When the going gets tough, the pros quit.

NVGP stage 1.

E Rok started in the back of the field and wasn't afraid of racing his bike. He found his way to the lead group just before the moto crashed, which caused the race to be neutralized. Cole was in the group behind E, Gregg and Pat were solid in the third group.

The officials bent like pipe cleaners when the restart was protested by the "professional athletes" not wanting to continue. Truly pathetic. Road+wet=slippery. I'm sure these "pro" cyclists have raced in the rain before. Boohoo if there were crashes. There are crashes in every bike race, wet or dry. Besides, a large majority of these crashes were on the same corner, couldn't these learning impaired imbeciles figure that out? Aside from a few drops, it never rained during the men's race. What sucks now is everyone got a free pass to continue. We had two guys in striking distance of the amateur and u23 jerseys.

Thanks "pros", now go back to your hotel, get your legs rubbed, eat your f*cking jelly beans, and ask your mom if you can have at least one of your balls for the rest of the series.

My Enemies List:
- Domestic Pro Cyclists - you continually fail to impress me.

Race Categories:

(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...

Slow

My low self esteem dates back to my early childhood. I grew up in a household where I was to be seen and not heard. I was told quite often that nothing in the house was mine because I did not pay for it. I was not allowed to have an opinion or challenge the patriarch and authority. This continued through to my adult life and continued to shape how I felt about myself. I wasn't ever going to be good enough. It weighs deep with me today. I have very low self worth and self esteem. I don't feel like I belong in social situations with people who, from my own perspective, are normal. If they only knew how fragile of a person I am, it would be game over for me. It shouldn't matter to me anymore as I have proven, to myself, that I came from behind to catch up with my peer group from an educational and professional standpoint. It still weighs on me, I feel like others look at me and think that I must not be that smart because I'm only an XYZ at my job and not an ABC.  Of course...
