this sunday was a bit tougher of a race since i had to actually go hard... we are geting a lot of in shape riders now... and the united team was out there all in shape to do tour of california... so they were riding like you are supposed to which means we had to as well... lots of break aways and chases... they say we were on 30 mph for 90 minutes.. but the course is fast and we were really wide into the turns often so it couldnt have been so hard even if it was fast.. but a few times things did heat way up...
they changed the course for the race and its now got an uphill sweeping final turn and a chicane after turn 1... so it was exciting... everyone forgets how to turn in the first few races of the year...
i think our team got it done... but since this race was quicker it was a bit tougher to ride on the buddy system like we try to do... and we were again short handed in the end... i got it going a bit for josh in the end but he lost my wheel into turn 3 and then you are up the hill and into turn 4.. so its not the best idea to pass on the hill at the speed we were going if you want to do a good sprint... he ended up 5th or 6th but was relegated beacase he folded his number... the worst offical ever doc hess was out punish us... i think he doesnt like being antagonized by riders who mock him by folding their numbers... this is why we like CBR.. look for an article in velonews on how bad ass CBR is...
bahati was there but didnt race...
i dropped anchor in a big way after i did a lap at full gas to bring in cruz friedrick and domingue who were team time trialing off the front... that hurt...
i wore my XS jersey yesterday and my big ol oakley riddles... and i still havent shaved my legs...

most of the time I hate bike racing. But this weekend was fun, because most all my friends are Big Time, and im definitive not.So it was cool to roll around in circle with my bro's.It's like fightclub but on bike,and your face does'nt get jack up. I wish I saw Foxy's madison that shit is funny...Next weekend 1000k CBR kicks ass..

Erik, I've got a old set of Oakley Factory Pilots you can have. Those are some honkin' big glasses. I also have some 1908's vintage Uvex....
I mean, uh, 1980's.
Heh.
Hah! I just found my factory pilots!
