I'll be sure to pack my butter churn and/or weaving loom in case we get cornered...

I guess that I will jump in. That's me smiling for the camera in Shelburne Fall, MA with trusty Merlin. The other is taken by my friend from Michigan who came out for a ride. I'm saying, "come on man, you're fall off the back!"

And that's a Diva, the girl version of the Orca. It comes in blue and magenta, too. The green (they call it pistachio) is my favorite.

Running scared. 60 man pack hunting my a55 down...
A few minutes after my jail break (moto ref has his head up my ass giving me a push):
40 miles and two hours later, looking emaciated and wasted at the finish - 5 minutes ahead of the field:

Wait! They actually have road races in Texas at some other place besides Austin? I guess its not as much of a cycling wasteland as I thought. If I have to move back there from SoCal, perhaps I won't be as miserable as I would expect to be.

Starting off a time trial, I'm the guy in front. The guy right behind me is a Cat 1 who only caught me at mile 20 of the 26 mile time trial, not too shabby for my first time trial ever.

I think this one from a couple seasons ago is the most recent one I have that someone took of ME on my bike at the finish...
