More Cross!!!

Written on August 7, 2008. Written by The Rev.

If you are like me (and I know I am). At this time of the year I have to fight the urge to get off and run during the weekly crit series, stoplights are treated like the gun going off at Nationals, and freshly watered grass pulls me in like addict to a […]

This Could Be Fun

Written on August 6, 2008. Written by The Rev.

If you can get past the sound not being synched and the fact that the dude is shirtless for some reason, this would be a fun experiment. Death is too good for a bike thief.

I wonder if I can rig one of these to zap me next time I try to pull into a […]

It’s Coming…

Written on August 4, 2008. Written by The Rev.

With it 100 degrees in the 801 it is hard to detect, but to the commited there is a faint smell, a hint maybe of embrocation and tubular glue in the air.  That can mean only one thing.  Cross is coming!!!
The silver lining for ramming my road bike into a low parking garage is the fat […]

Long Races

Written on July 30, 2008. Written by The Rev.

Looks like Lance is lining up in Leadville this weekend. According to the Velonews article he is going for the win. Good luck with that. Beating Dave Weins is not something that anyone has been able to do at Leadville for the last few years. Back in the day he pretty much […]

Tour Awards

Written on July 28, 2008. Written by The Rev.

I am pretty stoked that Sastre was able to hold off Cadel in the final TT.  Cadel, man if you are gonna follow wheels the best you can hope for is 2nd.  Ya I know his team sucked the big one but he should have been driving it for all he was worth on Alpe […]

Ask and You Shall Receive

Written on July 23, 2008. Written by The Rev.

That was some showdown today ya?  For someone who supposedly can’t climb Cancellara did a pretty good job of shelling most of the peloton.  It was painful to watch, I can’t imagine what it would be like to follow that monster.  Then to have Andy Schleck covering all the attacks after Sastre went away, it […]

Maybe Tomorrow

Written on July 22, 2008. Written by The Rev.

I have to prface this by saying I have not watched any of todays stage so i may be talking out of my ass more than usual.
Didn’t get the flurry of attacks that I was hoping for today.  Sounds like Schelck #2 again Big Ringed the final climb and did manage to put the hurt […]

Burrito Power

Written on July 21, 2008. Written by The Rev.

Yesterday I got to see some actual Tour de France coverage on the TV.  Hot damn that was some stage yesterday.  How many matches di Andy Schleck burn on that climb?  CSC certainly has the numbers.  Now they have the pressure of defending Yellow.
Poor Cadel is going to learn to late that you can’t wear yellow […]

Spit on The Cobra

Written on July 17, 2008. Written by The Rev.

Riccardo Ricco made no secret that he worshipped Marco Pantani.  He made jaw dropping attacks on the biggest mountains, made up his own nickname, ran his mouth non-stop, and now has been lead from a Grand Tour by the five-O.  His attention to detail is admirable.  At this point I hope he sees it through with […]

Dave Zabriskie Part 1

Written on July 15, 2008. Written by The Rev.

Last year the best part of A Tour de France was the Zabriskie videos on Velonews. Well Velonews doesn’t have him this year but we do! Dave Zabriskie was kind enough to take time from his Olympic preparation to answer a few qustions for the congregation about riding, racing and stage coach robbin’.

COTBR: Have […]
