Yeah, Zack was in my old Boy Scout troop (he's about my brother's age, a few years younger than I am). He was always a sneaky and solid sprinter when I raced with/against him. I'm sure he's stronger now... Several good kids have come out of NCVC in the last couple of years- him and Steven Black that I know of offhand.
nate and steven on lsv kelly this coming year, along w evan fader and the rest of their other roster, they might just give the harley guys some fits up here.

Has coddling tendencies.
It's Hate Monday here in the BF RB racing forum.
Or just jockeying for position before the sprint.

The lady's brother is just off my left. This was shortly after the cat 4 field lapped the cat 5 field. Talk about a cluster F. Hopefully next week when this happens he'll grab my wheel.
He did well though, finished 10th in his first race. He wasn't positive if it was the last lap, for which I actually blame ABR for not just having a 4/5 race and trying to separate the two.

There are times when this forum needs to get off its collective high horse. Take that statement, or leave it. As botto would say, I don't give a flying f_ck.

I respect anyone's right to be here.
That right is in direct proportion to my own right to ridicule them for saying stupid ****.
You pays your money and you takes your chances.

He's running a splitter and running both brakes IIRC. He's currently using a bar end shifter and the left STI lever. We have been talking a lot about rigging up Di2 with the new pods they have let hit the rumor mill but havent' put out yet.

Si. I was surprised to see him. Wilke was out there too taking snaps.
I know i suck this year when I am not in any of the good shots. No one shoots the middle to back of the pack.

A few pics from Tour de Dung #1 from Saturday - Cat 5 (odd-numbered only) rollout:
Ok, nobody is really suffering in that pic.. but how 'bout those Olympic Mountains?
A pic from the Cat 4 race, guy leading the pack on this lap took the win (Mark M on Starbucks) - he's a great guy, but I'll be racing him now! Time to step it up a bit...
Women's Cat 4 peloton:
Can't wait to get back out there this weekend..

He won the Fall Fling Omnium as a 5 last year and cat'd up to race the 4's with us as well (ABR - what do you want to race today...)
He was throwing down 4.2 or 4.4 w/kg during an indoor TT last month for second in the 4's. I got him on the team last year and then he came over with me when I started up my own team in Jan. Thus the non-descript blue jerseys in lieu of kits
In this race they started us in the 4's about 5 -10 seconds before the 5's. Said we could work together if the 5's caught us but it would be scored separately. Last year everyone sat up and raced as 1 field. This year a couple of slim_77's teammates went to the front and hammered right off the bat. Found myself out front on the first lap. We ended up lapping the 5's with a few laps left. From there it turned into a cluster as the 5's started asking us what to do and what was going on and the 4's were still racing to drop as many souls as possible. A total f'n clustered horse race.
....it was awesome. I love March.

It's my mom's birthday, her present will be a cat 4 win followed by another cat 3 puke-fest. Hopefully.
