Hard to believe that it's time for the regularly scheduled race series to begin at Grattan. Looks like it may be warmer than previous years, though the wind seems to be howlin' out there right now. While some funny Bastards have been posting about medical supplies and bandages, I think we don't have to worry with the excellent staff that have been signed on to handle this year's racing.
All kidding aside - be safe, watch out for the other guy, and remember it's A TRAINING RACE and that cookie primes are worth turning your bike (or your bones) into a pile of carbon fiber toothpicks.
Good luck and be safe!
There's huge glory in winning that sprint for 35th place in the B's.
ReplyDeleteaaaaah, the smell of carbon fiber grinding on pavement, the screams of ecstacy, B racers with harlequin tops and their Dad's old bike.....who would want to miss this show??? A Spring ritual. Buying medical supply stocks like crazy today expecting a big run up tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteIn the spirit of Barry Ruby, I'm looking for a weakly (weekly?) gra-TAN (French pronounciation) blog post, complete with carnage photos and ambulance reports? Can you help a brother out since I'll miss the next two weeks?
ReplyDeleteWe'll be rolling our own. Happily no carnage to report this week.
