RUY BARBOSA: “YA LLEGARÁN LOS MOMENTOS PARA LA REVANCHA”
-El piloto chileno de Honda no volverá a competir este año luego del corte del tendón de Aquiles y una fractura en la base del peroné izquierdo, lesiones de las cuales se está recuperando exitosamente.
SANTIAGO, 27 de septiembre de 2023.- Definitivamente el piloto número 1 de Chile y de Latinoamérica de moto enduro, Ruy Barbosa, no volverá a competir este año debido a la fractura sufrida el 5 de agosto en la base del peroné y el corte del tendón de Aquiles del pie izquierdo cuando entrenaba en el torneo Sprint Cup en María Pinto, región Metropolitana, durante un paréntesis que hizo por el verano estadounidense, cuando estaba en el segundo lugar del ranking en el Grand National Cross Country (GNCC).
La decisión del piloto oficial del equipo estadounidense Phoenix Racing Honda fue tomada en conjunto con el equipo médico que lo intervino dos días después de la doble lesión. En estos 51 días de recuperación el deportista de 24 años ha tenido una rápida mejoría, pero no para volver a competir en el alto rendimiento.
“He decidido cerrar este año en lo deportivo. Si bien he tenido una recuperación más pronta de lo esperado, hay muy poco tiempo para volver a la pista. Queda menos de un mes para las últimas carreras del campeonato GNCC y restan 40 días para el Mundial de los Six Days. Por eso es mejor dejar la temporada hasta acá. La idea es hacer una buena preparación para el 2024 y llegar fortalecido y bien recuperado a los campeonatos internacionales”, indicó resignado Ruy Barbosa.
En el torneo más difícil del moto enduro a nivel mundial, el GNCC de Estados Unidos, Barbosa compitió este 2023 en 9 fechas del total de 12 en la categoría XC2 para motos de 250cc. En ese periodo logró estar como líder del certamen durante dos estaciones, ganó 2 carreras, fue segundo en una y tercero en otra, terminando la primera etapa pre vacaciones del verano norteamericano en la segunda posición del torneo, el mejor lugar de un piloto latinoamericano en los 47 años de historia del GNCC. Ya en 2022 marcó un hito cuando obtuvo el tercer lugar en su categoría.
Por otro lado, entre enero y junio pasado, paralelamente tomó parte en el Campeonato US Sprint Enduro AMA de Estados Unidos en un total de 8 fechas dobles, concluyendo en el tercer lugar, subiéndose al podio en 15 carreras del total de 16, triunfando en 4 ocasiones.
Según la evaluación de los médicos tratantes, por las terapias y el trabajo kinésico que está realizando, Barbosa podría subirse a una moto a comienzo de noviembre para lentamente volver al ritmo y velocidad que tenía hasta antes de lesionarse el 5 de agosto, sobre la base además de una buena preparación física y específica.
“En un mes, más o menos, podré estar sobre la moto, pero será delicado y habrá que empezar de a poco. Ahora debo solucionar la situación con el equipo en Estados Unidos, para cerrar el contrato por este año. Lamentablemente, este 2023 llegó hasta acá. A veces las cosas no salen como uno quiere. Pero el deporte es así… Ya llegarán los momentos para la revancha”, enfatizó el talentoso piloto de Honda.
AGRADECIMIENTOS Y SIX DAYS
Ruy Barbosa agradece a quienes lo han apoyado en los campeonatos que ha tomado parte en Estados Unidos por el equipo Phoenix Racing Honda como Honda Chile, Copec, Biosano, Ruy Barbosa Motos, MINDEP-IND, Garmin y KIFIT.
Por otro lado, también destacó los agradecimientos a la gente e instituciones que colaboraron a juntar recursos para la selección chilena de los Six Days como Sprint Cup, la Federación de Motociclismo de Chile (FMC), SMotos y el entrenador de la selección, Pablo Levalle. Asimismo, el piloto importó con mucho esfuerzo una moto Honda 250cc preparada por su equipo, el Phoenix Racing Honda, para los Six Days.
“Hay mucha gente que trabaja junto a mi para llegar de la mejor forma a cada competencia, pero especialmente se conformó un buen equipo para los Six Days de San Juan (Argentina) para noviembre. Entre ellos mi mecánico Luciano Villavicencio, quien siempre se ha ocupado de mis motos, la titular y la de reserva. No estaré en San Juan, pero sí le deseo mucho éxito a la selección de Chile. Ojalá más adelante se institucionalice el apoyo a la selección chilena para no estar pidiendo dinero por todos lados para financiar al equipo, su preparación y para las futuras generaciones”, concluyó Ruy Barbosa.

