Thanks to everybody - it's nice when people can travel from seriously far away (Gumby you're a beast!) and enjoy the area where you live. Great people, great skating, even better memories.

Farm 2008, let the countdown begin!

I love the Farm races. is the only race where you can feel a texas outlaws-downhillbilly-fatboyteam-canuckistan at the same time.

**sniffleless** · 08-13-2007 08:22 PM

Man I wish could have been there.

Sounds like you all had a good time.

This one of my favorite pics of the contest. I caught BP reeling back on the 3rd beep, ready to explode onto the course. Luv bro. Your Amigo Eddy Texas Outlaws/Pavel Flow

**Joe & Nick** · 08-13-2007 11:19 PM

Eddy nutted up and ran the big hill with the A class. He had an awesome ride and I am very proud of both him and Fatboy who flew thru the course in a kilt.

Eddy, dude your first GS run was killer. I was super stoked to see you killing it from the top.

Thanks Joe for keeping this thing going. I could have just free rode that hill all day long.

Farm 07 was slalom perfection.

**Momona Boe** · 08-14-2007 05:54 AM

BP KILLED it on hig GS run!! He was SO much faster through the flatter middle section than everyone else.

And like Ant said: I also would take a bullet for any Iacovelli!

**MrTGun** · 08-14-2007 03:00 PM

Here goes....my second annual "Things I learned at the Farm" Post.

- Joe and his family are beyond gracious and tolerant
- For once it wasn't one of us puking inside
- It was however a few of us puking outside

- Texicans while frightening on the outside are soft and squishy on the inside. Much Love Amigos!
- Paint toxicity is highly overstated
- Dingle balls make you fast
- Helmets that don't fit give you gnarly goose eggs when you slam
- When Mig falls, similar to Fatty, a little piece fo me dies inside
- 2 of the 3 components of the New Jersey Holy Trinity can still bring a man to his knees
- My girlfriend is gnarcore
- Gumby+handplants make me jealous
- Scooter and his North Jersey hospitality never ceases to amaze me
- Destiny can still sing
- I need to train more before a race
- Leo is good people
- Surly enjoys feeding Canadians jelly beans that taste like potting soil
- Luke is the new Civ
- NY State feels you need to lay out traffic cones 10 miles before and after the one guy smoking cigarettes on the back of the work truck.
- US Tim Hortons is not even a reasonable facsimile thereof.
- Your Taco Bell wins
- Sydia can DH a plastic rig
- Duke's mom makes the best cup of coffee I've ever had south of our borders
- Nicky and Mountain Dew should be kept far away from each other.
- And finally a little booze and abundance of trust that Joe I isn't "dirty on the inside" will allow you to think that Snowballing a raw Oyster isn't that bad

I'm sure I could add another 50 with ease.

To new friends and old thanks for a killer weekend!!!!

for those who missed it:

also theres a contest going on named "put the caption on the picture"

**MrTGun** · 08-14-2007 06:50 PM

I guess I'm not getting away with saying I thought Joe I's hoodie said "Spit Oyster" eh???

**tyler87** · 08-15-2007 02:52 AM

That picture made me die inside.

**TorontoSk8** · 08-15-2007 07:10 AM

After that picture - I have a small amount of my own vomit rising into my mouth!!!!!!!

The big question is - "was it really an oyster"??????

FARM RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

**revzack** · 08-15-2007 09:56 PM

My crappy pictures.

And finally Gumby's Pornstar persona,

**Mig** · 08-17-2007 01:16 PM

Fullbag Team could never thank Joe I and his whole family enough for that fantastic weekend. It was simply perfect! Pulling a 2 day event into one, because of the rain, without any major glitches was miraculous. The hill, the pavement, the courses, the racing, the parties, the bands, the people... everything was out of this world!

Big thanks goes out also to the Duquettes for their hospitality on thursday night and to Glenn for all he did. Thanks to everyone who helped in anyway to make this a classic once again. I hope The Farm will live for ever.

Besides my 2nd place crock for the GS (I still can't believe it!), here's my most "vivid"

memory from The Farm 07:

...along with a few bruised ribs, and banged up right knee/left elbow. These make me "think" of The Farm every single minute of the day and night...

Good thing I was wearing my helmet too, from the looks of the scratches on it now! By the way, that hipper is now twice that size... Ha! Ha! Ha!

All of Julie's pictures are here: http://www.hatem.ca/thefarm07/

- Yes, the Fullbag Team likes Curtis BBQ. (see pictures above)
- Mr. Surly just f@cking rules!
- Eddy and Fatboy were impressive!
- Revzack is a cool dude.
- BP is a powerhouse.
- Seeing Sofa King podium made my day.
- The Duque is fast on anything with 4 wheels.
- Watching Trashin' from start to finish with a room full of skaters = LAUGHTER!
- Gumby is literally the King of the Road.
- Sydia + clay wheels = BIG BALLS!
- I can't imagine a race without the Ontarionistans and the Jersey Douchebags. It just wouldn't be the same...
