PLT TT # 2!
It's real nice to see Crazy (Nilla Wafa) happy after finishing a TT! As he should be... He threw down a nasty time which had him beat his worthy compatriot Fowler who's beaten Crazy at all the flat TT's till today. From the way he tore us up on the Thursday Fat Frogs ride, I knew his dedicated hard work was paying dividends.

Danbo had a good time out there today without proper preperation due to neck issues. I'm predicting an even faster time at PLT # 3! Is he naked?

And then theres me... I had to first find my TT rig, then take it down from the attic and get er ready. With my hip just getting better, I wasn't risking TT rides because that position is not conducive to the healing process. I didn't expect much, but pretty much landed right where I thought I would so it's all good. The post race gathering was saweeet! To kickoff shark week, I brought a couple of land shark beers to enjoy! Marco and I found these gems while partying down in Florida recently. I told the waitress that the beer sounded kinda weak. Her response was "well we can make it a loaded shark"! I said "bring it"! 1 Land Shark + 1 shot of Bacardi = a not weak beer with a bite! WooT

The Team did well and I am once again proud of them and all my friends who also posted great times!
I didn't have my camera, but BJ did, so the photos are kindly shared from her (thanx).

A Lil Update
Well it's been 3 weeks since I wrecked and I'm still messed up in the hip! My hematoma has finally subsided about 50% and a lot of the blood has found it's way to my inner thigh, hamstring, and along my I.T band. It's so nasty to be bruised up and down your leg, and you didn't even hit your leg? On the bright side, I'm not walking with a limp or much pain! I'm able to spin and if it doesn't thunderstorm after work like it has every day this week, I plan to do a group ride Thur night out at the Fat Frogs area! I was gonna give er a go Tues night but mother nature said na na! Oh yea, I raced Sunday at the tour de peake in the masters 30/40 cat. I didn't do anything but hold on, but it sure was fun being there. It's painful to watch races that you should be in... I could tell that I hadn't raced in a while by my HR going thru the roof. Ah well, it was to be expected. I knew I had nothing above holding on, so I got out of everybody's way for the sprint. Good racing to all in there! I will be doing the masters state road race this saturday. We'll see how that goes...
I want to thank the promoters of the Tour de Weekend for putting on the kids races both days! The kids races were heavily attended both days and the Judster had a stellar first two races on the road circuit on her new Specialized HotRock! We are so proud of her. They so badly want to ride, or race on the very same courses that mommy or daddy race on! Shoot, she raced more than I did last weekend.
This is a pic from Sundays race. I told her to grab Racin Gracens wheel for a leadout, but thats like telling someone not in the know to grab JD's wheel before a sprint ;-)

Both days she just chilled right behind the madness of the sprint. Smart move to get her feet wet. She'll be mixing it up in no time!

A Manimal sighting!

She wanted me to make her a custom jersey and this is what I came up with...

Mi Familia!

could it be???
As I sit here trying to figure out what to do with this unexpected or wanted downtime, I ponder if I can have anything to finish up the road season. This weekend is huge for me as far as 30+ goes but hey, sometimes things don't go as planned...
Today the doc says I have a big ol juicy hematoma on the hip. He says to apply heat, and to rest for three weeks. I tried to keep a straight face, but broke out in laughter. I said I'll give you thru the weekend, and we'll see where we're at! I hate just sitting around doing nothing. Theres not even any therapy to do for it.
So it has me thinking of the looming cross season. That's right, it's summertime and I'm thinking about Fall, and Winter.
I've got to get a bike and parts in order. That's the fun part! (and Mr. Evans better buy my old bike)
The fam brought me back some Chinese food for dinner which I love! Dammit, I must watch my diet without exercising...
Does my fortune cookie tell me that I'm going to CX WORLDS? I think it does, I'm excited!

Congrats to Mike May and Fam! They just had a baby!!! GamJams Nice pictures...
Kevin Dillard done did it again! This time it's from the go fast turn left race held at Southside Speedway Richmond! Thanx for the cover shot! Oh, and a disclaimer-----* my hands are raised across the finish line for two reasons of note 1) I raced unscathed one day after a horrible wreck, 2) I saw KD with the camera (Nikon) WHAT!

Good to see you out there!