#6: A Long Day
It had been a long day, and by the time Shev returned home from his latest job it was just past the normal dinner hour. He’d pearled Anzhi to let him know that he’d be late, but he wasn’t entirely sure how late, and his husband had agreed to hold off on getting dinner ready until he made it home. And so, when he stepped through the front door and found Kismet and Anzhi lounging on the couch and reading, he wasn’t surprised. They both looked up, Kismet smiling and Anzhi wriggling off the couch to come around it and envelop him in a hug.
“Welcome home, Silvertongue,” Anzhi crooned, rising onto his toes to press a kiss to Shev’s cheek before flitting away. “We prepped everything, but didn’t throw it in the oven yet, so I will go and do that now.”
Shev smiled. “Hope I didn’t hold everythin’ up too much.”
“You didn’t!” Anzhi called as he traipsed down the stairs.
Kismet rose to his feet and came over to where Shev was lifting his bag from his shoulder, taking it from him. “Go hop in the shower, sweetheart, you’re filthy. We’ll have dinner ready by the time you’re out.”
Shev barked a laugh. “Straight t’the point, I see!”
“Would you have it any other way?”
“Nah.” Shev leaned over and pressed his lips to the top of Kismet’s head. “Thanks.” And then he was leading the way down the stairs and popping into the bathroom.
It wasn’t particularly big, the space dwarfed by the large tub near the back and lined with a counter on one side and a small armoire on the right. He snagged a towel out of the latter, disrobed, and then stepped into the tub, fiddling with the valves on the shower to turn it on and yelping when the water that hit him in the face was ice cold. He immediately stepped out of the flow, waiting for the water to heat.
It had been a long day, but not a bad day. He’d gotten to work with a few old friends from his early mercenary days, caught up with one of the former gladiators that fought with and against him on the Bloodsands, and made a little Miqo’te girl smile when he’d given her a bit of sea glass he’d found on the beach earlier that afternoon. As far as jobs went, he wasn’t complaining, but there was still a part of him that was melancholy.
It wasn’t that he wasn’t happy; he absolutely was. He had a husband who adored him, and another… well, partner, he supposed, who also cared for him a good deal. He could choose which jobs he accepted because they weren’t hurting monetarily, and Kismet’s island resort was beginning to gain ground. But there was something he’d been feeling the loss of keenly, and that was his bi-monthly Sixday nights.
Ever since The Warded Ring had closed, he’d been trying to fill that void with other things, but nothing really seemed to scratch the itch that fighting all out with another person did. It wasn’t that fight clubs were few and far between… He just liked the assurance that he wouldn��t kill his opponent or be too maimed to do his job the next day, and the shields at the Ring had afforded him that sense of security.
He spent his shower thinking about alternative outlets that he could employ to get that same result, but by the time he stepped out of the bathroom, freshly washed and re-dressed, he hadn’t come up with anything else.
“What’s wrong?” Anzhi asked immediately when he saw his face.
“Nothin’,” Shev answered. “Was just thinkin’ abou’ Ring.”
Anzhi and Kismet looked at each other before Kismet spoke. “I know Nightingale House is going through a remodel, but they’re going to keep one of the mats, at least. I’d be happy to go against you anytime. And I’m willing to bet Anzhi’d be more than happy to watch us sweat.”
“Oh, you know me so well,” Anzhi said with a grin, moving to pull dinner out of the oven.
Shev’s stomach growled. “Aye, I’d like tha’. It’s just a bittersweet thing, y’know?”
“Understandable. It was your baby,” Anzhi said, and then Kismet reached up to give him a squeeze on the shoulder.
“Maybe we can do a date night on those nights. Make new memories that are just as good.”
“I’d like that, too,” Shev said, and moved to go grab plates. They set the table and ate, and later relaxed upstairs in the living room while they practiced various idle-time hobbies for a quiet few hours.
Today had been a long day, but it hadn’t been a bad day.

RUY BARBOSA: “YA LLEGARÁN LOS MOMENTOS PARA LA REVANCHA”
-El piloto chileno de Honda no volverá a competir este año luego del corte del tendón de Aquiles y una fractura en la base del peroné izquierdo, lesiones de las cuales se está recuperando exitosamente.
SANTIAGO, 27 de septiembre de 2023.- Definitivamente el piloto número 1 de Chile y de Latinoamérica de moto enduro, Ruy Barbosa, no volverá a competir este año debido a la fractura sufrida el 5 de agosto en la base del peroné y el corte del tendón de Aquiles del pie izquierdo cuando entrenaba en el torneo Sprint Cup en María Pinto, región Metropolitana, durante un paréntesis que hizo por el verano estadounidense, cuando estaba en el segundo lugar del ranking en el Grand National Cross Country (GNCC).

