Pardon my soap box before i get to the real reason why im wasting your time. More so often I gotta scratch my head and say whats this world coming too, you got folks doin there grocery shopping in there Jammie's, people missing teeth but still got enough bread for that pimp in 4g network gizmo that they got there face stuck in, and TV has went from, Maude the Jefferson and Dragnet, to the Gator boys, two clowns rollin around buyin other peoples bric brac , and Pawn brokers making a living off being made for TV. and that aint even all the bad stuff our society is up to...Hell i ain't against change its just so overwhelming at times it makes me creep more and more as time goes by.
So that brings me to this BRX thing the Barry Roubaix. All though i don't necessarily agree with everything that cat has got on the docket for March 24th, ill leave that up to others.. but besides that, promoters around the scene should take note how a guy can take a once small event and turn it into this Godzilla like thing in a mere short night time. It has now become what in my opinion what others have tried to do with spring classics like ConeAZ or TOWC, made it the first swingin match of the new season, lets face it aint made for everyone and some will, some wont, some will sand bag and others will race up to just "do it". It may not have the life span of the infamous ICEMAN, and by no means does it hold the "party vibe" but its gettin its fair shake for what its worth.
Just when i thought i figured it out.. i lose the grasp of the ever changing world of ours, one minute you pay your 20$ to go with 700+ for the annual Yankee Springs TT on a rigid Mountain bike to ride 12 miles, and now double that for 3x the amount, to go a month early on bikes with Big skinny wheels that shift by buttons to do a 60+ miles gravel road race.

It don't take much to wake me, Im a light sleeper, years of Dragnet and Mr Ed will do that to a guy, besides what most you all don't know...Im creepin while your sleeping. Im in the basement, bouncing thoughts and ideas back and forth off the Kenmore, and the More-Flow. Fighting Demons in the dark, and wrestling with new ones in the bright light. Im taking interviews and speaking to old ghosts, and making down time go in the best way I know. What does all this mean to anyone that gives two bits? I can tell you this if your "IN"...TMS is planning on shoving stuff down the throats that aren't, I ain't promising you a rose garden or the best year to come... but i will, with possible help from friends give it the just it deserves.

On it or under it..Keep Hatin and keep coming back because 2012 is rolling.

2012-01-18T12:06:00.006+01:00

Some Anon'er yesterday asked where id been? Most don't care so its irrelevant what i have been up to, but since I'm up now, and out of the basement, I may as well open my mouth for a brief thought. I have many firm beliefs, and one is just because you have a thought doesn't mean you have to open your trap and speak it everytime it bounces through your grey matter. Sometimes its OK to keep it silent..doesnt mean i dont care..
But one thought that has been bouncing around inside my head and does more often than many is a little self reflection, I'm sure i spoke about it before.. and probably will again but we as humans sometimes need to get re mined, and now that Mother Nature is back on track, and cross season is closed up tighter than tics ass. Its a good time, put on your jungle truckers and stumble through my poor grammer and besides you might learn a thing or two..
I want everyone who choked through this.. at some point to look in the mirror, doesn't have to be now, just do it at some time before you turn the pedals in anger..ask your self some simple questions..

1. For 2012 whether your rolling a new kit right?, or even an old one, you got fools giving ya stuff ?..your reppin.....What do you do to deserve to get the hook ups your getting? think about it..

2. If 2012 is going to be your best year yet, Im going to be in the best shape of my life..What are you going to do to get there?

3. We all talk change. whether be our inner self, or scene change. How ya gonna do it?

4. What fuels your inner machine, without alittle mind fuel you may as well stick to pounding out hot laps at your local loop, hell and even then you gotta have someting to feed off of man cant live by loops alone.

5. And like it or not since hate abounds all of us ..in some way, shape or form, the key is knowing how to put it to a positve use. how ya gonna do it?

Closing, I leave you with this..People ask what gives me the authority to give advice? I say, First of all, I don't give advice. Dr Phil gives advice. Mr T helps people. I motivate them, I inspire them, I give them hope, and I plant the seed so they can feel good about themselves.

