40 days and 40 nights

Giro D'kota Tek #1:
Got into a 6-rider break and was able to hold on to win the final kick and up the streak to eight. Dig that.

In the "why would you ever do this" category: P-cakes, T, E-rock, and I were out for a warmup ride when I noticed one of these is not like the other. P-cakes decided that he would pin his number on the left side of his jersey. Now, it was one of the best pin jobs I've ever seen, I was quite impressed. But for this night of roundy rounds proper placement of the number was on the right side of the jersey. As we were riding along, P-cakes finds it necessary to proceed to take his helmet off followed by his jersey, unpin his number, then repin the damn thing on the correct side, and for a grand finally put damn jersey back on. All while riding mind you. That Pat, quite the trickster.

40 fast approaching days left.

(From the newest member of the PureJenius.net staff (who, by the way, is paid >well So I've been perusing the MCF board tonight and I still can't believe how many guys are whining about the races and race categories that promoters choose for races. I'm pretty good at whining too, so here goes: I'm a 35+ Cat 3 woman who will show up for the St. Cloud Crit and have to toe the line with Cat 1/2 guys - I don't give a shit that they're 50+, their license still says Cat 1 or 2 (and 3/4/5) and they race like Cat 1/2s. What's that you say, it's a ROY race, so we'll be scored separately? Okay cool, then I'll completely overlook the fact that the race will blow apart on about lap 1.5 and I'll spend the remainder of the race with 3 or 4 other women if I'm lucky or I'll assume the time trial position and ride around in circles by myself. Should be fun. Oh, I should shut my trap because if I think the 50+ guys are too fast and furious, I s...

Good thing I'm racing 35+

Dammit. We played so well but still lost. Here's some highlights from week 2 of our football league. we actually scored. we had a playbook (we laughed when we saw the team we played last week had a playbook. They kicked our asses) Strats is our go-to female QB. She connected on all of her passes. Two of them stick out: one perfectly thrown interception to the other team (we wear yellow shirts, she threw it to a girl wearing a white shirt), and one hail-mary to the end zone. I didn't drop any of the passes that were to me. Nobody got hurt...yet. I can almost smell a torn ACL heading our way. I'm going to hang an old tire in the back yard so Strats can hone her QB skills a little more.
