This race was up in exclusive Marin. China Camp, one of the prettier courses was doubly blessed with beautiful weather. First it makes a flattish mile loop around bayland marshes and then goes in to the hillside oak forest for some tough climbing. Carlos will be glad to hear that our esteemed opponent, Wheezer Man, from the River City Rebels, was there. Hoping to avoid Carlos’ attention, he sang a new tune:
-chorus-
Heyyou!
Heyyou!
Heyyou!
(pause)
-verse one-
Wheet!
(pause)
Blurrrr!
(pause)
-repeat chorus-
-verse two-
Wheet!
(pause)
HEYYAH!
(pause)
Adding to the color was Empire’s Sampson DeFeet. He was found tiptoeing through the tullies; being closely trailed by Cisco. The Spartans were again two men short of filling a 40’s team. In the 40’s were Brian Conroy, hobbling Nick Butterfield, with 50’s Francisco Verduzco filling in. The 50’s team was led by Sal Martinez followed by Paul Tjogas, Art Sanchez and Jerome Woehl. Our lovely, all female cheer team, led by Sacramento Teri and her clanging cow bell, pushed us to spectacular Spartan finishes.
