Blue Streak TT - Fatty Style

I felt better today. 24 hour stomach bug. The weather was too nice not to race. I had to take my Alumium Farley as my Carbon Farley's BB was not spinning at all. Put a new one in over the Winter so who knows. No matter. We did the out n back tonight which I love. I got up to speed fast with a South tailwind. The legs felt good. The last 2 miles to the finish always tells the truth. I gave it my all. 20,5 avg. That's including the turn around which costs .3-.4 mph avg. Good effort! T.Bolt & Tebow did great tonight too. Mooooo!

Venga!

Weekend Wrap Up

 Fun fatty gravel ride in Liberty Saturday after a rest day. It was hot. 97 degrees. I got in 28 miles then called it as severe storms rolled in.  Sunday I  took a few bikes to Bethel working on position. I then did a 20 miler in Cow Country. New KOM on Scarff South. 2 seconds faster with not much wind 13 years later. haha I took a rest day on Labor Day. Ate something that did not agree with me. Argggg!

Fatty MoMBA Thursday

 Another scorcher. I waited until evening when it was only 97 degrees to ride. lol  I had shade in the woods. Fun ride at MoMBA. I worked my way on Twisted & MR. Zig Zag then into Hawk's Lair. I did 10 laps on the ridge. I put in some efforts as the laps got faster. Pretty happy how my bike handling felt. Possibly returning to do the TMBA 4 Hour at the end of the month. Just announced Mad Cow Halloween Fat Bike Race too. More single track rides in the schedule. Moooo!

Venga!

Medway Monday

 I was taking a well earned rest day, but the clouds rolled in. Got out for a 20 miler. It was hot & humid with a small breeze blowing. The clouds helped. I almost got eaten again by that Sasquatch again. lol I put in one effort on Snider Rd. New pavement. I had a headwind, but took 3rd. I'll be back with a North tailwind. Mooohaha. Good ride!

Venga!

Dirty Shoe Gravel Race - Fatty Style

 

I headed to Illinois Friday. I recon'd some of race route for Saturday then hit the hotel. A ton of races I wanted to conflict with my gig schedule plus as I said before, my foot injury hasn't been fun. It's healing slowly. I met the race organizer Friday as I finished my ride. Nice guy. I love grasss roots events. Neat little town. The race started and finished on the horse track. Right in front is the world's largest Horseshoe. The race was fun. Chunky gravel with some fun hills. I rode with the lead guys early, but those gravel bikes pulled away. I was solo until the last 13 miles. Curt joined me. I had a blast on a narrow double track road. I was solo again. There was pavement for a few miles. I was going 21 mph, but Curt caught me again. He put in some nice pulls on the final gravel sections. I cheered him on to attack in the last half mile. We finished doing a lap on the track. Curt finished just in front in 5th with me 6th. It was nice doing a race. I drove straight to my gig. Just made it. haha Fun stuff!

Venga!
