This is a noob.

What is a noob? Am I a noob?

The first rule of Rockleigh is you don't talk about Rockleigh.

a's raced like a bunch of soggy bitches tonight

how can one be "usually the only noob"

How long can you be a noob for at Rockleigh?

so the ww guy is at fault? what does he have to do with the fight tonight?

It is. This WW guy is usually the only noob there. For example, tonight was awesome. A bunch of break tries, then 2 guys stayed away and a very competitive field sprint.

everyone said rockleigh was so "cool" and "mellow?"

Wow. A near fight at Rockleigh in bike shoes. That's almost like a near fight at the Tour de France in bike shoes. Those guys must be very good LOCAL racers. Olsen should eat more fiber.

I heard testosterone can get you from a Cat 3 to a Cat 1 to a Cat with no balls in a hurry.

if you look at the names there are masters racers in there who have more experience and fitness than most of the p123 combined..

that's kinda messed up. and seems like it made for a really small 123 field. It's a training race, c'mon, step up.

bullshit any cat 3 could train harder too. what i am saying is that there are alot of cat 3s sandbagging you all know it too

All any cat 4 has to do is train harder, race smarter, and work with your team. We are not that good and would be pack foldder in the 123s.

If you can't do that wait for a 4 only race, which you also won't place in..

Sometimes its fun to be at the front Kissena!

I said strong cat 3s Dan :)

here's the original version of that conversation. a classic:

Never! (You were talking about me, right?)

look through the names. a lot of strong 3's sandbagging in the 3/4 race. shame on you all. get yer ass in the 123s!

thanks,

Wonder Wheel to Victoria's Secret

Don't know his name, tall and skinny guy with an accent.

Florian, which WW rider are you anonymously reporting dialog on ,Ken

Is Wonder Wheel similar to Wonder Bra???

How dare Greg! No one "de-digests" bigger racer-sized nuggets than I!

What is a top of the line racing bicycle to purchase for criterium and road racing? I am little bit confused with all the reviews and specs out there. Money is no problem, my budget is $8,000.

I agreed with most of the WW cheesing here. That said I did observe a WW rider threaten to "fuck up" Olsen at Rockleigh last week, to which Olsen retorted that he "has had shits bigger than" said WW rider. All in all, it was a superb exchange.

are the best. Nicest guys in the peloton. Miss yall

but why were you guys racing 3/4, instead of 123?

Ken and crew always keep it classy. Plus, their motor is 50+ and races 123.

I thought Kenny and his crew raced well, they made all the important splits and if they had gone with the initial break I tend to think there would have been more chasing to bring it back.In the end they conducted themselves like gentlemen and raced safe.

Wonder Wheel has riders who were winning races when Floyd Bennett was a full-service airport. Show a little respect!

Well played Ken.

Ken here, for the WW team. We were mildly disappointed without a top ten spot last night despite the windy conditions and having (not 6) 8 guys in Charlie's 3/4 Tuesday night training race. The names are Marc, Dennis, Chris, Tony,Nate, two Johns and Ken. JJ smoked the field sprint, The break of two worked well to succeed. Congrats. In the 1/2/3 race we are happy for WW Doug getting a spot. Looking forward to Dan's report. Our team represents our sponsor on and off the bike. We vouch for them all. One thing about publicity, at least the anonymous posters spelled our name right. Everyone has an opinion.

Anyone calling people pussy in here should be brave enough to post with your name. You are the real pussy for posting that comment anonymously.

Looks like the guy who went down was simply not protecting his front wheel. Guy in blue moves left, crasher doesn't notice and BAM, down goes Frazier. The Bauer guy pays a big price for someone else not paying attention.

Deno's Wonder Wheel team raced like pussies in the FBF 3/4 race yesterday. They had 6 guys in the field, no representation in the break, and they still couldn't get organized to chase. They suck!!

Not really sure what happened, looks like a mishap due to close quarters.

schmalz that crash video is nuts!

what happened, guy in front overlap wheels/accidentally hooked?

i love the grunt from when the camera rider ran over or maybe bunny hopped the fallen rider. "oooopmh...."

Racing the 3/4 field. C'mon guys. Some of you need to be in the big boy field.

On a different note. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1Yvfrjw5xQ

Lots of guys racing out of town.

What's up with FBF yesterday. I can count on two hands and two feet how many riders were in the 123 field. Must be the price hike...go figure.

Ah, well that explains that interestingly worded e-mail from the Strava owners I recently got.

This may be one of the most absurd things I have ever read...

I may go out and hit 130 mph in my car and then sue Infiniti if I get caught since the speedometer goes up to 130

Anyone is eligible for a UCI licence, but they cost $90. You do however get a road/CX/MTB licence all in one. a regular road licence doesnt not let your race MTB

We always have to be different... with the USCF, miles vs kilo's.

Gerard to Mengoni

there are a few companies that do it. Nokon is probably the best and most used

I actually hold a UCI Master 2 lic!

Mmmm...donuts....

what is the name of the housing that looks like cable ends put together?

Gerard Yeates is a seasoned rider from Canada, he has been racing for years at the Elite level..

Old school Canadian who has been throwing it down since Cadet days.

He won the 35+ in Harlem with a one day license. Cat 5?

Video of the Men's 2/3 field (prior to the 15 minute intermission due to a crash) is available here: http://team.sixcycle.com/2012/06/17/harlem-crit/
