When you advertise something like that you wind up with a contingent of knuckleheads who elbow you out of the way for the holeshot, then proceed to crash into every rock and tree in sight, then they get really tired and red in the face and crash into more rocks and trees, then swear about it and make excuses for why they aren't faster than you. <br /><br />Seek out the quiet types. Those that are the cycling equivalent of mass murderers. <br /><br />-tBig Bikeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18303656141935863563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8572555494322710549.post-34537084714630188642009-04-30T06:53:00.000-04:002009-04-30T06:53:00.000-04:00Sandro - ouch! ; )

I like the atmosphere, meeting new people, riding different courses, traveling, having a goal, and pushing myself to new limits. It's fun for me. <br /><br />Matt - been speaking to Rodd about your rides - I'll be there! Just not tonight. I got a beauty of a nice one in this morning over in QC.<br />Cheers!the original big ringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10865105701772620245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8572555494322710549.post-22675804694326042462009-04-29T15:17:00.000-04:002009-04-29T15:17:00.000-04:00you should really think about getting naked though...you should really think about getting naked though<br /><br />http://timetogetnaked.com/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8572555494322710549.post-51547426289180791162009-04-29T14:21:00.000-04:002009-04-29T14:21:00.000-04:00why!?

I just take a look at a...why!?<br /><br />why be the faster?<br /><br />I just take a look at all the fast riders. Soon they will break down as they hit that point of no return. When the body starts to break down.<br /><br />I know of many many top athletes that have hit that point - busted knees, adrenal problems, cancer, etc...<br /><br />I just want to ride to be healthy and fit. <br />Racing took that away and pushed me to the limits. <br />Not a good thing... <br /><br />Ride for the enjoyment of it.<br />Racing takes that away.<br /><br />And, fully enjoy your time with your family as well. Never loose sight of that. <br />Racing takes that away as well...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8572555494322710549.post-60674605517212613682009-04-29T14:20:00.000-04:002009-04-29T14:20:00.000-04:00Most of the time when our group does a loop we thr...Most of the time when our group does a loop we throw down just as you describe. The climbs are attacked by those feeling good, and everybody gets back together at the top. Everybody either has someone to chase or someone to try to escape. I work myself over thoroughly battling Rodd and Thom (when he shows up). I find our group rides more punishing than the Grand Prix. That's good. I realize this is not a 1 on 1 deal, but its punishing just the same. <br /><br />We're riding tonight if you are interested. 6:30 at the gate (this will be regular for I while I think). All other Big Ringers are welcome as well, naturally.Matt Surchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04244780566118768642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8572555494322710549.post-36537381199487297182009-04-29T12:54:00.000-04:002009-04-29T12:54:00.000-04:00"prison sense"........hhhhhmmmmmm"prison sense"........hhhhhmmmmmmMCFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18217679967777891655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8572555494322710549.post-81674612229972171262009-04-29T11:31:00.000-04:002009-04-29T11:31:00.000-04:00"he wants someone FASTER spak...not someone that w..."he wants someone FASTER spak...not someone that will come all the way out talk some shite then give up before it's over..."<br /><br />brahahahahahahahahaha!the original big ringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10865105701772620245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8572555494322710549.post-59130491916612112842009-04-29T09:11:00.000-04:002009-04-29T09:11:00.000-04:00he wants someone FASTER spak...not someone that wi...he wants someone FASTER spak...not someone that will come all the way out talk some shite then give up before it's over...<br /><br />just saying.Peter Keillerhttp://www.misfitpsycles.com/blog/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8572555494322710549.post-68282702588427782042009-04-29T06:42:00.000-04:002009-04-29T06:42:00.000-04:00HMMMM I'm thinking road tripHMMMM I'm thinking road tripMatt Spakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16579590405047356546noreply@blogger.com
