Ah yes, my favorite trail in CdA. Thanks to Cappy for the Northern Idaho update and the great bike trail in Coeur d'Alene! The run route hit that trail for about 4 miles total over the course of the marathon, but I too spent some quality time on that trail in the days leading up to last years race.
So as CX season approaches, I am getting more and more excited about the bike. CX seems to be the most fan friendly form of racing out there. With the boy equally getting excited about his bike, I am hopeful that this year will be a more family friendly affair. However, I still don't think cycling in the US has caught up to our Euro counterparts...when this image is common place at the Tour of Cal we will have made the bridge up!
Mosquito at 5:45...Exit 54?Until we Ride,

If I remember correctly B's introduction to FT3 was a bit punchy. The introduction of NoHandle and B was...well they were both feeling antsy!
ReplyDelete3.
ReplyDeleteWho would have guessed B's "masculine enhancer" home-brew also swelled brake pads. No wonder he has been so confident lately.
9er
ReplyDeleteFour?
ReplyDeleteIf any of you drops a chain tonight, I will gladly wait for you and attack later (as in Dec.). However, more likely you will be waiting for me b/c I dropped my fitness.
Please note for those of you who don't consider today a work day or have found time to follow the tour today, today's stage is off limits. I know what Andy is going to do but have not seen confirmation yet.
BTW: I'll be meeting at Mosquito too. See you at that location at 5:45.
ReplyDeleteFIVE!
ReplyDeletePer thread topic prevention, I made a trip to the Spoke for a new tire, after my mountain lion escape sprint. I installed the Armadillo HD tire and Swiss Stop pads, of which B must have 'pre-preppred' since they are dragging upon installation; not so much though that NoHandle will have my wheel. I double checked everything since 'I choose SRAM' much like our hero Andy.
Also, ran into Denise and Husband of Knott Hole at the Spoke, she was wondering where we've been and has T-shirts ready for pick up.
I love the B is the vigilant Blog watcher today. Keeping tabs and touching base on all topics...it is only a short step to shaking hands and kissing babies...I back B for and El Dorado County Sup seat!
ReplyDeleteDon't forget your project at Blair/Brockliss bridge site.
ReplyDeleteIs a new handle for B in order? Will we have both a C-Man and an S-Man? I am still conducting DTInvestigations, although I hope to be present.
ReplyDeleteI just remembered I have to clean and press the FT3 Kit.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of pads - B, have you had to deploy the brow soaker yet this year? Also, after my kitty cat encounter I don't recommend the raw bacon helmet accessory.
I think having a Cap'n, a Coucilman, and a Supervisor-man?, might make FT3 a little heavy on the authority figures.
ReplyDeleteHow bout BOSB.
ReplyDeleteI second the motion for B's new Handle "BOSB" as moved by NoHandle.
ReplyDeleteAll in favor signify by saying "Aye"
NoCar, fear not, you might just earn a handle with authority yet. Heck, do something honorable and you could even be knighted. Me on the other hand, I have almost had stripes pulled, you could go that route too you know...
ReplyDeleteAye. BOSB it is. Welcome to the political elite. Unfortunately, it's an election year and we might have to take PAC money to survive...see y'all next Tuesday.
