Into The Record Books
Well another weekend of raing is behind me. The CU Race was put on this past weekend fully equiped with a TT, Crit and Circuit Race. The TT went ok for me even though i still dont know how i did since the uscf officials lostthe first page of results which had the first start times. It was 14 miles and i thought i did well for me but Rude Bear Took the collegiate TT with a smokin sub 23 minute effort. Oh well.....:( The crit was going really well for me. I had great legs and was puting them to work. Covering attacks from ft. lewis and pulling back people, putting a flyer in myself, however with 6 to go i hit a mysteriously hidden pot hole that caused my bars to drop to my knees. The POP was so loud i thought i had cracked my wheel or something. I was too late for my free lap since there was only 6 laps to go and 5 by the time i got back, not that i would have made it back anyway. Oh well. Fort Lewis also decided to bring something like 24 Mens A to the crit which paid off considering they won it.
B Team party Squad getting ready to rip it up.
The P/1/2 Menzies rocked it.
The next day was the circuit race and CU wanted revenge. Ft. Lewis couldnt sweep it on our home race! I had great legs and really, really wanted to be in the break today but destiny wouldnt have it... After covering and trying to get off the front I managed to miss the break that stuck. I was just recovering when the perfect combo of CU, Ft Lewis, CSU and DU got off. I was bummed. The rest of the race was boring. I chatted and butted heads (literrally) with Big N for the remainder of the race which was fun. The race teamwise couldnt have gone any better, Kiel and Brad, both of whom were in the break took 1, 2 respectively. Great racing from those two.
Completely off subject but i saw this nice little beauty on the side of the street last week.
Very NICE!
Today was a hard mtn bike ride with friends, Shep and Ranno from the Trek Squad. Up flagstaff, down the other side, rollers, down to the dam on dirt, back up, back up to the top of flagstaff and finally back down the other side. Hard efforts on all the climbs and i am pleased to say that Ranno without a blink of an eye dropped me like i was hot. I thought i was going ok and then BAM, ranno was gone. Oh well i got a few years right?
Besides getting dropped continuously, riding with the guys, on mtn bikes, on nobbies, on dirt (a lil) was a nice change of pace. It was about 73 degrees out today and i thought i was going to burn up, god help me in PR!
The Diesel:
Shep doin what he does:
Braap!!
Well thats it, i have to pack tomorrow then its off to Puerto Rico!!!
Oh and sorry to friends and hauses Robbie Robbinet and Sol Frost who both had pretty bad crashes in Tejas. Feel better and have a speedy recovery. Jason also crashed apparently, but he got nabbed by an eddy, or roscoe if you will. Feel better!
