Still looking

Still looking for that point in the year I actually feel like training. I hope that time is coming soon. Now that the kids are in summer camp and the weather is getting nice I might start turning the pedals a little more often after therapy is over. So Saturday we loaded up the van and headed to Mt Morris for the WORS big top show. Let me state right from the get go the start was bullshit, no climbing at all just ram everyone into the singletrack and get ready to wait, nice move. Two guys went down right away and the top 20 guys just rolled away. Oh well it was still a damn good time to be out riding and doing a few wheelies for the cheering section. Overall I really enjoyed the new course layout just throw the start hill back in to spread out a bit more.

I have a set of crankbros two piece skewers for sale: cheap only disclaimer they will not stay tight no matter what. Had to stop twice in the race to make the bike shift and the brake stop rubbing.

done for 2009

Man, glad that is over. The 12 hours at Muir is in the books and once again it rained on a Saturday. We figured it has rained somewhat ever Saturday for the last 6 weeks. So its a pretty good bet it will rain on Saturday the rest of the year. The race started at 8 am with sloppy mud trails, but Ronsta still cracked off a quick lap and had a nice lead that he worked all the way to the finish line. The trails dried a little every hour till the end of the day when they were solid. Thanks to everyone for coming out.

Done

damage

Well I seen the damage from the mukwonago torando yesterday. Lucky it wasnt thursday at 7:00 pm when it went through. The major damage was one block east of Craig rd on maple and went about a mile down maple. There were plenty of snapped off trees and power poles and wire laying down. As many know that is part of the thursday night beat down. Back to working on race stuff.

next week already

Well the 12 hour race is just days away. The extended weather forecast looks good. I just purchased 20 rolls of tape 3 pounds on chalk and plenty of post and signs. Insurance is paid for and garbage cans have been ordered. All the copies have been made and placed in the clip board. The awards are coming today and hammer gel is loaded. So that leaves get gas and weed trimmer line and grass seed. Hope to see you next Saturday.
