(This is what Schmidty and I will be raging this weekend)

I have been trying for days to upload the mobile picture I took on our Monday ride. Here is the story:

Schmidty, Jesse, Ferraro, Wade and my self were finishing up a ride on LaPosta (CR 213), a classic dirt road just outside of Durango with tons of construction and now natural gas drilling. An old haggard Chevy Camaro I-Roc drove past us, gassed it and blew tons of smoke from its old rotten redneck engine. He and his trophy wife…..NOT...... girlfriend did four more passes by us while flipping us off and pulling directly in front of us to smoke us out some more. Finally I called the cops. Not 30 seconds later a big Ford F250 pulls up behind us, blocks the oncoming Camaro and three HUGE oil drillers jump out and run up to the punks car.

Our new best friend opens the drivers door and does all he can to taunt the self-conscious lame-o into getting out of his car and handle it like a man. After almost a minute of choice words between the huge burly dude (on our side) and the driver our man stands behind the I-Roc while his buddy pulled the Ford head first to the front of the vehicle, now he is pinned. He then backs up and hits the guy hard enough to put a dent in the bumper from his knee. The burly guy ripped off his shirt, and began punching the back window, trying to break the glass (keep in mind he is still wearing his welding goggles). He then goes to the driver side window and tries to punch it out, for some reason that I will never know, the glass did not break. Finally the Camaro took off and the gang that saved us took off, back to drilling or whatever they do when not saving skinny spandex wearing cyclist from redneck loosers.
