It was pretty awesome best I remember! I do remember doing a lot of merkins!

Six Hammers showed and  we did a mess of merkins and some other things!

So the time has come to pass the torch to a new Site Q at Folsom! As I was thinking through all the Pax about who would a good Site Q I realized anyone of these HIM’s would do a great job, so the decision was pretty tough but one HIM can’t standing out in my mind. It was Ball Joint. This HIM showed up for his first beatdown with a determination and willingness to push the rock and serve. I asked Ball Joint back in July if he would be interested in taking over at Folsom in September and he said he would. So we set the date for Sept. 11th not knowing Ball Joint would be hot and heavy in the middle of his first 1/2 marathon training, so we planned to split up the beatdown. I’d take the first half while him and Sparky ran 11 miles then they would be back at Folsom at 6:30 and he would take over. It all worked out as planned and Ball Joint is officially the new Folsom Site Q. It was truly an honor and pleasure being Site Q of the greatest AO on the planet! Couldn’t have done it without all you HIM’s!

As for the beatdown, trust me when I say it was epic! We honored all those who died and were affected in the attacks on 9/11/2001!

Wichita out and on to the next one!
