Day 7 - "twofer" - b) Dirty

Twenty elbows and eighty wheels
Pushing hard around a track-full of attitude
Maybe five pairs of eyes watching
A book of rules waiting to be ignored
Full contact
Constant contact
Competitive spirit no man could match
A fast play
Positions change
Someone is down but no one saw a thing
Except the smirk on the face of the girl still skating
The slap on the ass from her team mate
And you know
She got away with it

Day 7 - "twofer" - a) Clean

tight line, steep approach
loose rock, a root, shift
weight
don't touch the gears
jerk left, slip, recover
mad scramble, more roots
shale drift, not as steep
low branch
switchback
cactus reaches, hungry
pull up
push down
burst through the claws
momentum
before the wall, the lip
pedal, timing, approach
yank, pedal, weight, lunge
crest, hold, grin
cleaned it
