Weirdness.

The RIM took me a really long time to recover from. Compared to the race I did last weekend it was easy, but I think I made a couple big errors in racing and recovery that really screwed up my world. I got on my bike yesterday after taking 4 full days off the bike and was amazed at how I felt. Turning the pedals was weird for about a block and then I started feeling the Eye of the Tiger kicking in. I wanted to dominate people in Forest Park and was really wanting to go hard...Everything was good. So I left it all in the tank.

After work I did some more riding and it was all systems go again. Then I ran into professor MTBR in the park and rode with him and his new Niterider MiniNEWt- this is a great light for Forest Park night racing folks! And it also saved a lot more space on your bars then the equivalent 3 $19.99 Serfas lights you would have to use. So DG, the next time you see some fancy pants on a Schwinn Varsity up ahead attack him on the downhill and hope that there is no one flossing the trail in fruit boots more than 30 feet ahead!

Conclusion- 1) I am glad I took the cash last weekend instead of the Mini NEWT 2) I can go faster using my Jedi Skills that LED lights.

your pedal stroke is so sloppy these days I'd need at least three HIDs to keep track of your upper body.

and what the heck does "flossing the trail in fruit boots" or whatever nonsense you offered mean?

my wattage cottage wasn't built on a smooth pedal stroke. i stroke it HARD.

don't play dumb about the fruit boot thing... i've seen you riding in the FP behind dudes in tight shorts, cut off tank tops, wagging their little tails while you follow them on your bike drooling on the top tube...
