I hope everyone minded there P's and Q's last night at the Fairgrounds crit by either pissing in their cars or in the bathroom and picking up after yourself. But of course if your mom was there you were allowed to make the biggest mess since she will pick up after you.
Hare core rider of the night goes to Ezra for racing a single speed. He even won a prime by out sprinting an Flanders rider!
Sidebar on Ezra: a few years ago there was a cx single-speed CRY. Ezra would show up and put the screws to us every week. He does it in a Dale Sedgwick kind of way were he doesn't look like he's riding hard but after about three minutes of hanging on his wheel you say to yourself: "f*ck'n hell, this sumbitch is hammering."
Hats off to Ezra for an awesome ride.
Last week Dale told me that I was going to win the Fairgrounds crit. I laughed at him and said that's not possible. I hate when Dale is right. In the closing laps we took over at the front. Dale, Jens, and Pat kept things in order while Paul and I sat back and waited. Paul is riding really well and has quite a bunch kick now. So he was there as an added insurance policy for us should I not have been able to fulfill my duties as the protected rider. In the end it worked out well when I turned around at the line and he was still on my wheel finishing second. Right on.
Things I liked about the Fairgrounds Crit:
- It actually happened.
- Pre-reg is slick.
- The course.
- Agressive racing.
- Great atmosphere.
Things I did not like about the Fairgrounds Crit:
- Sketchy cat 3's.
- Sketchy cat 2's that should still be cat 3's (note to self, bring training bike next week)
Things Pat liked about the Fairgrounds crit:
- The tall girl at registration. (oh no I did'int just out him! Don't worry, he's easy to beat up)
Thought about doing B.Dog tonight. Don't think I will, need to get stuff done around the house.
