This week’s Tough Chick award goes to my wife, Amy, for stacking 3 cords of wood by herself.
Not only was the feat itself amazing, but her husband wins “Biggest Pussy” award for not wanting to blow his back out before a stupid bike race, in which he sucked ass anyways.
Well, yesterday was the first cross race of the season for me and most of my homies. It was the super technical Eco-cross out on the Cape. I would say all around I had a pretty terrible time. Chuck and I suffered at the back of the elite race for the full hour, and got lapped by a decent percentage of the field. It was one of those races where you just hope they pull you early so as to get it over with. By the end, I was running numbers through my head, trying to figure out how much $$$ I could make if I sold all my cross gear on eBay.
The downpours held off until everyone had crossed the finish line. At least I have that to be glad about.
Anyway, hats off to Matt for placing 7th, in the money, and right behind the stars-and-striped Paul Curley. And Pat M, who was able to finish his first CX race ever in the C’s, without any major incidents.
Seriously, if next weekend’s USGP doesn’t go markedly better, I’m pulling the plug on the whole stupid thing.
