Pyze sighting! I'd just finished making an ass of myself doing a 0mph clip-in failure onto the floor waiting for my buddy outside the store at Linsmore there

Sidi's are relatively cheap on PerformanceBike.com right now (19% off and there's a 10% coupon still working in the coupon forum). Genius and Dominator 5s IIRC are both in the sale with lots of sizes still available last I looked.

Cowbells and beer are an integral part of Cross. I am not sure if Wes went any faster up that run-up...it was pretty brutal...but ya gotta support the team!

Hahaha, nice 'shop Looked like a lot of fun

Looks like all of the upcoming race weekends I'm scheduled with my wee one, so I'm probably not able to make it out. She may get bored pretty quick if I were to bring her :S Would love to check it out though.

That would be the provincial championships (see the last item on Wes' signature).

I went up that hill significantly faster that time. Thanks again. ditto for when Tim was yelling at me with the megaphone on Sunday, although I actually enjoyed that run-up.

Pretty much anyone who races CX in the province will be there for that one. And I heard through the grapevine that Cycle Solutions will have really nice cowbells there for sale for very cheap (like a couple bucks)... AND there's a beer tent that the race course actually goes THROUGH. It should be good times.
