real world. I got a job doing construction work. Up at the butt crack of dawn to slave for about 9 to 10 hours a day, man I really wish that guy from pivot cycles would just call and give me a job. Anyways the day went by pretty fast because we were busy the whole time, which is good for me. After work me and the guys gathered for a night ride full of AWSOME. We went out to Dupont for some ridgeline fun. It was an awsome end to a landmark day in the life of Gatling Gun. Thank God I have S-Works to help me through the rock gardens.


Peace Out . . . Because I got to get up early for work.
Yuck, I don't like the sound of that!

S-Works in snow, not on ice!

I decided to take the day of from not working and go for a cold ride with my boy S-Works. We meet at the fish hatchery for some caney bottum action. We took it easy and had a blast, singing the new hit song Scraper Bike all the way up and down the trail. There was still snow on the ground and a few ice patches that almost sent me sliding to the ground. It was about 30F during the ride so it was a cold one. It was amazing out there in the snow. I took a few mental images to share since I did not have a camera availible. So close your eyes and imagine, images will be sent to you through telekenisis. All in all it was a great ride, fun in the woods. Then it was to the shop to hang out wiht the boys. Another great day in Pisgah!

Remember an awsome year, 2007!
















A Christmas Story!

Well lets see. . . Went home to Suffolk for the last time, we spent the holidays moving to Greensboro NC only after recieving the same book for christmas two years in a row. We were joined by the Pinnitt Brotha's, the Motley Crue, and Sexy for the move. After driving a huge truck back and forth between houses we got my parents stuff put into a storage unit, they will be moving into the new house on the 18th of the new year. After a good time moving the Motley Crue peaced out like a freight train and the Pinnitt Brotha's joined sexy and myself, Gatling Gun, for a party fulled night in chapel thrill. Me and the Pinnitt Brotha's mounted up and partied up and straight rocked out with our cock out. We ended up in some techno dance club with sexy and some other ladies. ALRIGHT. After dancing holes in our socks we headed for some midnigght time out grill where we got our munch on only to return to our host house at 4 o'clock in da moarnin'. The next day we took it easy in Chapel Chill, just taking in the sights. It was a great visit, checking out one of the coolest bike shop i had ever seen, Performance, where I proceded to forget to flush after my constitutional, OOPS! Well anyway, we are all back in the 828 to bring in the new year. Deciding not to go on the group rode ride, I called up ole S-Works and we fired up long branch with sexy only to realize this is going to be another epic year in the lives of Gattis and The S-Works.

For your viewing pleasure, here are a few recap pictures from our shenanigans!
