I wistfully remember when Chipotle burritos were 6.43 after tax and they didn't measure portions! I'd go there every single afternoon and occasionally I'd head to the Nickelodeon afterward to watch a talkie.

Basically if a burrito won the republican nomination I would vote republican and then probably get thrown in jail for eating the delicious president.

There's a family run burrito place near the job and it's excellent. Every ingredient is perfect, except the burritos are too big for work lunch. If I keep going there I am going to be even more of a slug in the hills.

Burritos should bring us all together, not tear our family apart.

your first post suggests there is something different about the translation. at least i interpreted your post that way. it's not an <insert nation> version of the UCI rulebook--it's the nation's rulebook.
USAC selectively applies rules from the UCI regs for national championships. i don't know what france or germany does (i take your word for it), but our NCs aren't subject to **UCI** regulations, as far as i've seen.

Yes. What I have read and heard. I have more work to do, but seems like they have two sets of books - so to speak.
UCI says race rules MUST be in English and French. Those are the only required languages.
Fix this before fixing the doping issue.

This the Turlock one? Looks like a funnish course, but I can't race tomorrow. 160-degree turn for corner one followed by a pretty straightforward rectangle. Will be interesting to see how turn one affects the last few laps.

with all the trail running and ultras…do those folks run down the hills? I never considered. They're proposing to have a have an ultra up around whiteface. It could be entertaining to find a steep downhill as a spectator spot. Maybe my youtube riches can finally come in.

Yeah Turlock. Pretty far so would have been nice to do 2 races, they have 3/4 and 1/2/3, but dammit I don't want to wait around 4 hours between races and get home at 11 pm!

I don't suppose you work in Davis Square and eat at the New Amsterdam Falafel do you? That place was amazing.
