Where's The Weak Link?
 
Anyone know? Haven't seen a post by him in ages. He must be out riding his age or something.

Last I heard he was chasing down Vinokurov in Russia.

Oh that's right. That rings a bell.

Probably stowed away in a Siberian gulag by now.

Rumors of my incarceration have been exaggerated, but not by much:

I returned late last night from my mission as goodwill ambassador to the Ukrainian people for the Kentucky Mountain Bike Association:

As the Baron von Munchausen said, I realise that these tales are what lead people to believe I make all this stuff up, so here is proof-positive I was there:

The obligatory majestic church from Kyiv picture:

I can smell a bike store from a continent away:

For those of you a little rusty on your Russian, transalliterated into the Latin alphabet this place is called "Velo Mir" or "Bike World".

There were some goat trails that I think would have made fine MTB trails:

But I didn't get homesick as there was excellent American cuisine available:

That pretty much sums it up.

The world -our little world, anyway- is a better place today :D

maddmaxx 09-12-07 01:31 PM

Yippee.

Tom Bombadil 09-12-07 01:33 PM

Well Done!

Is that your little chalk drawing?

doctor j 09-12-07 09:17 PM

Your return was none too soon. Some of these old geezers are gettin' outta hand!

Welcome home!

Hermes 09-12-07 09:46 PM

Welcome back...great pics.;)

Looks like it was a fun trip.

Are the bikes there locally made or are they riding the same chinese bikes that we do?

Bud Bent 09-13-07 08:17 AM

The Weak Link became The Missing Link. Nice photos, welcome back!

Digital Gee 09-13-07 10:12 PM

Has anyone told The Weak Link we are officially moderatorless?