Just when things were getting to a boil i gotta step in and shout out a couple things..big thank you too all that hit up those cross polls next door. Simply put... results don't lie at least i hope not although they dont speak for everyone but when you consider the east series only avg about 100 or so odd racers 50% ain't all that bad. I could go on and on and toss hate and love around, like it means nothing.. but i wouldnt wanna bore you,..you know the score...maybe it ain't gonna do no good, maybe it will, Maybe haters finally get there chance...and yes even the loses can get lucky sometime..chew on that for awhile.. get my drift?
Second..Good luck to the dozen or so that still have a few to go before they re-evaluate there plan..T' is solidly with you for the next 2 weeks. from Nationals to worlds.. keep on keeping on.

Lovin to Hate.

Once the spoken words of the infamous EYE GATTO..that's a wrap. Its over..2011 is dead history and braggin rights don't mean shit..at least not around here..I could give you the whole long drug out poor grammar T version, but ill spare Haters that opportunity to throw disgust TMS's way, besides I got 2.5 months of idle time before any real racing gets rollin to let that hate flow. Instead, ill give you what your fellow ridin buddies gave T as there Good, Bad and Ugly of 2011..dont be afraid to pipe in...as t has come to accept Hatin is just as good as lovin if done in the right ways....

Krampus is a mythical creature recognized in Alpine countries. According to legend, Krampus accompanies Saint Nicholas during the Christmas season, warning and punishing bad children, in contrast to St. Nicholas, who gives gifts to good children. When the Krampus finds a particularly naughty child, it stuffs the child in its sack and carries the frightened child away to its lair, presumably to devour for its Christmas dinner

Ive been meeting with an old friend a few times aweek, and we do what old friends do, we cuss, we discuss, rate and debate, different aspects of our life could everything from chili dogs to Atlanta hotshoes... Its a good thing... since both of us are on two different planes, so it gives each of us a clear shot at Truth talk. Ive been told that people like straight shooters, someone who doesn't pull punches and comes at em 100%..Id like to think thats true..but in some cases...(heavy sigh) sadly enough it isnt. My good friend has tried to keep an outsiders view of what im about to lay on you, so take in mind it aint all T's cryin.

What im trying to get at while the thoughts are still fresh in most sceners mind is alittle input.. on what can make the 2012 Eastside pride cross scene what it needs to be other than the color grey. So i assembled a few quick surveys to your right and if you all could take some time to input honest ansers that would make this time worhtwhile..believe it or not the avg number of folks visiting TMS weekly from September through early December nearly doubles that of the regular season. that tells me that someone cares. and believe it or not those that bring this shit to you, care as well and theres a dam good chance they come here. Your output depends on your input..if the classes dwindle and riders lose interest..theres a good chance you ain't gonna get any more output...get my drift?

Keep on keepin on.... as TMS and myself respect all your thoughts immensely..

Once again... had this whole big elaborate big story laid out, the whole toe/toe day ....but a simple image was brought to T's attention and it put him in a quandary...which way do i go? because too much of a good thing leaves you punch drunk..?.not enough leaves you searching for more so that being said im gonna throw out two stories if you can muddle through T's poor grammar maybe you will get my drift, and maybe you dont.......
Long: You needed your jungle truckers just waid through the sloppy details....Its so hard I kinda wanna just close the season out in brief being that it left so many with soggy hearts and the braggin rights shelved. Oh sure you all got fuel for your fire of 2012 season.. if there is one, the Lil Pony used his shit kickers to kick some shit in a ride second to none.... while the new German State Champion suddenly creates a super power and makes the rest of the elites look like there turning BigRay gears....But in short its done..Masters was like lookin into a rich broads closet many don't know what Clarks to choose cuz it got thick like no other time and left mainstays trippin over there own fancy pumped up kicks and allowed Hatred to get in there way of there dreams. the Monster stayed away and kept the trophy, and you coulda got funds in elite womens even if you showed up with Cfm's all ...To peak for the day you had to be questionable, cuz it was it gonna be like using your butt cheeks to pick up Vaseline covered pencils unless your like to gamble because that one crazy fool had enough in the Moon boots once again to keep the quota up for uncle bobby...
The Cross eyed suffocation end always has a weird way of bringing people together and leaving them united in its own bizarre way..when you got the Surly bastard winnin and washin steeds ya know it can only end funky..I dunno..... all the pre race hype seemed to over ride what everyone was dancing for, but much like alotta things in life once you get it...its not all its cracked up to be..ahh but its cross...... bad day in the mud sure as hell beats a good 65 degree dry day..cuz this is gonna be that one your all gonna speak of from BITD..."I remember when".....but you know T's rule...... you got five years...

