Michigan Mountain Biking fella who has a fancy to drink red wine. Saturday, September 22, 2007. Beautiful weather, and the first night was spent at CMU in Mt. Pleasant. The best food of the whole event was on this first stop. A tent city was erected that night, with a lot of "butt crack of dawn". Early risers the following morning. Everyone in the event was really cool. 500 can sure lay some damage on the showers and washrooms! This was the toughest day for me of the entire trip. Posted by wino at 9:05 PM.

Aticama's Merlot (currently trashed on this vice - forgive my syntax). Relatively close to my house, there exists this large tree. The top of this tree resembles a hot air balloon. Tons of branches and leaves, and the upper half looks extremely healthy. Heres the thing (ya see). Fuck you for thinking it wouldn't last.
