Last weekend I had the opportunity to head to San Marcos, TX and hang with the Austin, Houston, and SA Town Crew. Chris Balles put on the Texas Round Up IV and thanks to Fringe Clothing for floating me some cash this would soon be a contest I would not forget. I arrived in Austin around 9pm Friday night and rode with Jim McKay, Huck "Lee" Edwars, Mark "Rad Dad" Dandridge, Aaron Frost, and many other Texas Riders. We rode at the historical OG Garage. After a long night of riding and hanging out with great vibe...I headed to Mckay's crib and crashed for the night. Bright and early Saturday Jim and I headed to San Marcos to the fairgrounds and was able to throw down some great sessions and compete. I was happy with a 3rd place finish since this was the first time I was able to compete this year because of my show and work schedule. Everyone was riding great in all the classes and I can say I was glad I was not judging the event...it must have been tough! The final results:
