Yes but he does have an irrational fear of the combination of the words cat 5 crit.

....but not of a dangerous "road race" in which he basically finished top 10.

that means you must go off the front! Makes for great drama if you've got cameras facing both directions!

No Fear, that ColorChange....

;)


I've read this on here a couple of times now. Sounds like there's a story I need to hear.

I've also come to the conclusion that he's not scared of crits. If he is, he really shouldn't be cave diving. What I think he's scared of is getting beat!

On a related note, I'm on day 6 of a sore throat. I've also got congestion and a runny nose. Saturday's forecast looks like racing in the wet. This could be a miserable, miserable weekend.

A pox on you.

He'll be terrified of spelunking when he runs into these guys.

What did I do to deserve a pox?

Psimet2001 06-04-09 10:02 AM

For even mentioning the weather this far in advance.

MJH2 06-04-09 10:09 AM

That wasn't really me. I keep getting those updates from a certain BH rider who I'm attempting to shame into riding.

Although, I do think I'd be better off in the rain, anyway. I'm already feeling miserable. Why not level the playing field with respect to the rest of you speed demons.

ColorChange 06-04-09 05:27 PM

Go ahead and shame TQ into racing. Hell, I'll shame him too. :)

Psimet2001 06-04-09 07:52 PM

He's been racing.

Psimet2001 06-06-09 12:26 PM

I am on my way out there. See you guys there.

mridan 06-06-09 05:38 PM

Watched the 4's race today,talked to TQ he won the Cat 5 congrats!

Psimet2001 06-06-09 06:47 PM

I sucked today. That is all.

Ditto.

And, to make make matters worse I got nipped at the line by some guy riding for an obscure st charles bike shop that deals in over-priced italian goods.

If morale does not improve, I may take a long break. Like, until cross season.

Good weather - tough course.

Need to find a better connection so I can upload a few pix.

Still in Winfield .....

Psimet2001 06-06-09 07:28 PM

Wilke you got a place to stay? You cancl crash at my place if need be.

John Wilke 06-06-09 07:44 PM

Hey, thanks but heading home yet. Will hit the WI RR Champs tomorrow. Right now I'm in (I think) Carol Stream. Thanks for carrying the Peloton Cam!

(I'll touch that up with Photoshop when I get home. Looks kinda flat here on the laptop).

Looks like the 53x12 to me though!

Gonna upload a quick report on my site, then blast home on the Toll-bahn. It was a good day of racing!

Scummer 06-06-09 07:49 PM

That! is an excellent suffering pic of good ol' Psi! Well done.

See you there tomorrow. I wasn't planning on racing. But I'm a junkie. I can't get out.

Psimet2001 06-06-09 07:54 PM

Awesome! I was most likely in a 53x12. I was in it a ton on this course.
