Huge bonfire, lots of cowbell, and maybe even some schralpage! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He NEVER liked riding road, just did it to train for cx. Once covid hit and all the races got cancelled he quit training because he didn't want to train when there were no races. He really likes High school Xc and swim. He trains hard at them. I still have hope that he may do tri again one day but I think Cx is done. It was a good run. He is still super active and is happy competing in high school sports so that is all I care about. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard for me to commit this early until I see what staffing levels are like at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell G I said hi. Will do. I hate it but mainly for me, not him. I really enjoyed the Cx scene. But it does make it easier for Emmy's softball schedule since there is only one of me and two kids. I also think that him getting his driver's license had something to do with it as well. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's cruisin' for chicks in the jeep Having a driver's license gets old, along w/ dealing w/ cars and their troubles and costs. Do I sound old? Bikes don't get old though I've only seen once CX race, years ago. But I see pics on Strava. It looks like a party on 2 wheels. Some take it more serious than others I reckon. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerrySTL ★ Posted October 19, 2021 Share #12 Posted October 19, 2021 P8, Digital Photog, and I were at the Worlds in Louisville a few years ago. Well worth seeing. Of course P8 only lived across the Ohio River from Louisville and I was driving through to Cincinnati that day. I might try to go to Arkansas in January. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hit the Road Worlds in Richmond and it was 100% a great time. If you're able to swing it again, clearly you'll enjoy it again! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
