Dumb & dumber go to Hellyer

Ok so my first day at the track was a lesson of what not to do more then what to do.

1) Don't bring beer in bottles...duhhh. Next time sippy cups or cans.
2) Sun screen parts that the sun never sees, ankles, head, etc..
3) Gearing that actually fits- who the f- knew that there were two chains sizes...
4) Don't put all your gear near the edge of the cement. Water sprinklers are going wild. Where are the white tee shirts.
5) Don't walk on the grass with your Kenith Cole sandles, there's 4 inches of water that the grass is soaking in.
6) Don't borrow wheels and get to the track only to find out that there is no frickin way that you can pump the tires up.
7) Warm up---wtf???
8) Learn to look at the lap counter so you don't go one more at full blast in the 3k--its not 3.333k jack ass.

The coolest thing was the Team Pursuit. That was a ass woopin. It was like being in a video game on the tt bars, no brakes, no gears and flying up the wall...jesus...that was a blast. I'll do that one again.

If you can't pump up the wheels or need mechanical help, just start asking people for help, you will get it, 99% of the time.

Yhea, roadies and trackies were very helpful. I was just in the stupid box all day.

Thx,

If all the others were as funny as the beer one then I wish I saw them all.....

got lots to learn-looked like you rode pretty hard at Fayette. Good to see you at the races and congrats on the points race!

Damn...I need to find me a sippy cup then.

You forgot one... hang your snazzy bike on the track bar, so some dummy doesn't knock it over trying to get a beer out of the ice chest :)

Long day I know, but it was nice hangin' out with you two Saturday. I think you would have enjoyed (and smoked!) the team sprint on Sunday. Super fast, no tt bars, no banking... just pure speed.

See you in San Anselmo soon.
