most likely the tubes that went to your struts were folded over and froze shut. If that happens again just massage the black tubes a bit and they'll open up.

Might be a good idea to ride around others, guys. There's safety in numbers. Something happens there's someone there to assist.

Sounds like there was a sweet session on WBL today.

Maybe could've been a temporary twist in the LE. Maybe the cold didn't allow it untwist, then when it was warmed up it came undone?

Tighe: is that a case of synchronicity or what?

that was really weird man, too bad about that. you would have been really powered with your 11. Yeah, sorry i froze your hands off to help me with those lousy front lines. man, that ever happens again, and i will quit kiting. no no, just kidding. But that wasted so much time from my riding hours.

hey, wanna get out wedsneday if theres good wind? ill take a look at my schedule, and you do the same. maybe my dad can give me and you a ride over to WBL that day, and your dad or something can pick us up. that would be cool.
