The Toll of the Crit

Ahhh, it's true... Cyrus is wearing the tell tale signs of a crit mishap as I'd first heard at Bow's party last night. I'm glad I don't have to think about getting a cast molded to the shape of handlebars for TransRockies next week!

Hope your 24 y/o metabolism patches your arm back together in no time!

And as for the "no offense to the hill climb pairing"... none taken! I was being honest with you before race... not sandbagging. You're basically tops in the province, and a dedicated year round athlete. I'm a good athlete for a guy who's primarily a desk jockey. Even if my 4:07 time doesn't seem too worthy of pride in contrast to what the Cat 1/2 field can dish out, from my perspective I'm pretty happy with it considering the busy weekend, not really planning to race, and just my overall physical abilities.

Ideally in a paired (or supposedly trio) race you'll end up with three guys who are within 5% of you and you all push till you blow up. You were too fast to be an ideal carrot for me, and I was waay to slow to be of any use to you.

  1. Ya, I'll heal up in no time. Should be fun. One arm rollerskiing, running and riding the trainer. Yay! My favorite thing to do in the summer.

    You and Mckee should have a blast at TR. I'm glad you didn't go down yesterday too.

    Rubber side down!
