Awe....


some....

MJH2 04-18-09 07:19 PM

Whoa. Nice pics.

I'm fat. I admit this. I still maintain, however, that I'm not as fat as those bibs make me look.

timmyquest 04-18-09 07:21 PM

I need to get my 1D fixed...that would probably lead to more awe some

I'm not worried too terribly much. I'm ok with being fat. We'll all look fat when the new kit sports celeste on the junk.

Psi- Nice job, but noticed you had the Garmin and the powertap on the bars. That Garmin probably weighed you down a bit..

Just sayin :D

Seriously tho, Great job..

timmyquest 04-18-09 07:53 PM

Weather aside, i'm out for tomorrow.

Oh, by the way

13mph winds
48 degrees
Rain

I'm definitely out tomorrow.

Psimet2001 04-18-09 08:01 PM

The powertap is really heavy. Heck I was racing on the Flyte frame with the new Rival build. Much heavier than my Giant race rig...and yet I am doing better. Like I've been saying though....I never lost a race because my bike weighed too much ;) :thumb:

I still want to go. the winds were getting up that high today so no whoop. the temp is no whoop....it's the rain. I hate rain, but if no one shows then it's a chance to do well and honestly once you're wet it doesn't matter anymore.

I was on your wheel a ton! Kept thinking...."what's this guy doing? OTF again?" ;). Nice job :thumb:

recursive 04-18-09 08:05 PM

timmyquest 04-18-09 08:35 PM

You know...at the two races i've been to this season, the rain came within an hour of me talking to Recursive.

Just sayin...:innocent:

....and the Masters 4/5 race winner for the glorius Hammer Gel prize!

Watched a lot of races today and had a good time! Suffered in the 4s - 1st race of the season, but did pretty well for 80% of the race where I tried to stay in the top 10 wheels. Somewhere around 2 or 3 to go, got stuck behind a slow mover who refused to move up while I was boxed in behind him. Ended up at the back of the field, and then gapped a bit and spent half the bell lap chasing back on and finally got back on at the top of the hill. Lungs were screaming and I had nothing. Saw Psimet come around me in the final turn as I rolling in.

Might be there tomorrow - weather dependant....
