Barriers and a Crisp Fall Breeze

Today was a pool of sweat and 100+ degree heat index, but oh so soon, barriers and cowbells will rule the day. (At least the feet were a bit better.) If it weren't for the Evil Unicorns, I'd be jumping out of my skin for October to arrive.

With Cross Nationals in KC, the excitement is even higher. Three day road trip and two races in which I can appropriately embarrass myself along with watching many of the best cross racers America has to offer. (Come on, Jon Page, come to KC!!)

Speaking of fast, Molly's working a fund raiser to help minimize the cost of a season's travel, including heading across the pond to toe the line at a World Cup level. She has two Vanilla frames on the block, one of which has a look that is near and dear to my hearts and stars.

Have you tried Superfeet or Specialized insoles? I juggle between these two brands depending on the shoe with good results. Barring that, dude, go buy some custom shoes. From what you're describing, you're on the path to destroying your feet permanently.

eSoles have made my road shoes feel like bedroom slippers. Just have to save some $$ to get 'em in my MTB shoes.

Those Vanilla bikes ARE sweet.

Oh Yeah - Molly is of the male gender, at least last time I saw him he was.

Molly is a transgender person. (Excuse my ignorance if I didn't say that the correct way.) She prefers to be referred to as a she.

See post from earlier this year.

Paddy, let's add yellow wristbands too.

WOW Is about all I can say. I stand corrected (confused and bemused) I saw her start near the last row at Cross Nats last year and pass most every guy to get on the podium. In Mens 30-34
