I just assumed "you got me" was in the context of "right on"--figured, anyone who'll quote the good Dylan in his underline would know the source of my babble.

Not to start a whole "Pablo is Dead" conspiracy theory thread or nothin'...

Duffy. I read everything you put on the blog. I understand none of it, but I feel that i must keep reading them. Holding on to the smallest of hope that once just once I will understand what your saying.
I wish I knew you back in the 60's . Peace out brother.................Roger

Roger, if you ever actually do Get it, please PM me an explanation. Me, I just figure I should settle for being, like, Nesta with perfect spelling.

Progress continues. Bodies in the works, motors almost done breaking in and frames gettin soldered.

Working on shirts for the event. Plan is to have the Enduro Logo on the front and all 8 teams on the back. Once confirmed they can be done, I will let you know so you can PRE-ORDER THEM. You can then pick them up and pay fr them the day of the race. They will be reasonably priced.
