Today I drove to Skyline Drive for the first time and did climbing repeats to the visitors center. I wanted to do that 60 mile loop, but didn't have much riding time cause I broke my derailleur hanger and had to track one down and replace it before I left. I love that climb, it reminds me of California - but not as steep. I called some of my teammates before to see if they wanted to come, and here are their excuses:
Dave Fuentes - Had to do something to represent his job (meaning = scared to ride w/ the Chuck)
Todd Hipp - Had to travel for work (he gets scared when ever Dave is scared)
Russ Langley - Had to work, but wanted to come (scared but to proud to show it by pretending to have a job)
Keck Baker - I think he just peed himself and hung up. (very scared)
Sean Berry - School (yeah whatever, isn't it Christmas break? meaning = scared)
Brian Butts - Didn't answer the phone (pretending to be racing in China by passing off pictures of his twin brother who is really there to be him).
Evan Fader - Fearing the call, quit the team and joined Richmond Pro. (Need I say more?)
At this point I gave up, and just went at it alone. Come on guys, were all buds and I'll wait for you at the tops of the climbs!
Pansies! All of em.
ReplyDeleteGive me a call. I have a yearly pass.
I could care less if you drop me.
That is funny.
ReplyDeleteI did skyline earlier this year Like in february and one of your boys had a mini-van pacing them up the hill.(I know out here they think it is a mountain)
Chuck how did you get the day off? I know you are a part of the old guard. You are not one of the guys who guards the tomb are you?
John, you know I'm going to take you up on that so get ready.
ReplyDeleteKyle, I am supposed to be one of those guys who rides a horse - but I havn't for over a year. I have some pass days I have to use before the Army forgets thay gave them to me.

ReplyDeleteThe hardest miles r done out of shape and in layers of restrictive cloth...the retention of glory and desire for more is the sole motivator ...Soo is it the same if u put a few phone books under front wheel and " climb " indoors ?
ReplyDeletewhat is there 2 fear ...you r good but without the numbers you would certainly be a diminished threat,.. so there ..a real ..non brown nosin comment..I like it. CS
