This, That and a Few Others

Remember Brad Cole running neck and neck with Tony W the last time cross was in town? Well, while Tony stepped it up with the Elite Men, Mr. Cole raced Killer B's and won. I think this says it all.

Details just in regarding TransIowa. We'll need to set an alarm for a really early start. Had a nice conversation with Matt W. during the CW Holiday Festivus. He wore the subtle smile of a man ready to ride 337 miles.

Butch has his Cycling Awards up for the year. I would like to add that honorable mention should be the Johnson's return to Lincoln, but that would just leave Butch to buy himself beer.

Need a stocking stuffer for the Hardcore Cyclist in your life? This will scratch the itch.

Good morning. Pass me a cup of Doper's Suck.

Me too, brother. Me too.

I have decided to map out 100 gravel miles then do it SS and then geared to see what I think.

and then I may still not know.

the 162 was easier on gears then 100 on SS. but the 162 was all big tail wind and the 100 was crossing and some tail.

but...after 150, there might be some SS payback. especially on your average speed.

I'm gonna go gears. That is, if I do it.

does kerkove care if we register geary and show up SS? i understand they are sep categories but that's just for ranking. any thoughts there snoby?

MW, last year you just needed to make the call before the start. I don't think we will need to worry about it when we register.
