remember boys and girls, when you wear bike shorts to work because it's raining, bring some goddamned underwear! sure, i have a two extra pairs of socks, two extra sweaters, and even an extra belt, but now i'm stuck with a damp chamios - and not for any good reasons - for 9 or so more hours... *siiiiigh*
ps. yes, i know i'm a chamois and no, i'm not gonna go commando.

What Jeremy fails to mention is that this began a long, storied history of "Leopard Print Evenings" with his significant other. RERRRRRRR!!!

So I just got off the phone with Johnny who filled me in on Teddy's adventure on the weekend. After arriving in Kelowna he was supposed to catch a connecting flight to Kamloops. He missed his flight so then rode his bike for 9 hours on Saturday to Kamloops. Once he arrived he found out that the hostel he was meant to stay in was booked. With nowhere to lay his head down he spent the night in the local Tim Horton's intermittently dozing off and drinking coffee. He then headed out to the National's and finished in 6th. The legend grows. I also forgot to mention he did this on a borrowed stock Jake the Snake while all his competition was riding pimped out $6000 cross bikes.
Oh yeah....Yeti is now the official bike sponsor of Angry Johnny's Racing. I would tell you what the team deal is but you prolly don't want to know. Gonna put in my order for a new Carbon 575 and cross frame next week. You may want to put up a craigslist ad for the Planet X Wes.

Does one of your fixies have blue anodized rims? I thought I saw you, but couldn't tell properly - this was at 5:15ish at Queen/John last night.
Rain is always fun times, except when I don't have a spare pair of socks in my desk at work... doh.
