What was your goal? I climbed it Saturday, and missed mine by only 35 seconds.

I just broke a tooth. Don't got no dental insurance. There goes this month's social security check. Was about to place a big bike parts order. Oh well.

Get to the top in 2 hours or less. I'm not very fast.

Hamilton Classic? Did we race together? What category are you?

Today I raced a criterium with an 81 person field and won.

I got my fingers crossed until the end of the year. But I already have zero expectations.

Just called my dentist's office, and it's closed until next week. Gotta htfu and hope I don't get an infection or abcess until it gets fixed.

Off the bike 2 days now with a bum achellies tendon, caused by a old injury together with a mega mile ride over just about all of creation. Loved it but paying the price... Hate being old sometimes.

Ha, no I'm just a cat 6 :-P the race was on Sunday, yeah? I climbed it on Saturday. I go on Wolfpack rides occasionally though, I think we met there once.

No, but he came in 4th. He didn't lead me out. I pretty much used some other random team's sprinter that was led out too early as my lead out :p

Maybe not fast, but not slow either. You would have beaten most of my friends that I rode up with. I was one of only a few to be under 2 hours in our group of 8.

Oh whoops, I got my days mixed up because of the long weekend. I need to make it out to wolfpack again one of these days. I got to take off work then make sure it isn't in the East Bay on the last Monday of each month.

Yeah I don't get out to it as much as I'd like either, lately. Just checked out your Strava for the Hamilton race, damn! Nice work!

Gino is ****ing quick.

Yeah I improved like 10 min off my previous time, so I'm sure I can do it. I forgot to take the time at the bottom of the climb, so I didn't know how much time I had left.

Visited my local toy store, VeloMine, and drove away with a new rear wheel, finely bars and stem, couple cogs and a Campy knock-off crankset.

TejanoTrackie 05-26-15 01:47 PM

Today my demented nearly blind elderly woman neighbor accused me of being the cause of all the dirt on her back yard pavement, claiming that I had caused it when I cleaned mine, which I did years ago with a pressure washer. She also called me a liar and said I had done this recently using chemicals, and was going to hire a lab to prove the point. She threatened to get a lawyer and sue me if I didn't pay the cost of cleaning her pavement. Man, I am really pissed off.

Mumonkan 05-26-15 02:02 PM

but i know what a headache insane people can be, i deal with them all the time...

Thing is, she is probably crazy enough to hire a shyster lawyer to take me to court, which could force me to spend money on legal representation. Otherwise, she could get a default judgement if I didn't appear. Either way, I lose.

Kill her then. Win win.
