CX Season is Over

Cold Forging begins! I actually took an entire 6 days off my bike. After complete boredom I went to the gravel grumble last Sunday.

Pain and suffering! Oh I am so burnt out!


Tears were shed, large fragile egos were crushed, careers of greatness ended, no drop rules were broken, and the forging once again started. Nothing is better than cold forging! Nothing!

OUCH!

Sharks In the Water

So my performance lacked this weekend. However the fan club did not!

For having 2 shitty days on the bike I sure did have a lot of people cheering for me. Thanks.

Bringing the WEAK GAME!

Mills what are you doing in the B race?

2 UCI points

Went to Iowa City, IA this last weekend

There is one hill in all of Iowa. We raced up and down it both days


Good time were had by all.

That is Nolan. His head was to big to fit in the picture.

While finding a place to eat in downtown Iowa City the wife and I saw this in a book store window.

How kickass is that!

I suck

No UCI points for me. I finished 11th and 11th in North Carolina........fuck me! Saturday I was sprinting for 7th in a 5 up sprint and finished last. Sunday, my head got stuck up my ass at the start and I spent the entire day on the chase. '

Fuck.

Fuck UCI Points!

Halloween Cross was a good time



Beans has more photos...

Halloween CX OCT 31,2007

Thank Professor Green Beans, PHD.

Thanks to Bud and the boys for putting on a great race.

OHIO

No fucking UCI points. I suck.

Saturday can be described as Shittyday. I finished 27th out of 15 riders. Terrible Terrible Terrible. Small Midgets with fat arms could have done a better job.

Sunday can be described as better. I finished up in 14th and restored my ego to it's large sized state. I was less than 10 secs off of the 8th-13th group.

I also learned this weekend from Mr. Worlds that I say Wisconsin like a redneck. I hate to break to Mr. Worlds but I am a redneck.

Kyle was there also getting extra butter and cream on everything he ordered. He makes me look like a healthy eater. Kyle that is a bad thing.

Kyle get a blog so that I can stop referencing the crash pic so much.


Next Stop "The Ryan Pirtle Invitational".........I think RP has been secret training this year.

Newton, Iowa

I finished 1st on Saturday but I crashed the living shit out of myself about 15 times. Fuck acorns.......and then I lost the beer lap.

Sunday I was 2nd but to be honest I should have just stayed home. I fucked myself up good and right in Saturday's race.

Oh well hopefully all my bad luck is behind me...











www.jj-bailey.com gives a nice overview of his greatness for the weekend.

Michigan

I finished 15th and 13th........No UCI points

My buddy George aka "Double G" keeps track of his adventures HERE

Hot dogs and Kegs

Here is one Cue-ball Smith post state 40k TT. I convinced him to ride back to Columbia.


Matt Smith gets a second at Super Week in the Crash 4s.

My understanding is he lived up to being the original "pavement magnet" the next day.

Somethings do not changes.

Bike Porn #2

I got my first frameset for CX together this week. I went with the CADD9 CX Cannondale. I rode around the block once tonight on the fresh chip-n-seal and the thing is sweet!

Here is the photo shoot. I went with a more Knitting Circle friendly theme this time. I can't have my fan club thinking I don't listen to their feedback


Look at that Red Seat! I know it looks like shit.



Otis and Bubba are still around. Bubba refused to be on a blog post with knitting circle magazines.


I need to cut back on my blogging.

I did a MTB Race

I don't miss MTB racing much. I pretty much sucked. I was slow in the woods and pretty much was in the way. According to Dan, from Route 66, my bike is old. NO SHIT! It is not even mine.....it was borrowed. I did make $20 so not all was lost. I might pick one more MTB race up this year......maybe

Is it CX season yet?

Ward

I spent a week in Colorado doing some riding and hiking. On the 4th I rode down from Estes Park to Boulder to meet up with the over 6'2" ride. We rode up Left Hand Canyon to the little town of Ward.

Once in Ward we got to see the Annual Ward 4th Parade! The photos do not do this thing justice!


Is that Nelson Vales?


Very Creative!


Who says POT has side affects!





Ummmmmm Drugs are bad......

At one point Ward had the most PHDs per cap. I am guessing their kids didn't not follow in the same foot steps.

Link to WARD

Oh yeah the locals were shooting fireworks out of the fire truck during the parade. It was very surreal as bottle rocks would fly into the crowd and explode. Fucking nuts.....and the fire danger was listed as "High".

Look at those MAN TITTIES!!!!

How to Noodle

How to noodle

• A blocker holds a catfish in its nest, usually a mud hole or a log.
• A diver allows the fish to bite his or her arm then grabs the fish.
• Someone holds the diver’s feet, then pulls their head above water.
• Another stands ready to tie a rope around the gills of the catfish.

My new bike..........

So my new bike has arrived!

Here are some pics











To bad Mike didn't name the shop "Big Dick's" or "Big ........" You get the point.

Oh and Bubba is still around


and Otis

In other news... Johnnnnnny Merli, aka #2, broke his dick last week. I can only describe the story behind the dick break as masturbatory in a nature but just a really bad idea in reality. Good luck #2, we are all pulling for you.

What I learned in Springfield

Suck it

So my blogging has gone to shit. This new work atmosphere pretty much keeps me busy. I am sure in some weird way that is good but fuck.....it sucks. I am thinking here in the next 6 months BOCOMO will get above 25 degrees and all will be right in the world.

Brad Huff you suck.

Cyclocross World Championship

Shit is blowing up!

For the record Brad Huff Still Sucks


And my office moved..........fuck I have been busy at work. My surfing time went from a solid 8hrs to less than 5 minutes. Fuck I haven't looked at porn for god knows how long! Fuck and on top of that I work in a more professional environment now......I have had to limit myself to saying "Fuck" no more than 5 times a day. That is fucking really hard to do when you have been cussing like a sailor since birth.

In other news...I have mastered the art of riding my fixed gear on ice! Bring on the shitty fucking weather!

More Cold Forging at 50 degrees!

I am actually spending some time on a fixed gear this winter. With any luck my cadence will increase from 20rpms to 22rpms. Hello fast twitch!



Hey Thompson, how is that great Boulder winter training going?

BOCOMO Cold Forging has begun!

Notice....the "power food" in hand



Oh I got another dog..

His name is Otis and he doesn't stop moving hence the blurry picture...I will try again later.

Bubba as always is still keeping it real.
