episode 136: busted.

no not wearing women's underwear, everyone knows, that the key to promoting a successful race, is wearing the right thong.

Mayhew, also known in these parts as the little hairy angry midget who is trying to help fatmarc turn down the suck knob, had me doing a work out that looked something like this:

So I was pretty fried, but wanted to ride some more after work. This year I bought a geared mountain bike. I hate the fucking thing. It's not the gears, it's the frame geometry. I have no idea how to make that sonofabitch turn. Unlike my precious Spot Brand 29ers, that flow and roll, and corner, and... well, my geared bike, the baby bike, just brings me frustration. Needless to say, that frame, with all of 4 rides on it, will be going for sale soon. Buy it on e-bay.

As my legs felt like crap, and I really wanted ride slow, I figured I could sneak out to Fairhill. And I did, it was a nice ride, with my MP3 player keeping me company, I wandered my way around the trail system hitting crack head bob, and south park.

Up the final stretch on my ride home, I joined into the back of a HUGE Delaware trail spinners finishing up their ride. I didn't want to disrupt so I just sat in the back. The group was regrouping and then someone noticed me. They yelled, "what are you doing here ? " I replied, "spinning out the legs..." There was some very nice pleasantries about the race last weekend, and then some looked at my bike, and their mouths dropped open, "you- you are riding gears!?"

I was so busted. I responded, "yup, just spinning.." There were smiles on every one's faces, but I knew what they were thinking. As I rode through the crowded parking lot I saw some familiar faces, (ben and gavigan) and they too quickly pointed out that I was in fact on a geared bike.

Maybe I'll go Goghen and check into rehab today.

Hills from hell tonight. Should be pretty interesting. My legs feel like ass.

Tom bought the pups some matching pink doggie T-s. Riley didn't love his, but Layla, she loves to wear clothes, and the pink, she loves it.

Tom is such a good man.


respect.
