BIG Stones

I tore my ankle up once and was out for six weeks. Martin makes all of the Masters division stoked to race him. Those are some BIG stones boys & girls.

Martin, I'll have a cold beer for you.

Rental cars are harder to predict than local women hanging out in bars. Some go as planned and some don't. Alamo did have that rate but it disappeared. Check Breezenet.com for the dates you need since that compares 6-8 different companies. They have a last minute section there too with a direct link...

Hey Pat,

Will the CSA be posting the sign up, A La NCDSA so riders can see who's coming, etc? There is one on NCDSA but that was "unofficial" and seems dated. It's always nice to see who's coming so you know how much extra beer to buy.

Flat

What you really need to work on is your pump. I am sure there has to be some big flat parking lots with good pavement around. If you can learn to accelerate on flat through your pump then the battle is over when looking for speed in a course per se. That's what I did when I got back into this sport....

I believe that Bara is assessed the first mandatory "Buy the next round" penalty. He mentioned actual politics. The only politics I actually enjoy are debates of things like "What would be sexier, a thong or lacy boy shorts on that hot mom over there?"
