'Family'
On 6/13/2007 PSR wrote in from United States  (75.69.nnn.nnn)

Just how strong the bonds are was very apparent when the EMT's needed help getting Mr. Auld onto a backboard. He was 'resting' on a downed birch, but a good 11 ft. downslope from the roadway. Everyone pitched in. Things by the pulloff just came to a stop, and suddenly there were plenty of helping hands to get Dave into the ambulance. He kept his cool, I don't know how, and helped us getting him on the backboard [even cracking a joke about it not having wheels :-) ]. I'm keeping him in my prayers as well, and will try to stop by the hospital very soon (I'll bring a C.W. mag, gotta nix the beer tho).

Anyone who knows Dave oughta take a few minutes and send a card at the Least!

Or, give the hospital a call. I cut+pasted the addy from below (thanks Marcus!).

I was at the race and wish Dave the best in his recovery...that was a SCARY crash! Like someone there said - "Dave doesn't like to brake". Need MANY more hay bales next time up here!! Those guys were ripping it though - especially by the last two heats when those left on course had the lines wired.

I shot some photos of the event, which are available for viewing and purchase on my website: http://www.cloudtenweb.com/events/gmm/gmm_index.html

Gary,

I sent you an email to the address you forwarded through the IGSA site last week. You never responded? Send me an email to rietema_m@yahoo.com. My phone number is the same. I arrive in Stockholm July 2 and don't return to the States until August 2.

Having been one of the many people who help the Windsor EMT's get Rick outa the tree he landed-came-to-rest-upon, I really want to ask this of the Luging and Speedboard crowd...

Put Auld on your Prayer list. Just give him some extra support in healing, recovery, and peace of mind.

BTW, I'm Lutheran, but I really don't care how you pray (well, as long as it isn't to satan or money). The idea here is put some positive vibes out Dave's way, and encourage a healthy recovery.

Ascutney, Vermont
On 6/9/2007 PSR wrote in from United States  (75.69.nnn.nnn)

Today was a scary, fast, sneaker-smokin' day at Ascutney. Yet, the racers got the hill dialed, and put on a good show, and ran a fairly civil race (ok, one nudge-to-haybail). The bad news is with Dave Auld, who went off just past the third corner into the woods. He's got a broken leg, arm, and bad bruises. I'll get up to the Hospital Monday to at least say hi, and see how it's going. It wasn't a Flywheel kind of hill, more grip, less speed I think. The whole crew was great today though, racing their butts off, and dialing the hill in all day long. This is no 'Sunday cruise', rather a steep, twisty hill, with pitches in the 20% gradeint range. Hot shoes.
Kudos to the GSI crew who kept it rolling along, and kept it sane + real!

Also, Marc, good to See ya! :-D You're looking low + Fast! Be in touch...

IGSA California Downhill Series #5 Results
On 5/20/2007 Marcus Rietema wrote in from United States  (71.109.nnn.nnn)

Brian Lee of Salt Lake City, UT took his second consecutive victory over John Rogers at the California Downhill Series Finale held Saturday at Bonelli Park. Matt Thiede finished third and Justin Tolman was fourth. Lee seems to have figured out something about the Bonelli course that is giving him some increased speed the past two races. However, even with two consecutive victories, it wasn't enough for Lee to beat Rogers in the Championship. Rogers clinched his second consecutive California Downhill Series Championship with Lee a close second and Justin Tolman in third.

In Classic Luge it was Riley Meehan earning the victory over Matt Thiede and Justin Tolman. The seven riders all rode together in three heats to determine the winner. Tolman's third place finish was enough for him to earn the Series Championship. Riley Meehan finished the Championship in second and Scott Peer was third.

Junior Street Luge and Classic Luge was all about Christian Conaway and Kyle Castenada. Both of these junior racers are on fire and getting faster with each race. Conaway took the victories and Series Championships in both classes but Castenada was always close and pushing hard. In one of the heats the IGSA officials had to revert to video tape to confirm that Conaway had earned victory by only about two inches! Look for these two to resume their battle next season.

The IGSA would like to thank Sector 9, Random X Boardshop and SilverfishLongboarding.com for all of their generous support of the 2006-2007 California Downhill Series.

On Saturday April 28th, we had a nice turnout of street luges and classic luges for the fourth round of the IGSA California Downhill Series. Brian Lee was stoked to beat John Rogers and stand on the top of the street luge podium. In Classic luge, Justin Tolman took a narrow victory over a very impressive Christian Conaway. Christian has found a lot of speed over the winter. Watch out for this young gun! Thank you to all of the riders who attended and to our sponsors including Sector Nine, Random X skateshop, Rayne Longboards and One West Clothing, The season finale will be held on Saturday May 19th.

Gentlemen, there's nothing I'd like more than to hoist a toast to my good buddies and fellow racers and welcome them to their declining years... it's f#*king amazing they lived this long!!! But it's a tough time right now, home improvement has contractors and workers crawling all over my property and drooling at the sight of my wife and 21 year old daughter! I gotta stay close and the shotgun ready! Maybe later we can replay the Templin mondays and I'll host the bar! Till then, keep it rolling and as Digger would attest... "It's All Good!"
