hey all.
kind of a not exciting day going on. 5'ish hour ride in ohio today on the bike paths. crazy busy on them lately in certain sections so i try and stay away from those areas. was ridding on them about a month ago and came upon this couple probably in the mid 50's or so. the guy was in the middle of the trail, the woman he was with was on the right. they were riding soooooooooooo slow and i could tell by the way she was riding that she was having a really bad day. she was sweating like a maniac and she kept readjusting herself in the saddle. ouchy.
i go to pass them but didn't say anything to them as i was going to blow right by them on the right. as soon as i went to do this (and i was going pretty slow at the time) the guy cut over into me and i had to hit my brakes and cut inbetween them. the lady literally screamed at the top of her drama queen lungs, and then started cussing about me not telling them that i wasn't behind them.
the next thing i know, her and her wimpy 120 pound husband are dropping f bombs on me. by the time i looked over at them to see their faces, they had already unleashed 4 f bombs - and when i did see her face she looked totally crazed. eyes about to pop out of her head, her face completely red and covered in a layer of sweat. total nut case.
so, needless to say, i try to stay away from that general area. too many fruit cakes around.
next weekend is my speedgoat trip to tune up the bikes for georgia, pick up the new king wheels, go for a ride and some more mexican food, and then to have a pow wow about next year. chris, beth and the guys (and now gal) over at the shop are working on some stuff - should be cool.
gotta run. ebay stuff to work on tonight and maybe even an order for some cross stuff. getting pumped for the cross season to start. looks to be about 7 races or so in the clevaland area. goal this year is to get another win against paul martin, local cat 1 and former-pro for navigators/go-mart. had one win against him last year, but he has really good form this year and is supposidly he is stronger then ever. really good guy - in fact, i think he was voted "nicest rider" one year by cylcing news.
anyhoo....
really gotta go.
sologoat out
