Weekend Happenings

Well my first cyclocross race of the season is here. Its this Sunday at 2pm I'm already liking the start times for Cat 3/4. Its also about 2 miles from DC which is another excellent plus. Have I been training for cross....well no. Just commuting and running into car doors



That's the result of an after work Giant Food run when a cabi cut me off and the drunk in the back opened the door into the bike lane. Wet roads + going to fast = locked up bicycle brake = me into door. To pissed off to call the cops or think I walked home with my bike over my shoulder. No damage to it to speak of. Live and learn.

The new frame showed up.



Digging the tapered head tube and the big ass BB30 bottom bracket. Going to be a stiff ride. Its going to be my road/gravel and cross bike. The Allez was sold 2 weeks ago. A lot of fun memories on that bike, new bike = new memories right? Got a build laid out on an Excel spreadsheet. Looking like Sram Rival everywhere except for the crank going Force there. Mavic Askium wheels and another set for road riding. Will see.

Any who racing this weekend, drinking beers afterwards heckling the pros after us. Pictures to come. I am hoping for a mid pack in front of Eric "roadie" Bloomquest but that is questionable at this point.