So here’s a little something I wrote for Halloween. Yes, I know it’s literally Thanksgiving right now, but I’m currently very sick and very bored, so have fun, I suppose.
It’s a set of diary entries written by Valerie Landrey, the owner of an apothecary shop band the mentor figure of one of my main characters, Ankis Brice, who is known as Ante Akari in the story (1. Yes, she’s named after that weird doctor lady from I’m the Grim Reaper. I think she was the main character or something? I don’t know, its been like 2 years since I read that webtoon and I remember nothing except I think liked it and it was kind of sad.
2. You may notice that I use she/her pronouns in my little spiel at the top here for Ankis, but Valerie uses he/him pronouns for Ante in the story. That is because Ankis is trans and this story is written before she transitioned, and yes, it did feel vaguely like a social faux pas the entire time I wrote this story as I repeatedly used the wrong pronouns for this character. Feel free to scream at me in the comments about it or something)
Am I happy about how this story came to out? Not particularly. Especially the ending. It doesn’t really make sense if you don’t know the rest of the story, and how things go in the Arc Ankis shows up in. (Spoiler alerts: she’s now a zombie who’s also a traveling healer and in this “will they won’t they” relationship with this ex-priest lady who’s also a main character. Things got complicated real quick.) But I’ve been looking at this thing for like a month now and I’m completely blind to how it actually looks, so I letting the whole world see it as I lay in my bed watching my party get absolutely demolished by that stupid Fire Lady in Dragonheir and think about writing a silly short story set in a super school for my characters.
Six Drops of Oil, Pressed from the Ragata Flower
Threeday, 3rd of Middle Winter, Year 211 ATS
I lost another bet with Ariadne today, so I have to actually do one of my Arkarus Resolutions. Starting a diary seemed like the least annoying, so here we are. I really should stop making bets with her. If I didn’t know any better, I’d think she’s a Seer. If you are reading this while I’m still alive, kindly stop. Especially you Gallas! I know where your rock collection is. Don’t test me. If I’m not alive, then feel free to keep going. What do I care? I’m dead!
I guess I should introduce myself. I’m Valerie Landrey. I grew up in the slum district of Sekan, and now I run an apothecary here tailored to my neighbors who likely don’t have the money for the “luxury” of medicine. Whether or not my brews actually work well is… complicated. I don’t exactly have the best materials to work with, but I try my best and they usually turn out okay. It’s not like my customers complain. They know beggars can’t be choosers.
Sixday, 26th of Old Autumn, Year 216 ATS
So… I may have done something stupid… I took home a child. Look, Ariadne already screamed herself hoarse when she saw him. Why would you take home another mouth to feed, there’s a bunch of street children out there, what’s another one, blah, blah, blah. It felt weird to just leave him there though, you know? He was a scrappy little thing, and the obvious malnourishment didn’t help much. He’s a smart kid though, even tried this whole distraction technique before pickpocketing me. Not that it worked, mind you, but he’s got spunk. It'll be good to have someone to continue the shop after I’m six feet under, anyway. What’s the worst that could happen?
Fiveday, 15th of New Summer, Year 220 ATS
Taking in Ante that day four years ago was the best decision I ever made. That kid’s a genius. You wouldn’t believe the stuff he’s making! My brews had never worked that well. It’s too bad that we couldn’t publicly give him credit for all the work he’s doing, but Deitri discrimination is at an all time high lately. I’m worried about who can be the salesperson for the shop after I’m gone. This place is crucial to the lives of everyone in the slums district. Elves live for a long time, but I’m gonna kick the bucket eventually. For now though, things are good. We’ve even got a few rich customers lately that we could overcharge, so we’re rolling in cash!
Twoday, 2nd of Old Winter, Year 221 ATS
The Count of Borslaot is dead. To be honest, good riddance to bad rubbish. That guy was a nasty piece of work. I heard that he was poisoned, though. It’s just a rumor but I wouldn’t be surprised if it's true. It’s not like he had a shortage of enemies to choose from.
On less nice news, today someone spotted Ante walking around in the shop and called him a demon-spawn. Ante said that it didn't bother him, but I could tell he was angry. Honestly, the discrimination against Deitri is just getting worse. I’m worried that Ante’s going to get shanked or poisoned one day when I’m not looking just because of who he is.