I know about peer pressure and all that, but I say, "Hey, they called me a sissy because I wouldn't join the gang. Who was calling me a sissy? Does it make me a sissy because somebody called me a sissy?"I'm going to fight if you touch me or hurt me . But if you call me a bad name, or whatnot, I'm too smart for that. "If I fought every time somebody called me a name, I would never get out of my own dam way. But I'm disciplined. I'm smarter than that, like My mother said, "Consider the source."

MRT: I know Gary, but its so nice see you,out of the Basement and all.

Gary: Yea i thought a change of scnere would do me some good.

MRT: Im just tickled ignorant that you got time for The TM 2011 cross predictions

Gary: well Lawrence like i said before i dont do it, but ive been around long enough to through some of my lil insignfact opinions

MRT: I hear ya i aint a Hater like so many close to me are.

Gary: amen Lawrence Amen.

MRT: so lets hit this stuff freestyle....

Gary: I aint all that much on callin out favorites, but i do have to say this i sure as hell glad i aint haulin my little black booty up that ridiculous thing they call the orange crush. I hope mother nature stays happy or those lil suckers, like the Goocher kids or the fast master cat are gonna be hatin like Bissell.

MRT: i hear ya Gary..i hope for dry conditions and bet that Roadking does as well, mudder i hear he aint, and I aint hatin.

Gary: yea he aint a roller like the Wizard , when it gets greasy.

MRT: or questionable Sven.

Gary: Im scared of that stern dude, im glad i cant look him in the eye..

MRT: so who's your elite pick

Gary: Sven..but i can figure him out he's on one minute and the next minute he is kinda grey, I didnt know the plan worked like that?

MRT: so thats your pick?

Gary: If he is on...

MRT: I think gettin on the boxes in that race is gonna be a ride..

Gary: id agree..not like Battle of the Network stars was..

MRT: yea...thats said that shit was rigged...any others?

Gary: Masters used to have me on the edge of my chair, but the 2011 season has me wantin more ya know players n all?

MRT: numbers are low but angst aint..

Gary: the Rocky like figure gets me hypin, but i just can get jazzed over the dude in the coffee kit, its nothin personal but his kit gives me throw backs to Silver spoons.

Glenns Power Rankings

2011-11-25T12:08:00.007+01:00

MRT: well Glenn it is you isnt it?

Glenn: yea its me you got a problem with it?

MRT: well no but with the no-show last week and all ya know havin the sniffles etc

Glenn: I didnt have the sniffles muther fucker, i had a sick Tabby , and Biscuits needed to see the vet and I didn't have time for silly adult games, besides Axl owed me.

MRT: yea right..what for?..did Axl owe you

Glenn:Ill tell you later right now i gotta call out this shit so i can get over Children's Palace for Black Friday's special

MRT: whatcha lookin for?

Glenn: Action figures muther fucker, and some stuff for my nieces..

MRT: ya know I got toys comin out before Christmas?

Glenn: yea hopefully it isnt made by Galoob cuz that shit is junk.

MRT: no comment.

Glenn: lets get it on I grab some names out the Halloween basket and came up with the also rans pack filler, WTF's...and guys that get on the box but arent a real challenge to the big numbers..

