Nash-Vegas Bound!


I am anxiously awaiting our annual spring trip. This year we are headed to scenic Nash-Vegas for the 3rd year in a row. The numbers are down this year, but we still managed to scrounge up some riders. I can't wait to just ride my bike for a few days. Here is the who's who of the trip for this year.

After being a puss bag last year, Spencer is coming back, hopefully with more watts than he took to the fitness test at Mario's. He cried the last time we went, so I am excited to see if we get him to drop Trent this time.

Also on the list is the cougar slayer, Big Daddy Garland. He is hitting the rollers more than semi-annually and is promising a '99 like season. Makes me miss Whitlock, who is also stuck in '99. I am sure that Garland will be pimpin' large. Can't wait to show him Percy Warner Park.

Also on the list is the "new" Trent. He should be much better than "old" Trent. Last year he pussed out on the long day, stitching his flip flaps and crying on Rich's should in the hotel room. No pillow biting out of him this year, he is 30 pounds lighter and bringing 30 more sustainable watts of power with him. He should rip it, but I expect that by the end he will look like this photo. A pretty normal view of him actually.

Grumpy Bill is going and planning on killing the miles, showing us how it was back in his day like Grandpa Simpson. He also promised to give cougar slaying lessons to Garland, which should make for a 50+ mile conversation. Lawyers chasing tail. Sounds like a Kennedy convention to me.

Special guest to include a member of the U.S. Army. Details to come.

If you want to ride multiple 100 mile days in Nash-Vegas, email me.

Was that the picture after my warm up or after my test?

Actually, that might have been the pic after watching Dave hit 1400 watts and realizing I have no chance.
Sometimes when the bear attacks, it's best just to lay there and play dead.

Careful with the Kennedy comments. You're knocking Bill's hero and we don't want him to get angry and flog us on the climbs.