Sixday, 26th of New Spring, Year 222 ATS
Another noble died today. That’s three in as many weeks. Their family had hired me to see if I could tell the cause of death, and Good Calcine. I’m surprised no one threw up while we were there. I’m surprised I didn’t throw up. There was blood everywhere. Dripping out of the body’s eyes, it’s nose, it’s mouth, you name it, there was blood coming out. The bedsheets were practically soaked with crimson. The body had bloody scratch marks all over their throat made from their own fingernails, and their larynx was completely busted, likely from screaming. I’m surprised no one heard them screeching in agony while they died. I could tell the cause of death was a poison, but not what kind. I asked Ante, and he couldn’t figure it out either. There was no trace of any other evidence left behind either. Whoever did this was good. Scarily good.
Twoday, 2nd of Middle Spring, Year 222 ATS
The Poisoner has struck again, and this time, it was a commoner. It wasn’t anyone I knew personally, but Gallas did. He said it was one of his coworkers. They weren’t particularly close - in fact, they practically hated each other, but it still hurt. At first, the killings almost felt like retribution, like the killer was punishing the nobles for their corruption, but this is quickly getting out of hand. Ariadne and Gallas stopped by to chat for a little bit after the shop closed today. Ariadne still doesn’t particularly like Ante, but they’ve learned to be at least cordial with each other. Gallas, on the other hand, loves him. They’ve been on several expeditions outside the city over the years, picking flowers and herbs for the shop. It's clear that he has absolutely no idea what he’s doing when he goes with him, but it's still nice to see him try.
Nineday, 9th of Middle Autumn, Year 222 ATS
People are starting to drop like flies. Half of the major noble families have been wiped out. The city is in shambles. So many power vacuums have opened up, that at this point it's just pandemonium. Ante has been holing up in the back lab for the entire tenday, experimenting with something. I think he’s trying to find a way to cure whatever the Poisoner is using. I’ve barely seen him at all, even for meals. I hope he’s been eating and sleeping enough.
The Darkening is going to begin next month, but I haven’t seen anyone prepare at all. They’re too busy running around freaking out about this Poisoner. You’d think that Calcine, the Burning Sun going out for two days would be more concerning, but I suppose after 222 years of dealing with it every year, I guess it’s not all that exciting anymore. I wonder if anyone would ever find a way to stop the Darkening from spreading. I doubt it. How do you stop something if you don’t even know the cause?
Sevenday, 17 of Middle Winter, Year 222 ATS
There’s been a new victim. It was Ariadne. Yesterday, I woke up to the sound of the front door opening. I had looked to see who it was, and I saw Gallas struggling to close and lock the door, hands trembling. He was still dressed in his night clothes despite the cold temperature. I immediately ran up to him asking, “Good Calcine! Gallas, why are you here? Where’s Ariadne?”
He turned around, his body shaking like a leaf, and from that angle, I could see all of the dried blood caked on his hands and clothing. He collapsed into my arms, muttering, “It’s my fault, it’s my fault, it’s all my fault.”
He organized a funeral for her today, being her next of kin. We all grew up as street kids, so it’s not the first friend I’ve lost, but I thought we were past that part of our lives. The part where we live in fear of what’s to come everyday. I suppose it never truly ends.
Threeday, 33rd of New Winter, Year 222 ATS
They found the Poisoner. They let him have some final words before the executioner cut his head off. I can still hear them echoing in my head. I’ve inscribed them here, for you to see.
“When I was a small child, my parents were shoemakers. Simple folk, but kind. But someone just couldn’t let them be. Someone had just had to punish them for the crime of birthing a demonspawn. So they fixed it. They snuck in one day, chopped their heads off, and paraded them in front of me, their little cursed demon child. Everyone knew who did it, they all knew who killed them. But no one did anything. Too afraid, perhaps. Or maybe they agreed with him. Who knows? That person soon became the Count of Borslaot. And we all know what happened to him. Six drops of oil, pressed from the Ragata flower. That’s all it took to kill my first victim. And the next. And the next. I want you all to remember how fragile your lives are. Maybe then, it’ll serve as a good enough warning for you all the next time you try to feign ignorance.”
Everyone is celebrating Finid outside. It’s always been a frantic holiday. People trying to get all of their affairs in order before the Darkening. I think I’ll be staying inside this time. I’d like to find all of Ante’s things so I can put them into the grave they dug for him. Or maybe I’ll just burn them. I haven’t decided yet.
The Second Day of the Darkening, Year 222 ATS
It’s fitting, how I’m going to die just before the new year begins. I can hear them searching for me in the house. Whether it's the nobles coming to tie off loose ends, or someone new, I know they are coming for me, and I know they will find me. They really were quite clever, doing this during the Darkening. Plenty of people die during it anyway. No one will think foul play is involved. I wonder if I’ll see Ante when I die. He better hope not. I have a few words for him after what he did to Ariadne.
