9th at rmr
















i got this pic of the guys in the break heart rate 190. not bad.





9th sounds bad, well to me it does. but considering how i got it and who i was racin tonight i will take it.

pain cave right from the get go i took off like i was chasin bart the beagle or climb-um jones.
that hurt but it split the group into a 11 man break.

harward flatted, sager ?? what up sager where did you go, peiterzak, aj, ET, bad MF, jesse the body, sandy and sleevie. some other guys i cant remember. thats alot of horse power and the porcs were layin it down. 5 porcs, me and 2 goble guys. that sucks.

i have not been to rmr for 3 years and now i know why.
i got dropped on the last lap but oh well it was hard and just what i needed.

I'm trying to figure how you got 9th cause I thought you stopped. You could have gotten last and got "Most aggresive rider" in my book so way to go. It was good to see someone show some balls at RMR. Nice pics and 5 to 2 should win every time. What's up Porcs??

Last night was a total display of how to lose a race by a dominate team, Porcupine had 5 guys and they rode so stupid it was unbelievable. We were going so slow I could not understand how you guys didn’t catch us, especially since there were no Sportsbase guys. Porcupine started attacking the break right from the beginning one at a time???? They had 5 guys, and 2 of them were as strong as anybody else. At that point you take all 5 riders to the front and drive the break until its close enough to start attacking in 2s and hold a gap. Instead they screwed the pooch and handed the race to Logan.

We lost DH and Crispy with flats with 2 to go. With them in the mix it would have been 1,2,3 for the Porcs...easy. I was racing for 1st not sitting in for second on someones wheel, but hey Logan played it perfect last night.. and took us to school. Good work but it wont happen again....

now your saying they both had flats??? come on make up your mind...1,2,3???? just like last week or the week before or the week before that???? Fast bike racer doesn't mean smart bike racer...

Yes, we had 5 guys in the break and yes we made a couple of mistakes and didn't win the race. With that said, we had 5 guys in the break because we choose to race each race. We don't sit our asses in the group and hope for a sprint. Dave flatted, Chris stopped to offer up a wheel - that's what a team does. I think it's great that Sly makes the move, yet hasn't raced all year. Kudos to Sly - he knows how to race! As for the "anonymous" blogger who has called our team stupid - good for you. Our team has dominated the crit series, won 21 crit series A races this season. Not bad for a bunch of stupid racers. If that's stupid, I like being part of a stupid team. Best of luck to "anonymous" for the rest of your season. Hope you learn to ride stupid too.

....forgot to metion Sandy. His attack was perfectly timed and he was one of a few that could make it stick. Nice job Sandy. You must be stupid too.

whos counting?? Whos talking about the season? Let's talk about blowing it the last 4 weeks???

What about when one of your riders tactics is to sit up in the sprint almost causing me to crash so the rest of us lose contact with the front???? Well thats just plane crap, but hey you guys have won so many races this year its a wonder your not all pro's keep up the good work yours truly Anonymous

ps: you keep replying cause I got plenty of more examples that you pros could use a pointer on....

Simple deduction tells me Anonymous can only be one of 3 people. The lack of class tells me who it is. With a team riding so poorly why didn't You win?? Sprint with your head up and You'll be less likly to crash. Or better yet try winning from the front. I've never read a blog before and now I know why. WHAT A DICK!!

We all know there is 101 ways to loose a race, or maybe 102. You have to be willing to loose to win.

Great job Chris, You still have it!

Race cross! And get my ass handed to me each week by Crispie, Art and Bart, no way! I'm going to spend the winter eating Cheetos and reading up on the latest doping methods. Anything to stay stupid.
"Anonymous", if you're still blogging, let me know how to get a hold of you and I can recommend a good anger management counselor. I'd hate to see you continue to go home and kick the dog over loosing bike races. It's supposed to be fun.

I think everyone should stick to Time Trials.
You can still whine about cross...i seem to remember Bart complaining about the rough house East Coast Crossers. BTW Dave Z placed 2nd at the real worlds not the Weekly Worlds for delusional egotistical wanna be "pros".

Yeah, see now this is what we need around here. Good old fashion smack talk. But, don't be anonymous. Just say it to their face, or put your name. It's all good, clean fun.
