    Is this what we’ve come to? Hyper-criticism of others’ posts? Nitpicking of innocent spelling and grammatical errors?

    Let's use this as a teachable moment.

    I think I just threw-up in my mouth.

    Another podium for Jack, nice job! I've looked on the NAMBLA or TMBRA or whatever website for results, but it's too foreign for my feeble brain. Did rwetherald podium as well?

    [QUOTE=Vic;1065046]After watching the Lajitas YouTube video posted by Don J. I have been looking at mountain bikes and reading whatever I can find about the right type of bike to purchase.

    If you would have asked me around noon on Saturday I would have sold you mine. I went on a shop ride to Walnut Creek and tried to stay up with the hot shots. I had the legs but not the bike handling skills. I ate some dirt on one loop, and on another loop I crashed and slid down a muddy embankment into a muddy creek. It would have been suitable for America's Funniest Videos had it been video taped. No injuries or damage except to my pride. I'm back on the trainer starting tomorrow....

    Don, I've had to reevaluate my opinion on your salesmanship. ;-)

    Glad you're pride is the only thing hurt. I wish that was all that I had injured right about now!

    Yes, I now have incontrovertible evidence that missing your start time is a huge performance liability. Rick, you're welcome to add that information to your race notes...
