Nevada Dave - Meltdown 2009
Photo Credit: “Rusty” Subject: Nevada Dave

I was incredibly unfortunate and unable to attend or participate in the Palos Meltdown this year. I was pretty bummed about it and spent the weekend shying away from wanting to know updates and catching up with my Bonebellin’ brethren in the excitement. Nevada Dave talked me into hitting up a local t-shirt maker to whip up some snazzy DIY t-shirts. Nevada was so excited – he claimed he was gonna rock the t-shirt on the course.

I knew he wasn’t gonna let the ‘Bell down. He rocked out the t-shirt and denim shorts into 23rd place. He did it for the everyman – to inspire everyone to just get out and do it – ride what you got, ride it hard, and ride for the fun of it. Race reports forthcoming from the crew. Thank you C.A.M.B.r for a truly Chicago MTB Championship event. Check out the race chatter here.

To all the teams that rocked it – good lord y’all look good and fast in the pictures!! CX season awaits us!

    Those denim shorts are the one thing that kept me going. There was no way i was losing to a dude wearing cutoff denim shorts.
