So very, very glad i shaved my legs. Drive home to pick up ma in the morning, and headed to burlington to watch snake alley crit. got there in time to see jeff warming up. scored nice seats in the alley. next year.i'm bringing a bell to ring. seeing the crit made me excited for next year.it's on. Length: 3/4 of a mile. Turns: 8, 6 right handed turns, 2 left. Bent the rear derailuer hanger all kinds of bad. but looks fixable. Ripped some bar tape on the right handlebar drop. THANK GOODNESS I SHAVED MY LEGS.

This past weekend was one of the bike. you know, like the chinese have the year of the rat and stuff, this was the weekend of the bike. or more appropriately, another weekend of the bike. Sunday: woke up. ate breakfast. went out for another pre-ride with dennis of the rigid, internally geared karate monkey. Even i am starting to think my legs are getting kinda scary. but i rode creek crossing number 2 both times! Posted by the helping friendly book @ 6:31 PM. Links to this post. 6 sugar bottom scramble!

A desperately worn old chainring. Old biopace chainrings make good spacers. Junk bin salvaged desperately worn old 36t chainring. Sawed off bolt mounts from said old biopace chainring =. One GHETTO single speed. Evidence of an afternoon well spent. A new paint job is probably in its near future. i'm thinking pink with blue lugs. yeah, that'll be hot. any suggestions, thoughts, comments? Posted by the helping friendly book @ 7:18 AM.

Gears are for sissies. Ragbrai, you fickle broad you, you are beating the pants off me. Me: 82 5 0 15 22 = 124. Ragbrai: 65.5 84.4 62 83.7 78.3 = 373.9. That zero in the middle of my days bothers me. can't remember the last time i pulled a zero day, excluding days off due to injuries (i'm a nancy). zero days suck. Not a very good post. i know. Posted by the helping friendly book @ 7:34 PM. Links to this post. So, me = stupid. Me: 82 5 0 15 = 102. Ragbrai: 65.5 84.4 62 83.7 = 295.6. Links to this post.

The birth of something big (or at least funny). Friday night fixie ride! Good one. cast: mitch, michael, fritz, me. Matt came down from cr to pick up his gear before his colorado trip, and to introduce his roomates to a creepy concoction called jagnog. that stuff is thick! The happiest result of thursday evening was once at martini's; john, matt, and i finally drank enough, and got loopy enough to decide upon a name for our team. DQYDJ, yo! Expect big things and much hilarity to ensue. Links to this post.

Yesterday, john, yerke, steve, jeff and i rode out to sugar, did the better part of a lap, and rode back in. we were all on our mtn bikes, jeff on his cross. i like riding out to sugar. it beats driving out any day. Last monday, dave and i rode sugar in the evening. the swine dropped me a couple of times. it's only a matter or time and dave is going to be giving us all a run for out money on the dirt too.

It was tough. and a long, tedious process, but i finally managed to get the boatload, in nearly its entirety, of pictures we took this past weekend up for all to see. And yes, it is in backwards order. what can i say, turns out i'm not a web genius, just a web nerd. Posted by the helping friendly book @ 7:28 PM. Links to this post. Disclaimer: this one is bound to be quite long. and for that, i apologize in advance. The trip back was similar to the trip there. silly. Links to this post. Q says: "brian's ...
