Kevin Molloy took the 123 Saturday race at Prospect, while JP Kaminski won the 3/4 race from a two up break.
Sunday I know nothing about as I was doing Easter Bunny duty. I did see a picture of Ken Harris with shoe covers on though. Feel free to fill in the blanks for the rest of the weekend.
Ooof, hard working Schmalz there. Mengoni gets first win of the year Sunday with Amauri Perez. Tadeusz Marszalek wins the 3/4, David Taylor the masters.
Alvaro Arnal wins Sandy Hook, Westwood Velo kicks butt, roller race king Gui Nelessen takes 3rd overall on a fixie. SouthAfrica.net now has two big diesels. I battle the registration table to a tie.
But the real big news: Jason Bremer’s a tri geek?? Come back, Jason!
We made the front page of the New York Times!.
RIGHT ON! 4/14/07 and still no results of 4/8/07!
If AVD posted the results as fast as he takes in the money, the results would be posted the SANE DAY.
Hey, it’s late on 4/13/07, how come AVD has still not posted the results of the 4/8/07 races in Central Park?
Wake Up AVD, or did you retire on all the money you make on the Spring Series?
…are a bag o’ worms.
This site sucks big NY Upstate Hardmen
dude, if you were an upstate hardman, you would have two sets of wheels so you can switch out the wheels rather than regluing the tires. This is why you are a NYC Mr Softee.
This message brought to you by Mr Softee Soft Ice Cream, available on a street corner near you.
I’m so pro
Let’s color code that comment and assign a logo to it.
Screw basic decency! I want to flame away. Everybody who is riding battenkill is a sandbagger!
Fuck off, asswipe.
Maybe I’m an idiot but I don’t see NYVelocity or a name I recognize in the Times article. What’s the connection other than the basic relevance?
is that it takes too long to reglue them. A lot of my cold weather trainiing kit is black and yellow, but my team kit is red and blue, and regluing on diff tires to match the clothes was getting old.
Lets talk about Ken’s illegal wheelset!
Yeah, that’s why Ken dropped you; it was his wheels.
Feel better now?
Ken envy.
Anyone riding B-kill on a fixie? I don’t want to risk a mechanical.
Sorta. Looking forward to getting dropped. Gotta get teh first crappy race performance out of my system.
come back to bed, dear… and bring the peanut butter.
NYC/NJ guys did fine at this race the last 2 years.
think people are looking forward to b’kill?
I’m old school. Still running the 9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9 with a 42 up front.
Upstate Hard Man sounds hot.
I’d go with grapeseed oil for sure…light consistency, high flash point, no smoke even at high cadences…er…temperatures. And very little residual taste.
With all 11 cogs. It’s an 11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11.
But for Battenkill I’m thinking of putting a 12 on the last spot. Is that a good idea?
Does anyone have a pave helmet I can borrow for BR? A bad helmet choice at Battenkill can cost you the race.
I put peanut butter on my tires before the climb for more traction. What is the best tire to not clash too badly with a creamy all natural style peanut butter?
Also would you consider canola oil an appropriate chain lube, or is extra virgin olive oil better?
I’m going to run a 9-28 – I heard that’s what Boonen ran at the Ronde this year. I’m also going to put on a chain guard so I don’t get a lion of Flanders flag stuck in my drivetrain as I go through the throngs of fans.
Andy,
Nice job in the TT this weekend. Your time was really good.
Better than me.
Peanut butter is OK and might get you through the race, but crunchy almond butter works best on the pave.
That’s all I got on that one.
I hope it matches the frames on my Oakleys
Who ever wrote the last post is a tool. Why dont you just keep your pretty Euro bike (with tubular wheels I am guessing) and Snooty NYC racing ass home and do us all a favor. The upstate NY hardmen wont miss you dangling off the back.
BR Road Conditions – what kind of gloves should I wear? should I go with my dark or yellow Oakley lenses?
OMG I don’t have a custom Shimano 11-25
BR Road Conditions – Are the big dirt roads earlier in the race or throughout. Looks like a nasty climb at mile 10 that could really split the groups.
Rode BR this weekend. Dirt roads were in good shape. Had regular 23 Maxxis on front wheel and Vittoria on back wheel. It was no problem.
br gearing . go with a 12-25 if you dont have an SRAM 11-26 or a custom shimano 11-25. it could be sloppy and the climbs can be steep.
tires, vittoria pave green many have used. also conti sells a 7×25 competition popular at PRoubaix. vittoria also makes a clincher 7×24 csc clincher. a bad tire will cost you the race.
Says who?
we do rule 🙂
Which category? As I recall, NYC did just fine up there last year.
Battenkill – I was interested in the 3s, 4s and Pro 1-2.
Any recommendations for the dirt road passes and choice of gear? Vitoria Paves seem to be the tire of choice…
Any chance of a NYC /WC rider winning Battenkill Roubaix this weekend?
DC go home.
Maybe the winner of the 3/4 and leader of the 3/4 who is a DC racer? Or maybe just one of the millions of DC fans out there?
Who is the anon guy who’s always talking up these DC people? I wonder who…
Check out the Sandy Hook results – the Royal Potty smoked the TT!!!
JP – Nice Ride to you and Jon W. See you on the dirt roads of Battenkill Roubaix!
Now hiring.
DC Racing Rules!
My teamate was also in the break taking 2nd
To set the record straight, Bremer is still one of us– he hasn’t gone to the other side. He did the bike leg of a triathon relay team.
Would it threaten our manhood if he crossed over?
