One big A-hole

Stick a fork in him, he's done. This dude just won't go away. You got popped, go home. Facts are facts and you thought you couldn't get caught for taking an illegal substance, but ya did. Why does this guy keep going with this crap of "I didn't do anything wrong, I'm going to race next year and why would Quick Step ever want to cancel my contract." You got caught not once but twice during a race where you dominted Fabian Cancellara in the TT and climbed the biggest mountains with the best when the only thing you've ever done in the past was be a pretty good classics guy. Everyone who watched the tour this year knew you were doping the second we saw you race. Give us all a break from the doping courts cases that are strung out over many years, go back to beer fest for two years and then maybe you might be good to race again. Everyone on your team says you were taking these drugs, your own teamates are ratting you out. The UCI and ASO should sue you for defamation of their name.

Flanders - Koppenberg?

Intense. Looks like a good place for a cat. 4 race. I'll look into it.

Ridiculous

I had always heard from people that the classics races were intense and the cobbles were ridiculous, but I never really knew how bad. I heard Randy Owens down in G-vegas, SC talk about his trip to Belgium and France. He was talking about these cobbles and how they were insane. I've watched the Paris-Roubaix on TV and watched all those crazy dudes crash like it was their jobs. However, I just thought these guys were just a bunch of pussies and complaining about a few bumps in the road. I mean, I've gone over the cobbles down on Freemason in downtown Norfolk and they weren't that bad. I was bored just a minute ago and found this picture, all I can say is damn. How can anyone possibly ride over these things at race pace and not eat it hard? This is the kind of thing that makes a man; if you can ride this and not crash you are one of the best bike handlers in the world slash a cyclocross racer, who are also some crazy dudes. That being said, best of luck to big George this year in Paris-Roubaix. He's had the worst luck in this race while probably being the strongest rider in it about 6 times.

Today was a break from the really cold stuff, I know Jim you're from Alaska and I don't know what cold really is but whatever. Its only gonna make me colder tomorrow when it goes back to 35 degrees. Pretty stoked on racing, looking at pics from the summer and can't wait to get there again.

I'm Fin tired of Marketing


I saw the revenge version on Tkarnes blog and I pretty sure I gotta have em. Probably won't get em soon since its not really the season for white, gotta wait to pull the white sidi's back out before I can be rocking white bibs.

The Trophy!!! Get Ready

Now I hope everyone can see my vision, the only cost necessary is to purchase a really really big trophy like this one that apparently went to the creepiest marching band tuba player ever. Guys and Gals if you intend on winning this race leave some room on the roofrack for the trophy. This thing just screams F you! just try and fit me in your undersized SUV.
