Well, at this point I'm more poser than racer. Doing maybe 2 to 3 events a year, of which only maybe 1 is a USAC race versus gravel or duathlon isn't exactly a stellar calendar.

I'm just weird I guess. I really enjoy trying to get faster on the fitness side of things. It's fun for me to be able to blast around how I can. Even if there isn't a "W" or a "KOM" in it, it's neat to be able to chew up miles and hills and stuff at a good clip.

It didn't so much drive me nuts when I started out seeing people pass you or see your name way down on the Strava boards. I just didn't like going so slow.

I came from racing turbo Volkswagens in the 1/8th and 1/4, and ehhmmm other places. Gave that up to be more responsible. So, tweaking the power and going faster is just part of the hobby to me on the bike.

But.......no methanol injection for cycling.
Dope the f up bro
