My season is officially done. I dropped my SRM on the ground and it is dead. Without the ability to record power, none of my rides really happen, including racing. I was so distraught over it yesterday that I went to hit a bucket of golf balls, just to be sure that I should stick with cycling before investing in a repair of the SRM. I didn't need anything to tell me that I suck at golf. I am horrible at golf, even more than I suck at cycling, so I am going to really give some thought to entering a softball league.
I sent it back to SRM and they don't work on mine anymore, so I have to find $500 to buy a power control 5. The pic above is what I can get with my $500 smackers. At first I thought that I was done with power, but I am starting to miss the little liars box. I guess I will wait to see if I come across some cash, but I really want to replace it.
I raced without it at Eagle Creek and I was lost the entire time. Actually, I felt like shit in both races that I did and faked a sprint for 3rd in the masters race. All that the liars box would have told me was that I suck, but the doper tells me that all the time, so maybe I should give him $500. My man D.A. won, so it was good that I did not let the team down and we won. The 3's race was weird and the field sprint was a crap shoot. This is something that I intend to avoid in my new softball league, that is crap shoots and field sprints. Hopefully the largest danger entails the lolly gag into the outfield. I really feel like I could contribute to a bunch of lolly gaggers.
On a more interesting note, I got to ride with the one they call Whitlock last week. It was a pure treat. If you think I suck, spend some time with him. I could contend for the Tour after riding with Joe. Just to demorialize his ego completely, I wanted to post it here that I dropped him on flat ground into the wind.
That is all for today. Hopefully I find some cash, recover from a week of training in Dayton for work and come up with something funny to write about.

Does the little liars box remind you to take a dump before the race?
It looks like you forgot to go and as soon as Daly said go you were on a mission to get to the first corner and let your breath out and clear out a deuce!
I can send you my power files until you get your gizmo fixed. On second thought, I don't want you to feel inadequate.

Just win the Winfield crits and the Louisville Metro Police crit and you'll have your cake to pay for the liars box.
Speaking of pre-race evacuations, 2 minimum is necessary, but a 3 lot is recommended to have the get-up-and-go going. Giddy up...
Dave needs his liars box...he has been riding like crap since he broke it. Some one please start a fund for poor ol Enmark.
