Tookie And SIGMA Finish The 24/9 Alive!

SIGMA's Endurance light system















Jeff "Tookie" Williams (KY) drove without me all the way up to Wisconsin on Friday, because I couldn't get off of work. His mom drove with him, feeding him pre-race food like peanut-butter fudge and salami and cheese sandwiches. Upon arriving, James Keller and the SIGMA boys took them out for dinner. Somewhere in there, Jeff had told the guys that he had once raced these events solo. BIG MISTAKE. The SIGMA boys decided that they would allow Jeff to pretty much start (and finish) the race by himself while they slept. Now, I'm not saying I wouldn't have done that either, just wanted to put that out there.
With the world's worst transitions, and with Tookie running a lap without his transponder, our boys were as ready for this as Nick Nolte was for his arrest photo a few years ago. About 6a.m., they were all asleep. Jeff's mom decided to call Shenannigans, and took Jeff's 29er for a lap with his ankle chip. She turned the fastest lap of the whole group, and then made fudge.
Jeff will return home today, and hopefully will not be carrying James' love child. I heard it was cold, and James gets kinda handsy in the wee hours....

Thanks to SIGMA, and my beeatch Jeff.
