"I know the team. Seen them over the years at races. Not real hard to know the top racers in Region even for a mongrel like you"
Stay classy.

I wasn't referring to the grammar.
Agreed, but I don't think Cat 6 commuters are "top racers."

I think Tripple Lights is at least a cat 2 or 3 level of fitness, I doubt he knows how to hold a wheel though. He's a heavy hitter, there are some really strong cat 6 racers around here

Larry, from I understand, you've never raced; is that correct? If so, perhaps you should refrain from assessing other riders' skills in this manner. (That's code for "You don't know what you're talking about.")

I've done a couple practice crits but the fields were sketchy, I don't think ill race this season. Id rather roll with the experienced riders than grind through cat 4/5 (paying money too boo), especially because people are really fit even in cat 5. Im not strong enough to win

But sure, it's the drivers who are clueless.

Larry reminds me of why I like riding by myself so much.

I don't think so. I don't generally talk to other riders. I'd have been on the Litespeed, wearing all black kit.
With lights. And a saddle bag. So, obviously, a slow rider.....

Hey, at least I'm not running it with a steerer extension AND a riser stem!
