Thanks.

Thanks to all on this subforum who have offered their ideas, insights, experiences and critiques on a wide range of interesting topics.

Thanks for the support and congratulations that are offered up to everyone who has success or failure in racing, training and life.

Thanks for keeping it fun, civil and respectful (mostly).

I know it's just an internet forum, but we all find meaning in different ways and from different resources. This group we have here in this subforum deepens my experience. True.

So, thank you and keep it coming.

I truly do appreicate it. I may well be the slowest "racer" (if one race can qualify me) here. Yet I train in the time I have available and am trying to overcome 25 years of sloth and folks here have been very helpful none the less.

Thank you...

I'm gonna cry now.

Not really.

I think we all know way too much about each other for that. You think I'm going to let WR go anywhere in the last 3k? Or any of the diesels go early? Or RacerX go anywhere period? Not a chance

Yeah, there are a lot of times I'm hoping that certain Texans aren't following me around on BF. Based on races this season, the ones who are following my BF posts aren't yet equipped to put the intel to use. But yeah, it would be a pretty funny race among BFers with few surprises.
