What did we do today? What was it like?
Sunset road race, which is like jumping on a treadmill going 20 mph followed by luging down a ski jump covered with land mines. Oh, and you do it twelve times.
How did I do?
I didn’t because I got time cut the day before.
Quote of the day
“Amp the glutes!!”
Our team rubs various creams all over our body becuase we think it makes us faster so before each stage all of us stand out in public digging deep into our bib shorts with huge handfuls of white cream.
“Rolly gang rolly gang rolly gang SHEEEEEEEEEESH”
I have no idea what it meant, but for a solid 15 minutes before the start I couldn’t get anyone to say anything but that.
“My Mom has lots of birthdays”
Chaz, after getting more shit for not remembering his mother’s birthday.
“Dude, we was BOOLING”
James, describing the pace up the first climb.
“Wait, you have two young kids and a full time job? How do you pull that off?”
“My wife.”
A fellow Dad who chatted me up in the feed zone at the top of the climb who was definitely jealous I was sitll booling on a bike despite having kids.
