Sometimes when there is a race you would really like to be at but you can't it sort of clouds the whole day. Nope. Too tired to cloud yesterday. Yeah. A long pre-ambling way of saying I didn't do the Beer Cross in CT, but I hope lots of folks did. I like that course.
At some point I will get to the wrentham write up. Maybe.
I eeked out one extra frame on the camera's card for the ride in.
Wished I'd had a few more when I passed the Cove.
Swans littered about the water like styrofoam. Over 50 this year. One of these mornings I will stop and count. The most I've counted there in the past was 50. This looks to be more than that.
Another amazing sighting was the first three Brants were in the Cove too. Brants are probably my favorite bird of the winter season.
That and taking the scenic route along the water and avoiding the path up by the parkway made for a peaceful ride in. A wee bit later after dropping the oldest off for school but it was a gorgeous morning for a bike ride. Now I get to overthink how I will attempt to prepare for NoHo hoping to be able to have back to back Sunday races instead of a Saturday race and a Sunday race. The new wheels are here, just waiting on the new tires. Oh and I just recalled last year at NoHo someone rolling their Clincher off a rim after on of the rail road crossing jumps... Not only tubulars were rolling off last year.
Last thing to flush. Christine Vardaros's interview with Sven Nys is awesome. Amazing interview. I was falling asleep dead tired, but I managed to stay awake long enough to finish reading all of it. One of the best interview ever. Great stuff. A nice coffee sounds good right now. But I'll just make due with some water I guess.

Just drink the damn coffee. Your blog is turning into Sominex...
Hear hear! Spike that coffee with some colace.
Hey, I designed that interview and I still haven't seen it yet. You must be better connected. Coffee -- 70% decaf all week and 100% full strength for the races. Nice.
Yeah I got the magazine in the mail on Friday.
Grammo Tubolari CX wheels on the porch, CX Mag in the mailbox...
what a great day...
oh and if I can find 30 more seconds in the day i've got a theory to add about the coffee and how boring this place has been lately...
(assuming i can stay awake long enough to type it zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
yo' G, you should be able to use that new CXMAG to choose some tubies.
Did you check out the 2nd headline on cxmagazine.com this morning? yours truly made the front page (along with my CDN and USA club teams).
nice team scott!
I keep meaning to do one of those feltslave/todd wells "I wonder what scottyuscsb is doing"

i'm down somewhere in 80th place...

just sent a long comment and i dont see it. this is a tester.
shoot. ok, here goes a shorter version.
Hi steve - i got my cx mag copy last tuesday here in Belgium! Nice design work. I visited nys in his mobilehome last sunday in tabor and when i walked in, he was indeed eating plain pasta.
I gave him the copy and loved it - even before reading a single word. He then humbly asked me if he could keep the magazine. I said no because it was my only copy. (ok, so i lied. Of course i gave it to him.)
Thanks gewilli for the mention of the interview. I also put the tabor race reports on the cxmagazine.com site. More interviews are on their way by the way. We got some more BIGGIES! Oh, and i even got a smaller one who has a hankering for ho-ho's with peanut butter. He is actually a hoot. When i have a second i will scan his trading card and post it on my blog - or maybe cxmagazine's. What you will read on it will easily make you pee in your pants.
Kissies to you and the three girls!
