monday morning ramblings

after the sunday biking festivities i went to the movies. met up for a minute with clintster & claw. got a TMAC wrist band.

he needs a blog or something to document the treatment hes doing right now. i talked to him on the phone last week and hes a tough bird. if you already didnt know. you can judge a guys character like that by how they perform on a bike. he can take pain like no one else. i wouldnt want to even try it. when the goin gets tough for me i just drop out.

so the option here for tmac is deal with the pain or die.

thats as simple as it gets.

then last week at soho i talked to fatty for a minute, his wife has been doing some cancer treatment for a few years and he was telling me about that. seems like everyone knows someone with it. i could go on and on. atrain etc. but this is supposed to be a short post and have a lot to say about it.

getting it, curing it etc. but i will get off the box and leave it at that.

i got a bunch of people to post this week. the weekend left me tired and lazy. thats no excuse but thats the life of sly. ride then sleep.

some tell me i have the gravy train life. its good but the grass is always greener on the other side. everyone has a good life i think they just need to see what they have instead of being envious of the other guy. even the hobos at pioneer park. i just like to make fun of everyone. even myself.

the best races of yesterday were mike hanseen in the 35 plus taking off sly style and getting in a break for 45 mins. then hageman bridged and beat him by 5 sec.

then in the 3's i told chris peterson and ryan harrison to take off and string it out. they did and for a few laps it was cool to see some pain and real racing. those 2 kids are 18 and rip the trail. mitchels little brother aka thin and thinner. if you dont know them its the tall skinny kids in the devo jerseys.

anyway, tomorrow night is solitude #1 so come rip the trail. i will try it and see how i feel. the dh is worth the climb.
