49th Nevada City Classic


Just another day at the office. Hanging on the start line with Lance

Lance telling me about the Giro...apparently its a great weight loss program

The bike race was a blast. Crowd, 30,000 strong was unbelievable. I was shocked how good my legs felt...just had some bad luck and got stuffed behind a crash...just did not have the strength to chase back on...next time. I am fired up to race bikes again. I dont think I will ever forget yesterday. I have raced with Lance several times...but there was something magical about yesterday

More Rock Lobster!


Little bit of an "S" bend in the stays...cool
Check the drop outs...sick
Again, I dont even know what to say. These things are damn sexy! I cant wait to ride / race these things. Hell, I want to build 'em up and stare at them!

R.I.P. Mr. Steve Larsen

http://www.veloreview.com/obra3/2009/05/in-memoriam-steve-larsen.html/

I wish I was not posting this link today. Steve Larsen, cycling legend, occasional training partner , respected person and athlete passed away last night from a heart attack.
You will be missed. Mine and my wife's sympathy goes out to you family. 39 years young. Husband, father, fit as you could be, still tearing up anything he tried.
Cycling has lost a good one. I dont get it
