Mergers and Acquisitions on the horizon....

We are alive mom's. Things around here have been buzzing away with the house and it seems things are starting to turn the corner and head down progress lane. I've been dealing with noisy neighbors, shopping for floors, computers, team stuff, selling liquid vino oh yhea and an occasional bike ride with my new stealth TT rig that's AWSOME!

I went and did the local weekend slugfest this past weekend to have a little extra motivation to make me go hard. I stopped by my favorite little Canadian's house for a pancake and bar tape. As a result, we missed the start of the group ride, no problemo...we caught the group in no time. I was hoping that little fire plug would of followed me so I had some company when I went off the front and got all the sprinter points, after all I'm a sprinter since I won the Masters crit. Funny actually its the only Master's crit I've won in a couple of years.

I was soooo happy not do do the Minden thing this year and stay home.


Anyway, -NEWS FLASH---Bagboys getting recycled. Bummer!
That little furry Pasco made me green with envy of the brotherhood he put together over the years.
It was pretty impressive- he was able to find both talented riders before they knew they were talented and he did pick a few cherries too..

I guess Roger Bennet is the one that first came to mind, he had a funny ponytail but man...that guy on two wheels after a couple of months of the Stahl ride could hand out some ass whoopin...and is always a nice guy, complements always flowin all sappy.

And Taz, that guy just looks like he is trying to rip off the pedals of every bike he rides. Track, road, TT...just pure power...

cherries too..
Hernando & Polson. Ok, OK, Hernando has done a lot more then any of us on and off the bike. That's why both you and I are here right???? Plus the trackies are getting a lesson in how to ride a bike, rather then just waiting for the fast twitch fibers to kick in. I've said it before, crit racing has changed around these parts for the better due to Hernando in my opinion (which is usually crap, except in this case). The sprinters like Laberge, Clark (where has he gone?), Nolan...etc who would use their teams or just wait it out, now have to be on guard and if they want the glory hole
they can't just wait until the last corner on the last lap.

Polson, crap man - pre Safeway I really don't remember him winning races every weekend. Hernando must have put somthin in his chamois or was it that silly glitter??? I want that stuff sent to a lab!
The first year the conjoined twins were together, they went to town and kicked everyone's asses.

Blah, blah, blah...

I really like most of these guys in Black and the AMD squad too..

I'm really bummed that I won't be racing more of the Cal Cup to give them a proper send off due to the track & worlds thing. Ah well I guess all good things must come to an end...or is it a new beginning????
