First race went way better than expected.
That was fun.
Dusty. Felt like I smoked three or four unfiltered camels.
Woman at the deli counter at Wholepaycheck said i needed a shower (stopped to do the weekly shopping on the way home). I'll get the photo up of the post race blogger shot.
Great to see everyone.
This morning everything sort of fell into place and the race happened. Then it was race time. The course was great. I ran those clinchers I really like. I lusted after Cronoman's 34 Cubus tires, but was HOOKED UP in the stuff with the Racing Ralphs. The old ones. I will say those new Rocket Rons look amazing.
SOOOOOO
happy that Jonny and Maaaaaahhhhhhhk didn't catch me. Stoked it took so long for Cronoman to catch me. To start off like that on a somewhat short course even if G-ride put 10 places into me and didn't blow like I did, is pretty killer. Those damn bastards in the 35+ race are getting faster and faster every year. I might be too. And that's not so bad. I'm still skeptical that I'll be happy on short cranks, esp with Garber's comments and 'Soups saying he notices a huge diff between 170 and 172.5. But ya know what? I'm okay with the experiment. We'll see what happens. Hey worst case I try to sell em for $250 and buy some Rival 180s and a GPX bottom bracket.
Race report later if I feel like it. Right now, i'm getting ready to fall asleep watching some football!
Cross season is here and it is good.

Hey JB - my wife got a great pic of Mark the Shark running around the barriers instead of over with you right in front of him! Too funny. No advantage left unpressed. So PRO!
