TT fever...




Manchester Cycle Shop

Its where it all started, as a 13 yo kid I sucked at hockey, finished last at just about every BMX race I entered. I started going to this Wednesday night TT series. I started to get the hang of it. I also spent hours at the local bike shop, my mom should have paid them for baby sitting.

Got lots of TT's coming up. Get out there and do um...do um good! Good luck!

I can't wait for the TT's since I'm tired of guys coming up to me at my 35+ 4/5 races and giving me an "atta-boy" for pulling everybody around the course. Damn the torpedoes, I'm tired of guys enjoying a free ride. Pain is a dish best served over a TT course!

Nice, Michael. I'd bet that Joe Tosi might have had something to do with your early cycling. He did for me and my brother, and a lot of other riders back then.

Yeah, keep laughing :)

I'm getting my first lesson in Tactics for Dummies tomorrow morning with el vino

Hutch,

I know that you're faster than anyone I know on a TT bike, but I still don't see how you're going to make your 9:22 masters start time after an 8:51 start time in the P/1/2.

I know these nasty anon comments must sound like I am making them, but I promise I am not... :) IT may be my alter ego - the other chubby litle fucker we know (that is my guess).

The ride Wed. was great. got 125 in and felt pretty good on the final climb (hwy 9). Good luck this weekend.

I knew that was going to be a long one...

i'll be there for the distance next time. After Boy Holla and I did Haskins...I need more verticals in the diet.

TTs...On it!

Two on Sunday, 4 man and coed.
Then on to Exeter.

I loves me a ride on the goofy bike, as slow as I may be, I still love it.

Nothing like disk wheels and pointy hats.

Bike Racing 101: Don't Chase Down 2 teammates that have been in a hard break for half the race. Your best sprinter is in the move and he probably could of at least got second!

Bike Racing 101: Do you know how to block to help the break get farther up the road. True team mates know how to do this.

I hope you apoligized to your team.
