yea so ride today.

or lack there of ride. I showed up at the shop typical tuesday time. Aidan was coming on the ride so we waited on valley road for him. He caught up to us and we chased for a bit. We got back together with the group at the bottom of Allen road and the ride continued like normal. I made it almost to 202 when I flatted. Aidan and chris stopped then we decided we were going to ride the ricola course for them. got on 202 and completely messed that up. Then I flatted again in bedminster. with no more co2 I found a seat at the bedminster exxon with Gulzar the proprietor. I wish I had my camera. He kept asking me if I wanted his electrical tape then packing tape and duct tape. Then Gulzar the exxon worker and I fed the birds. that was nice.

If you ever have a chance to nearly kill yourself with a co2 cartridge, then double flat, then spend and hour plus with a gas station attendant who doesnt speak english, Do it.

Photo cred on this goes to colin. and LOU!

Scott I promise a race report soon.

done.

Somerville was today. I raced juniors and it was pretty fast. word on the street is that it was like 28mph. Shane Kline won for ehh the third year in a row. redic.
Colin was shredding the camera. Here he is pictured with a professional photog.
Alejandro acton maybe. Ehhh i dont know my colavita people. that was a guess.
sweet navigators backup bikes. mmm yes and bora pit wheels all around.

sort of a lame update.

Went for a cross ride today to test out the new shifter.
im gonna say its semi spot on.
but it looks good and is mega comfy.
i have to do some adjustments its kinda slow shifting to smaller cogs.

I went down on a sandy section of the trail, in the middle of the powerlines and quickly got up to see if anyone had seen me go down. haha.

then i went for a run

weak blog

anybody wanna ride cross?

pleez

kthankxbye

im kinda proud of myself. ive been pullin down mega blog results. like 30 to 40 views a day and have almost hit 2000 views in the past few months.

did a little hustlin at the shop today and scored this sweet 105 10s shifter for some elbow grease.
I may have 9 speed der. and cassette but this is still flowing and shifting well with one dead click.
4 grams heavier and like 10 to 15x more comfortable. Shimanos 10s stuff has kinda warmed up to me, but Id prefer to ride their huge levers off road and stick with the campy crisp on the road. i dont think its even possible to slip off one of these huge hoods.

ill give it an official test wed.

tomorrow 3hrs in the saddle and the second run of the new tuesday loop

killer loooper

Raced this weekend. Junior race this morning. Didnt race very well, one of those days. not gonna really attempt excuses but I messed with my program this week and it hurt. So after no legs I raced the cat 4s. dicy race with about 10 flats or so, yet no crashes, most of which centered around the right hand shoulder. TomTom got us there in good time.

This guy is on an effin mission. he rides for the fitness mission team.
Now, 60mph is not the impressive part of this photog, the impressive part is the 5000rpms mixed with what I diagnose is a effed up exaust in chris' audi. anyway i needed a dashboard shot somewhere on my blog. ishes.
this porshce thought it was cool to pass us on the shoulder. so i made a roadside appointment to catch a photog of his sweet ground effects!

When we got back to my house ma and pa had subs for us and this stellar guacamole. festive for yesterdays' cinco de mayo

The landscape for the rest of the day, wish me luck.

rangers gave it a good run.

kthankxbye
