Change of Plans

At 8:00 tonight, I was fighting off this fucking cold, feeling a little guilty about blowing off cross practice tonight, but I figured, be smart, get through this cold, hoping I don’t get sicker.

And then the phone rang. It was Wes. He wanted to plant a seed with me. He said, “any thoughts to doing the relay this weekend?” To which I responded, “Well Fort James had mentioned it to me, but I was gonna race Saturday…” Diane was sitting next to me on the couch, and started to make funny faces. She knew I couldn’t resist the lure of a team relay race, and the fact that it’s a cross race makes it even worse. That bastard Wes, I bet he and his fortmate FortJames were on some secret Fortlistserver putting together a master plan for our super duper team. Okay maybe not.

You know I can resist one of my homies trying to get me to race a relay race, but damn man, how can a man resist 2 of his homies? It can’t be done I tell you! It can’t! Damn they knew me too well; I can never resist a relay team race. It’s like coke or meth or cold medicine or airborne that I just can’t stop taking.

So yeah, fatmarc who lives in Maryland is out of the 35+ Pa State States Race, and into the Relay race. Hell yeah! This ought to be really good. Hey Kuhn dog any rules about tiger suits, or clown make up? I am so totally in. Thanks Fellas…

And so, our lot was cast, in less than 40 minutes my weekend’s plans changed, and I look forward to the Pa State Championship of the World, of relay cyclocross racing. I can’t wait.

For the record, our team is:

Wes the Conqueror
Fort James
Fatmarc
One and only Email Dominator Adam S (only he doesn’t know it yet)

And Adam, BTW Wes says you have to come up with a snazzy name.

I’m totally stoked this is gonna be fun.

Respect
