pcad, if my race plans work out as expected I will be a 4 by the end of July.
race 7 -6/19 race 8 -7/3 Race 9 -7/4 Race 10 - 7/10 maybe 1st TT 7/11 Race 11 - 7/18 then maybe 2 mid Aug Should I upgrade ASAP or wait till the end of the year (almost all the fields around my are combined 4/5 anyway)? |
Just don't crash.
I am pre-registered for the 35+ race in Prospect Saturday, along with 60+ other guys. That means the field will be full (I think the limit is 100). That's a big field. That's good for Uncle Pcad. Plenty of wheels to grab. Slightly more crash danger of course. |

Still no garmin... I'm getting excited and kinda worried that it got lost/stolen from my porch.
A great coworker of mine gave me a book; Bike Racing for Juniors. That was really nice, I've read some so far and it's quite interesting. |
By the way, a 35+ race is just like a 1-2-3 race, but with more pathetic 50 year old morons gasping at the back.

They should have 50+ races. Maybe I'd give it a try.
Naaaaaaaaaaaaah! |
Hey mike - don't suppose you want to make your way out there? [Cape Cod in July]
Cross posted from junior thread in case you look here. |
In the TT's I do the 45+ guys are often faster than the 35+ guys. I'll be more competitive in the 55+, two years away (my racing age is 53 this year). In the meantime I'm racing myself. Besides I really riding that TT bike.
Hey, not for nothing, but my time Saturday was only good for 6th out of 7 guys in the 50+ TT Sunday. In the Cat 5 field I would have been 7th out of 15 guys, or faster than half the field, and most of those guys are much younger than 50. In other words the old guys aren't so slow (besides me). |

Hey pCad, 40K was kind of disappointing. I expected more out ouf you.
On a side note, I had seafood sausage tonight. Very good. |
Pcad finally got his 40k post. Not that I know any of you but I am relatively happy about it. And now we won't have another BF party for another 10k posts....about a week?
