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.

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

Seriously tho, Great job..

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

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'm still not quite sure why that dude thought that carbon aero wheels in a cat 5 race were a good idea.

Cat 5


Masters 4/5


Masters 4/5

....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....
