FInal Exam Jam 2007

Sam I Am

This is the Jam coverage that never ends, man. Seriously, I spent a LOT of time sitting in that parking lot.


Kent Pearson:


I really don't know what kid's doin, but it looks hard.


Dowker (what's his first name again? Arturo? Guillermo?) brought the Monkey Brains. Funny thing, I just found out that Dowker is from Peterborough, Ontario Canada. I actually briefly dated a girl who went to SFFC (Peterborough has two things, a college and a retirement home) and have kept in touch with a few people from there. Small world.


If memory serves this cat is "The Elusive Andrew" or "Honky" if you will (look reeeeal close at his top tube). Way to rock the old school racial epithet! I believe that's Rob Christianson (sin? sson? sen?) rocking the bro-cam behind him.

I was originally impressed by this guy because he appeared older than me and anybody older than me who's laying it down gets my respect. Then I realized that he was Bryan Huffman and I realized I already respected him for that time he made fun of Tim Mirra in the back of Ride. Not really. I mean, he did make fun of Tim Mirra, but come on, that was like the easiest target he could've picked. Aim higher Bryan, aim higher.

I really should just get a videocamera for flat comps. Even at three frames a second I missed the action here. Look at the picture above and look at this one, something happened between them. Figure it out, if you do I'll give you a gold star or maybe a cookie.

The giant Red Bull hat in the preceding photo was owned by this guy. Since he was shirtless all day I feel safe in saying if Red Bull gave him wings they were in his pants. I had no intentions of checking THAT out.

You ever wonder what a bunch of guys sitting around at a flat jam looks like?
Yeah, me neither.

I don't remember what prompted me to shoot pictures portrait instead of landscape. Maybe I got caught up in the new vertical grip. Maybe it was that it had worked well for me before. Maybe I'm just a hack. Yellow Bike Guy stretched out like a mofo.

You know how in my write-up for the Twilight Jam I kept making fun of Kent's age? Yeah, he's only 13 months older than me, so I'm the age now that he was then. Oh karma, you cruel, cruel bizznatch. Also, seriously, what is this guy doing?
