Velo Lex: March 2009

On the bright side, I did win the sprint into Bonkville

Went down and did the Dogwood on Sunday. High winds and a high pace. Felt great for about 46 miles. Unfortunately Dogwood is about 57 miles with Jim's recon up the second lap climb.

Apparently Annie has a new job with Amgen. Skip has been getting into the samples.

Like an obvious foreshadowing scene in a bad movie, as Jim took off on the recon climb, I turned to Skip and ominously said, "you know, I don't think I had enough to eat this morning" That played an important part in the final act of our little drama.

There is a new bar in town. Everyone does indeed know my name here.

Here is one I forgot

Eki. One of the all time hard asses.

Herd of deer at Sac last night. Objects closer than they appear.

Any reports of a brown wolf at Sac are attributable to this guy and the K lady.

This is horseshit!

I guess completely ruining Busieck is not enough for our equine riding friends. Now they are after Sac. I saw a group of 5 or 6 Sunday and a little fresh "evidence" this morning.

What am I missing here? The sign at Sac clearly says no horses.
