We are decided


Ok, I don't know how long this new motivation will last, but I realized today that if I get back down to cruiserweight, and get a few thousand miles in, I could race in the 45+ category next year. Not that that would be any easier or anything (especially since I'll be 45), but I'd like to give it a whirl.

Um, sorry to remind you, but one other guy just hit his 45 candle-on-the-cake year....Mark Brackenbury. And he's strong as ever. And Dave Rogers is also Spence like in his strength.

I'm not saying you shouldn't race. I'm saying you should put these guys to shame, while flying by with hairy legs and a wool jersey. True Hinsley style.

Yeah - I know. And Shim is like 50 or something. So it doesn't make things any easier. But If I can delude myself for a year or so, I'll get the benefit of being in good shape. So shut the hell up - naysayer.

Munson: Nay.

I'm 45, I own the category, you best just head out to your dad's favorite burger joint and continue to let your wife tell you what to do.

Uh oh. Somebody's shaking. How bad is that going to suck when some fat, hen-pecked, hairy legged Fred gives you a run in "your" category? I'm not saying I'll ever beat you (I will, though) because I'm still mad about the Lady's seat thing. Oh Wait, that was Munson. I have a story coming up about Shim, Munson, A lady's seat and why Munson will return to racing stronger than ever next year. But it will have to wait because I'm tired after my 30 miles at around 12 MPH today. Whew.

I stand by my original position, that was a ladies seat.
