kenny, i'll be there...just signed up (if the bikereg list is accurate, i was #80)....i remember you at my first race last year in that suit (no dress, tho) at Spring Mount!

i entered figuring it as a good bridge between the devastation of Granogue and the next two i had already signed up for (Fairhill and Phelps)...if all the marrow in my bones isn't drained, i might do Spring Mount the day after Fairhill...

this being a Samhain/Hallow's Eve race, will there be plenty of zaniness? i guess wearing crazy socks might make one look less silly and ridiculous and pitiful when riding the cusp of DNF! i'll be wearing mine ;)

I'm doing the Bs this weekend. I usually finish in the 50s in the Cs, so this is going to be interesting. Weekend after, I'll be back in the Cs.

should be fun, just watch out for the beach run and steps up through an ampitheatre right after the run haha

yeah i caught the video of it (now posted on my facebook page)....looks like a power-addict's dream course...not really too technical. not ideal for me!

what type of knobbies would best? i have my new Crossfires on front and back....think it'll still be wet from the big rain wed? i have a Michelin Cyclocross Sprint...less knobby

yeah, it was...one i should've taken a little more seriously, but it was a last minute decision, it was close...and it was (as you said) not to my liking. which made it another training race and a chance to look at where i tanked and couldn't crank! nice chatting as always and meeting your girlfriend. when is she posting the photos? i've got mine up on facebook (available to 'everyone') if you want to check them out.

see you later somewhere else in the muddy/grassy vicinity. cheers
