USGP weekend 1

i guess it went pretty good. Ryan winnign and all. i just wish I would have outsprinted the shark on sunday. that is pretty hard to do though, as he is like the US crit champ or something... anyways, the legs are starting to come around, and when they do, number one fan TJ is going to have his work cut out for him. Headed to a vello bella one this weekend, then out to granouge for some god clean fun. i like my new wheels. they go fast!

and they are made out of plastic

nasty

yeah - Marky Mark turned around and went down to do the Jamestown road race the next day and cleaned up in the 1/2/3 race...

no shame man no shame...

was hopin to catcha and say hey at G-ster but i only managed a hey to your "twin"

i had to suffice with yelling in that orange coverall suit...

dudes - you guys rocked...

that and do ya really run 175s?

Barry Wicks said...

heck yes! long cranks are only to make up for what people lack in other departments

gewilli said...

but they are sooooo short...

compared to the 180s... figured ya might take full advantage of the freakness eh? not that ya are slow as it is, but them 180s is the tall guys secret...

ya got reasons not to run em? just curious (i've been runnin 180s for, ah hell that long?, 15 or more years now) and used to be 6'6" when i was yall's age (getting old now)

i have never tried them, but dont want to go through the trouble of switching up all my bikes for nothing. it is all mental anyways, just like those goofy non round chainrings. my legs like 175's and are used to pedalig them

gewilli said...

sho nuff... hell ya is damn fast as it is...

who'm'i to suggest ya switch- if it works for you... it works...

just think tho - with the 180s maybe Mark doesn't pimp ya at the line next time ;)

I finally picked up the print version of USGP VNews - nice write up there... um... Circus Clown

Barry, as much as I miss seeing your face up here in the Crusade series, it's nice to have you racin' somewhere else this season... :)

Good luck this fall and I look forward to seeing the steam rise when your bread finally is baked. I am certain it will be spectacular, as you seem to have the recipie down pat.

Keep it rolling.
