tangs to san pedro it is. hell, ill even wear spandex and a helmet, if i can find one to fit on top of all my hair.
So was I...big deal. Why would you take offense to that? You're pretty thin-skinned for someone who likes to stir things up.

i chose to take offense to it for the same reason you chose to try to offend me by making the original comment.

no, I rarely can be provoked into a fight or a race. If you want a dance-off, I'd consider it.

What is this obsession you have with racing? Did you see Grease too many times or something?

It seems once you get something in your head, you just won't let it go.
OK, I'm doing the 40K TT at Piru next Saturday (May 31st). I'll be in the Public 35+ category but there are two Fixed Gear categories as well (Open and 80" & Under). Come on out and see if you can beat me. Let's make it more interesting...Loser reimburses the winner for his $25 Entry Fee.

You would only pay if you lost.
Edit...and you would.
Edit #2 - How about this? I will pay your entry fee. If you win, we're square. If I win, you have to get down on your knees and kiss my lycra-clad, 41-year-old ass...and have a photo of it taken for posterity.
What's your next wussy excuse?

Tangs to San Pedro. Beers at Cabrillo Beach after. Loser has to kiss the winner.

Why does perceived complication frighten you? beer can be consumed anywhere. Nothing easier than having CJbruin sign ggallin up for the race and having it official. I personally would pay big bucks to see the obvious loser kiss the obvious winner's 41 year old ass anyday. I'll even pay both entry fees and buy first round. How's that? Not to complicated I hope

Tangs Donut is in Silverlake, California at Sunset and Fountain. San Pedro is a little under thirty miles south of there.
Cabrillo Beach (alternate possibilities: Pt. Fermin park, Royal Palms State Beach) is a nice place to drink some beers after racing thirty, especially when said beers are provided free of charge to racers by user: Placid Casual.

Not bad. I suggest we do both. In for a penny, in for a pound.

Ok, fess up.. who was in the Red Bull kit this morning, riding ON the tiny median between the north/south traffic? (he had already come out of the tunnel)
This is starting to get amusing.
Seen someone last week too. On the south bound side I thought doing circles in the left turn lane, but maybe they were on the median. It was hard to tell as I was headed north in the far right lane.
To answer the question of anyone riding through the Sepulveda tunnel. We had a huge turnout on our weekly ride in Venice. Went through LAX and the aforementioned tunnel.
Here's a video.. Enjoy
