WOW!! a cat4 racer named “cesar” got 5th place in the 123 invitational!! WOW! that’s so inspirational.

Yup- He’s a teenager, and is Pollo’s son. Watch out for him- You’ll be looking at his rear wheel for years to come.

CAT 3 race DQ – Urinating during the race…Really? come on, its a 50 mile race that takes 1:45! guys really need to stop watching NBC Sports before these races. There was even a guy that had his own “feed zone” on lap 2!!! And the touching that goes on…there were more asses being touched in this race than in the Rick’s Cabaret champagne room. For the love of god keep your hands on your bars!

tacks

Hey you pretend Tour De France / Border Line Drug Dopers, I have a box of titanium / carbon fiber tacks waiting to dispense during your next race…hehehe

People were complaining about the mixed 4/5 field but on the flip side the decision to give the women their own race was great….both for them, and for the masters. Although we did pass them the field was small enough and significantly slower that it was totally safe to overtake them….unlike when a Masters and another mens field get mixed up and it’s tough to sort it out. A win-win for both fields. Horace, please do the same thing this week!
