Not that I intend to be contending many sprints, let alone 3-4 ones.

Nobody in particular. I just started weighing risks vs benefits of crit racing (90+ percent of USAC races around here are crits) and it just wasn't worth it to me anymore. Not that there was one specific person or team, it's just that there seemed to be at least one decent-sized crash in just about every race. It just quit being enough fun to justify the risk of messing up my hands/face and being out of work. I figured my patients wouldn't appreciate the injuries as much as my teammates.

Not sure why that's a key word, but yeah--I just didn't have the time or desire to commit to the mod gig anymore. It's much more time-sucking and thankless than many would think.

Well, pretty much the only thing my dogs can do reliably is sit and stay. So my wife was doing the sit/stay thing with them with a treat in each hand, which was enough of a flail that my daugther was entertained by it. Like I said, that pose lasted about a half second.

In other news I had an R600DuraAce sighting on another forum. Only the name has changed.

unless there has been a name change, I don't think the USAC has seen R600DA in the past 3 years either.
