I think I'm going to go out on my bike soon and see what max sprint I can put out after not having ridden in half a year.

Rob, I meant TMonk wants to be a SPHR, since he has the same goals as you

When I saw SPHR, my brain thought sphincter. Then I looked it up and saw it is a HR certification...

130 cat5's in one crit********** Count me out.......
BTW I have the same goals as you do in your sig, but I am a cat4. What is your age/height if you don't mind me asking???? I'm 23, 145lbs and 5'9.5". With the current state of affairs, I would rather have a girlfriend than a spooky skeletor, but not by much.

Very nice shot. Their Facebook page also has a bunch of good photos from the stage. Did you drop Floyd? He looks kind of chunky in his photo.

It's been really crappy out here lately. I won't get a chance to try it for atleast the next 3 weeks because of the weather/spring break/work/travel for jobs.
I'm guessing that my 5 sec is still going to be higher than umd's peak.
Maybe I'll try it on the trainer if the stupid kid that broke my trainer can get the parts to fix it.

He was at Callville. He has a race report in the race report thread.
Rob, sorry I missed your crit, I had to go charge my camera battery and get ready for my race. I saw from the results that you finished the crit in the pack, right next to one of the other guys on my boat.

umd, you are quite possible the most color matched rider/bike I've ever seen. Like you popped out of the Specialized factory already on top of the bike.

Hehe, that was by design. I have to say I really like our new reversed-color black kits, we just got them in time for this weekend. It was very nice wearing a black kit in the road race when it was raining on us. I hate getting white kits all dirty in the rain.
