    Since we're bragging, I'd like to point out that this weekend I laid
    smack down. I think that's good:

    It's good to hear you laid down the smack, that stuff is bad for you.

    😉

    Seriously, congratulations on your Cyclocross victory. I'm hoping to take
    start the beginner's cyclocross that's offered out here next year. I was
    hoping to do it this year, but between work and home and breaking my frame
    I think I'll try again next fall.

    It's difficult to bump your head on it if
    you simply stand it up.

    It's also less difficult to stub your bare toes on it when it's hanging
    up.

    I considered x-posting to rbt to see if anyone there would be
    sufficiently humourless to take it at face value - but decided not to
    :-)

    Damn! They said they wouldn't publish that photo of me!

    Did you get it in writing?

    OK, ok, so they aren't pictures of me. Anyone could tell that. My [censored] are
    a lot bigger than hers.

    So, are you into this cyclocross thing, or was this
    just a one-off lark?

    Well, that was my first race. It will not likely be my last. Right now
    it looks like the plan is to put very skinny (30 mm) cross tires on the
    road bike and bring that and the MTB to the rest of the races this
    season.

    I have a hunch the road bike will get the most use.

    To put it briefly, I found 'cross racing pretty enjoyable and I show a
    modicum of talent for it, so I shall continue to race it until it's not
    fun. It makes for a nice no-pressure off-season activity, and for a lot


    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    You just can't stop competing for an off-season, eh? :-) :-)
    But I guess it keeps ya sharp.

    of reasons 'cross is a bit lower-key (at least in terms of attitude)
    than road racing.

    I hope it involves some fun little primes to "make it interesting".

    If it's not muddy, probably.

    The difference is basically that I haven't invested any time in
    seriously training for these races.

    Last weekend only the A race got to ride for the 6-pack of Heineken
    offered as the first-lap prime.
