There won't be anyone at Black Hill on the 22nd to register you, so try on the 23rd at Calga. Bring $188 + race entry fee with you.
As for the pump, I can get it to you on the 23rd, no probs. See you there

Doing a case study today in a tute at uni, It was on Timbuk2 bags. i dont think anyone knew what they were and no one recognised my bag
Should I post this in the fg forum and say timbuk2 are selling out? those threads usually get fairly heated

Ok, a guy at work made a reference to an act performed on a certain president from Arkansas by an intern. But he used the technically correct term. The 19 year old receptionist asked what the word meant. I told her to worry about it when she was married. So she looked it up on the internet, and then proceeded to tell us that she's totally cool with doing that. Apparently, anything that might make a baby is bad, but that act is good. Ok, we know it's good, I just didn't think those Mormon girls did that.

I used to work with a girl called Betty. really hot, but really nieve. one day shes listening to the radio at work and a Machine Gun Felatio song comes on back when they were popular. so anyways, at the top of her lungs, betty calls out to her friend shaun across the room " Shaun, whats Fellatio? " a very red faced Shaun waited till the laughter died down before suggesting that she googled it....

One of my old bosses, a woman, walked back into our all male work area exclaiming 'there's a crack in the womans toilets'.
She should have been specific and said that the wall was cracked. None of the boys could breath they were laughing so hard.

Commonwealth rr fellas, a Thunder take...
hitters:
in order
Rob Hunter
Greg Henderson
Gordy Fraser
Russel Downing
Ryan Cox
David George
Roulston
Gordy MacCauley
Perras
any of the Australians can podium, and fill out the podium, but South Africa have a strong team so won't be able to keep on attacking Hunter. They will be able to neutralise the attacks. Downing won a few races last year before breaking his collarbone when his Recycling team went over to race the Wachovia pro series. He will sneak under the radar, no one will know his face. If Fraser, Henderson or Hunter make it to the finish they probably have the chops to beat anyone bar Davis. And Davis will need to be well positioned or they can knock him off. Walker, Gerrans and especially Hayman have the speed to match if they get some luck and a better run, but straight up the others are known fast men who will win a match sprint.
Punt Road looks to be a mini San Fransico GP hill climb. It must almost hit 15% at the steepest and they cannot take a run at it with the turn off Alexandra Av. Those Guyanans might have to walk it by the 15th lap.
I think Walker will win on Punt road, and a 4 k solo like Carrigan, while the bunch of 6 or 7 look at whomever wants to chase. Davis playing the Golan role, except he wins the kick for second. Or it will be torn apart completely and the South Africans will be gotten rid of.

Gerrans out, shoulder infected, new surgery, ouch.
reserve team
Gene Bates ( SA), Shaun Higgerson (NSW), Aaron Kemps (Qld), Chris Sutton (NSW), Russell Van Hout (SA)
be a cop out to get Van Hout for a one day race when he won't ride the tt. Might say he deserves it and poetic justice, I would like to see big Robbie Maclachlan in. He won a stage in the Chinese Quinghai Lake stage race, this is like the tour in China. In the peasant distrcts the proletariat are crowded around the communal tv to watch this race.
If Van Hout, why not Milostic? I say give the big guy Robbie Maclachlan the bookend to his Barcelona Olympics. Or an under23 rider, Simon Clarke.
Russel "of wood" is a nice guy. That is about as much as I can say about his legs. "Carnegie Caulfield C grade crit".

10 Peter Dawson (Australia) 4.34.269
11 Rupert Rheeder (South Africa) 4.40.078
12 Amirrudin Jamaludin (Malaysia) 4.49.106
Finals
For bronze
3 Steven Cummings (England) 4.24.767 (54.387 km/h)
4 Jason Allen (New Zealand) 4.30.319
For gold and silver
1 Paul Manning (England) 4.23.799 (54.587 km/h)
2 Rob Hayles (England) 4.28.616
Jamo did a 4'30" when his pb was 4'22".
In defense, a flu swept through the track cyclists camp after nationals.
Still, disappointing ride by Jamo and Dawson. Well outside their pbs. Maybe all the road work is not helping them.
