Taking one below the belt

I can only imagine that's what it must be like to loose a woman and have her take the dog too. I was feeling J's pain already, but to have another guy come "seamlessly" swooping in and pick up your dog as well, that's just below the belt. I don't care if my wife sleeps with half the town; just let me take the dog. True to his fashion, he's pushing through the desire to 'DNF' and simultaneously sharing the experience, so that we might learn from his struggles. Chin up bro. While we're talking about everyone sites but mine, how about Wells' and everyone's poison oak. What's the deal with the course designers at the Sea Slaughter? How many more years are we going to have to go home covered in that stuff? $45 per entry should cover the cost of some hedge clippers, no? Then again, my skin already looks like that, but let's not go there. Looks like perfect conditions for Farmington on Sunday! Root 66 is back and taking names. The turn out is going to be huge for this one. Last time the sun shined for this back in 05' it was huge, and this year is only going to be better. Winding Trails is one of my favorite race courses in New England, if not nationally. It's the one race a year when you put on the ridged fork and run a 1x9 with a double dos (44 tooth). I ran the cross bike there last fall (pun intended, unfortunately) and it was flying! Should be a good day...

Looking forward to a race report!
Ya,there were thousands of people at Sea Otter and many of them did more than one race. Short Track and Cross-country, Super D, the time trial... plus all the gravity racing, road, bmx, etc. $45x several THOUSAND!
That should be more than enough to cover gardening fees.
And some pizza and sodas... you know, for the meeting?
Where they decide WHAT TIME THE RACE STARTS AT!
...sorry. Touched a nerve.
