Borrego Century

[Sir-Lanceimnot]

The century was great. It was a little cold at the start but nothing like Stagecoach! Had a pretty good day 5hr 15min. No pics...to busy ridding to take pics.:( Had fun and now I rest today.

I saw Voltman at the start and then later in the paceline that was going. No other BFer's that I saw. There was an OCRR there I think his name was Steve. Strong rider who set the pace early. I backed off after the second rest stop. Turned out he was only out for the 55 mile ride so, it is a good thing I dropped back or I would have been in real trouble at that pace.

[Sir-Lanceimnot]

Good for you, nice time. Not interested in trying to beat anyone’s time. I just ride for my own time and it is what ever it is for that day.

I haven't even said anything yet and already you're yelling at me!:mad:

Well I do not know why MRisaBTCH deleted his post but my response was for him. I suppose I have to start quoting the person every time I post.

The only thing I remember about that poster was his 4:43 time.

Would you belive I have never even had cosmetic surgery...It is all natural! :p

[mateo44]

I think volt should get some blue arm warmers to wear with that kit....

Or red, even.

[voltman]

He's planning on it. The team supply chain seems to be running slow at the moment.

So when are you guys joining?

[mateo44]

Soon I think. Is it $90 forever or per year? (I'm guessing forever)

Or a blue S-Works Tarmac, to go with that kit ;)

[mateo44]

Good point!

alot of the guys I race MTBs with are on that team. I say about a good 15-20 AFP riders show up to each race.

Nice team kit too:D

[voltman]

It's per year, with a new jersey every year. At least it's been every year for me. (One.)

[mateo44]

Gotcha, thanks. Still an amazing deal.

[voltman]

Or a blue S-Works Tarmac, to go with that kit ;)

But of course! :beer:

I wish Specialized had an S-Works TT bike this year. In the appropriate colors, of course.

[jsigone]

that doesn't sound too bad at all, maybe I'll join a team down here in SD soon:D

[voltman]

If they reimburse, it's totally worth it!

[voltman]

I think my bike is the right size now. But is my kit too big? :lol:

[jsigone]

If they reimburse, it's totally worth it!

gota be a Cat4 racer and above for that for the local team I'm looking at. don't think they race MTBs, not many do down here in SD, since all the races are in Riversideish/Big Bear area.

[OC Roadie]

But of course! :beer:

I've heard that the Specialized Transition (Tri-Bike), is crap, but I guess it doesn't matter, it wouldn't match the kit.

Nice team kit too:D
