Things are back to normal in my skull so here are a few other moments and thoughts that I had while at the
24 Hours of 9 Mile.
I met Mike Howard while on course. He is a reader of many blogs and a great racer to boot finishing 4th overall in the Men's 24 Hour Solo Freak Category. We had a short introduction/conversation and then he motored away. Nice to meet you Mike!
I saw
Paddy briefly but never had a chance to really stop and talk. He and his Canadian counterparts tore it up with him finishing 2nd in the 24 Hour Solo Singlespeed class with Dallas Sigurdur in 4th. Paddy's wife Naomi won the 24 Hour Solo Freak Women's category by three laps. Congrats to all of you on a great performance, way to represent The Great White North.
I also saw local rider Rob "Deerslayer" Houlihan while going through the transition area. He blew by me like I was stopped just a few minutes after that. He's fast...must be the oversized wheels.
Should be getting my paws on these soon too. They should come in pretty "handy" for the
24 Hours of Afton in August.
I was able to get the low down on the SRAM Force gruppo that will grace this beautiful bike here. Now that I understand how it all functions, I am super excited to give it a try.
Ever seen a free spirited cow?
I work with this one guy who goes by the name Guitar Ted although his real name is Mark. Imagine my confusion when I saw this.
They even have a short truck instead of a short bus.
Here is a picture of my leg. I apologize if it grosses anyone out.
Have a most enjoyable day.
