Dreamin' Bout Heavin' But Feel Like Hell
It's official. I am a traitor. Today I ventured into the dark depths of the California DMV. As my rent payments for my Union Square apartment (tear) are through I am officially not a New York Resident. That sucks because I feel that my NY residence made me better than the rest of the puff balls out here. I mean, I still rock the Giants Hat, drive like a madman, blast Biggie, and inevitably move the fuck back home but this is still a tough step for me.
All told, Santa Monica ran a pretty tight ship on the DMV department. Much friendlier than the New York lot at least. Only issue was that they made me take the drivers test once again. Shit, this could be complicated. Luckily I flirted with the test desk woman (think 47 year old 215lb black woma with purple fingernails longer than my tibula) and she smiled while sliding me the exam "This is the easy one sweetie....". My hospitality training and boyish good looks paid off once more. I rocked the motherfucker.
So I went to a NY Giants Santa Monica Fan Club meeting at a local bar this Sunday. Wow, was it lame. There were 8 guys in a quiet bar and 1 60 year old woman wearing a Giants hat. One of the awsome fans was reading a comic book. Jessica and I were not amused. I missed going to my favorite football bar for this? After 2 Fat Tires (10am) and a few texts to

Introduction
Print this section Bobsledding , winter sport in which teams of two or four steer a sled down an ice-covered track, reaching speeds of more than 135 km/h (84 mph). The fastest sled wins, often by mere hundredths of a second. The sport’s name comes from its early days, when sledders bobbed their bodies back and forth on straightaways to help the sled along. Bobbing was never proved to work and was soon discontinued, but it remained a part of the sport’s name. II
Strategy and Technique
Print this section The most critical part of a bobsled run is its start. Teams focus on explosive starts because momentum at that point strongly affects the sled’s speed throughout the course. Saving one-tenth of a second during the start often translates to saving one-third of a second on the run as a whole.

The Bobsled via Bonneville Shoreline The Bobsled is a famous downhill romp, extending from the Bonneville Shoreline Trail down to the homes of the Avenues. Although it's just one descent option from the BST, this little trail is so famous, it deserves its own web page. This twisting, turning downhill runs in a creekbed, 1000 vertical feet over 1.6 miles. This is strictly a downhill don't even dream of riding uphill on the Bobsled. Riding the loop requires good aerobic capability for the uphill and advanced technical ability for the downhill. (The old entry to the Bobsled had about 1/4 mile of steep loose rock at the beginning. There's a new trail in 2007 about 1000 feet to the east that's much better.) Rob ducks a deadfall as the Bobsled twists and turns. April 30, 2002. UtahMountainBiking.com is your source for bike trail info repair instructions feature articles first aid ... fitness , and goodies Although the BST can be ridden during temporary winter thaws, snow tends to accumulate in the deep shaded canyon of the Bobsled. Once there's a foot or more of snow, you won't be able to get through. There are three ways to get up: via City Creek, via Terrace Hills, or via Dry Gulch and the Popperton paved trail. The most direct of these routes is to grind up paved Terrace Hills drive.

http://library.thinkquest.org/J002862/bobsled.htm
The History In Saint Moritz, Switzerland (in the Swiss Alps) bobsledding first became popular in the 19th century. Bobsleds were first raced on icygrounds and icy passes. The first competition was held in 1898 with five-passenger sleds. The sport spread rapidly to other countries, and by 1914, when the first European championships took place at St. Moritz, there were more than a hundred bobsled runs in Europe. In 1923 the Federation Internationale de Bobsleigh et de Tobogganing was created to set up rules for the sport. The next year, bobsledding was introduced into the Olympics at Chamonix, France. By 1950 the sport we know today had taken shape and attracts athletes from around the world today. The Sport Bobsled teams are made up of 2 to 4 people. The weight limit for 4 men is 1,389 LB and for a 2 person sled the limit for a 2 person sled is 827 LB. You start out by the team running down the track till they go about 228 feet. Then before they get to the first turn all the team members get into the sled. The captain of the team steers for the rest of the ride down. Then the team member in the back operates the brakes. If it is a 4 member team then the two middle team members lean backward then go forward real fast like snapping forward. That is what gives bobsledding it's name. When they do that it is called "bobbing". The way the bobsleds are made are like this: they have brakes and a streamlined aluminum cowl mounted on the front of the sled. They go up to 118 mph but the average speed is about 60 to 90 mph. The sled itself is made out of fiberglass and look like rockets because of their shapes. The tracks that they run on are called bobruns. They go up to 118 mph but the average speed is about 60 to 90 mph.

Before I tell you about the personal AdWords coaching "Bobsled Run" that begins January 26, I want you to hear from some of the students who finished the last one in September....
"In June, Chocoley (which had been a little home-based online chocolate company) took a huge leap by signing a 3 year lease for an office/warehouse that we hoped we would eventually grow into. And then, for the rest of the summer, we held our breath. We were scared to death that we'd taken too big of a step, not knowing how long it would take to be making enough money to afford our new lease commitment.
"Then, along came the Bobsled Run and Perry Marshall. Steve and Nicole signed up - desperate for the investment to pay off - so that our move didn't end up being the biggest mistake the business would ever make. Three months later we're enjoying the rewards of following our instincts and taking the financial risks of our move and the Bobsled Run course. We've been working so hard and running so fast, just trying to keep up with the new flood of business that has been pouring in thanks to Perry Marshall.

    By Paul Vitello SPARTANBURG, S.C. – Every candidate has a crop of funny stories, but with all due respect, as they love to say in election campaigns, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee’s are probably funnier. He does voices. He makes noises with a microphone that any Comedy Central stand-up act might respect. He has told the bobsled story before, but never in so leisurely and drawn-out a way as he told it here today among fellow Southerners. It’s about an experience he had in Utah in 2001, the year before the Winter Olympics, when he attended a governors’ conference and was invited to participate in the “Governor’s Bobsled Race.” It was a race not in honor of the governors, but one in which the governors were to actually fold themselves into bobsleds and careen down the mountain at a high rate of speed. He had never seen a bobsled, he says; and could only remember having taken note of the sport while “watching the Wide World of Sports once” and observing with pity as the announcer narrated “the ‘agony of defeat’ when some poor guy careens off the track and flips over three times.”
    To make a very long and funny story short, if not as funny, Governor Huckabee took a lesson from a 16-year-old member of the Junior Olympic Bobsled Team. (“We walked up the track with spikes on our shoes, and the kid is showing me all the curves of the course.” Voice of 16-year-old athlete/dude: “This is No. 12. Like, you need to put the skids here because if you get ‘em way up here, you could, like, go off – “)
