Another summer has passed. As our liquid paradise takes on an uninviting winter
chill, we have only the sweet memories of what was. Remember the
dawn-patrol sessions before work, when the lake was so calm that
for just a second you felt guilty for ripping it apart. And what
about the late afternoon sessions with your favorite crew –
as the sun dropped past the horizon and the water completely
glassed over, you always made time for one last ride. When you
reflect on the summer of ’02, it is hoped you had too many
great moments to pick a favorite. Allow this photo gallery to help
you relive the good times in the cold months to
come.
