The highlight of this weekend was biking home from a house warming party with a full quiche duct taped to my water bottle cage and top tube. It came home in perfect condition. I couldn't bring the salad home, though.

Oh, I raced, too. But it doesn't count, because I couldn't finish. Great course, free food afterwards, amazing day for a race. I'll be there next year. Too bad I haven't figured out this whole circular motion thing with your feet to propel you forwards on these strange steel machines. Maybe it takes practice. Although I'd say the bigger problem was falling on my face every chance I got. Apparently you have to pick up your feet higher than the barrier to jump over it.



Photo stolen from Josh, without permission. I'd say it sums up how my race went on Saturday.

i stole the photo from the link that the promoter sent out to the pre-reg list. its in the comments on my blog. it has a ton more, including a 3 or 4 shot sequence of you eating it.

The link didn't work for me. Although I do love pictures of me crashing. Or anyone crashing, for that matter. I prefer not to be the one doing the crashing.

Very nice dive! I took a wicked dive recently running in the woods after it got dark....older and wiser do not necessarily go together...
