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.

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...

Good thing I'm racing 35+

Back Again

Running up hill on sand is tough, a lot of effort with little gains. That is what this past year has felt like. While I feel I have my ADHD somewhat under control, I still struggle with depression, impulsiveness, and emotional fluctuations. I also stopped therapy. I thought for a while that I was okay and could handle life but only to find that I still need help. I’ll be meeting with a new therapist later this week and am hopeful for a fresh perspective and is someone who will hold me accountable. I feel like my last therapist was the start I needed. I was lost in how and where and what to work on. I feel I was able to get things in motion and found some direction. I confused those first few steps with being well on my way to recovery. I’m bummed that it took me a year to gain that perspective because if I stuck with it I would actually further along in my recovery. I don’t resent or feel guilt for falling back into old routines. I would only feel guilty if I didn’t tr...
