a fellow mountain biker named Mark sent me this...

at the Cranky Monkey race at Schaeffer Farms I had what I thought was a splendid effort
my body felt great
and my bike...
well... my bike did not make it through the race

with two miles left in the race with a solid lead on the trailing Clydesdales my frame buckled beneath me

Jamis warrantied the frame with the defective weld
I have to head to The Family Bike Shop to pick it up

it was a great day on the bike that ended with 2 mile march back to the parking lot

thanks Jamis for the warranty
thanks Family Bike Shop for handling that for me
and thanks Mark for the pic!
