are you SURE you want your kid to grow up to be a bike racer? and you wonder why i spend half my training year OFF the bike and ON skis?! this shot is from the World Track Championships in Manchester, England courtesy of the coolest website (next to WF.com, of course) ever…Church Of The High Pines, right here in Durango, CO, baby!
This weekend, ilg is Gone Ski Racing...this is the next to last (that is what ‘Penultimate’ means for those of you that grew up after dictionaries were supplanted by Google) nordic ski racing weekend for me. Just finished my 10k Freestyle Pursuit in 35 minutes (don’t know my placing just yet) and looking forward to tomorrow’s 10k Classic Pursuit! Today, Andrew Ferguson (who took 3rd in 40+) had his latest nickname for me when he picked up this morning, “Namaste, oh Venerable High Priest of the Suffering Brotherhood!”
i don’t know about the “High Priest” stuff…however, the “Suffering Brother (and Sister) Hood”?
yeah, i can dig dat…
bring it tomorrow, ilg! gotta move up in the Overall Series!