WTF ... Sven Baumman. @ questionable wattage. neutral on all 3 basics, and a perceived wattage of questionable. "Don't know much about this German bad ass, but riding around Vets park with his mouth closed beating everyone is a questionable sight and leaves me with a questionable...WTF"

WTF JB Hancock @ 250 watts, neutral on all skill levels, perceived wattage 250. "JB BABY needs to get serious and pay some one or figure that shit on how to train properly I mean for Jesus sake the real CZAR of cross for so many years, hypes and blogs and has the kit and the look but every year its the same ol sloppy watts. You have been doing it too long...figure it out JB or just pick a new discipline its ok we aint hatin"

WTF Matt Baroli @260 neutral on skills and pedal efficiency, and a -20 on his head, perceived @ 240w. "Maybe Matt is too nice for cross, he should learn what the word commitment is and apply it to all the time he spends forking over cash for this stupid sport, or he should just become the driver for the team van and call it good"

ON THE BOX Jay Moncel @ 305, neutral on pedal efficiency and skills, -10 on his head. perceived wattage of 295. "Jay is better than he thinks, and that's the problem he needs to leave his thinking head at home, stop following wheels.. and race without it. His results would improve and so would his confidence plain and simple"

ON THE BOX (last yr) Corey Stange @ 300, 310 " when he is not shot, plain simple the Mustange is tired and my assumption why 2011 was a complete trip in the pain cave. maybe next year? cuz this kid was on the verge, and had the skills to get there, less emphasis on becoming a pro roadie and more on a solid crosser would do him good.

ALSO RAN Rich Stark @ 260 neutral on all three basics. perceived wattage @ 260. Rich's biggest asset is his experience, once an Elite podium sniffer...but the lack proper training leaves him class jumping now and trying to find his sweet spot, now he is up in the 45 bracket and that could spell the end of any elite podium time, oh well theres always Single speed, or maters 35 or 45 or B or??..

TSOB Adam York @325 -5 on skills +5 pedal efficiency, and +15 on his race head, perceived wattage 340. I would like to see this guy come in with fresh legs and focus on cross, cuz this muther fucker is tough as nails, not scared of anyone and i love that shit..i got all these vision of him going down swinging, bleeding and just fuckin still killin dudes..but too many race weekends and body issues left him hopping home for good healing. Too bad maybe next year cuz this dude screams TMS cross. one Tough son of a bitch plain and simple

B thankfull

2011-11-24T13:20:00.009+01:00

Maybe Miscene cross is too serious?

2011-11-22T18:40:00.000+01:00

Plan B

2011-11-22T10:07:00.005+01:00

So many thoughts and words could be spit out about all of last weekend, I had planned a big long report of two days of great crossin in Miscene...But I decided against the long version, and im going with plan B, which is very befitting to how the weekend came to its end.
Bloomer park, been on the schedule longer than any other venue, and its always one of T's favorite, the memories and history run deep.....I could give you the number times we pinned em on there, I could recall past winners, what state champion was crowned there, Miscenes first UCI race and how now super cross star...JPOW almost missed his start readin Auto Trader, or when "just a pup"..JB nearly cracked the 10 in the A race against some fast comp, how about SuperDave K gettin run over by the EvilDude and some Suburban Home rider, Ron Stack beating the Black Ace on a MTB to take 2nd in the elite race behind the then UN-beatable LIL PONY....Or how at the present time the RoadKing pays back the nearly UN-beatable German Giant, and some Tanguy climbs on the boxes. Paramachicken works on his final prep for a possible Re-Peat.. the LIL pony rolls home, DC blows Sky HIGH.....or how about How Jgood comes in like Balboa..but leaves like Creed..gettin toppled by that LIL British squirt again, good thing he didnt have that Slayer dude in his group cuz it would a been lights out for him too... The Crossguy rethinks his plan for the National Title quest, multiple fools ride mouths open searching for more oxygen as fans cheer around the course. Bob W nearly misses the triple of DFL's..the one they call Big Mac gets sauced. Kelli P beats the Canadian Quiring Chick, and Queen Anne may call it a season...NO im not gonna give all the small highs and lows, and no shows, and MIA's and banter about who is going where and tire pressure needs to be run......its what the EYE GATTO used to refer to as..in the books..

Rest up fools as The Final battle is creepin, its gonna be so Good it brings a big ol crocodile tear to T's eye he pinnin it on..

MRT: Glenn your alittle late where you been?

Axl: IM NOT GLENN, YOU TOOLBOX.

MRT: Axel what you doing here? and where the hell is Glenn.

Axl: i dunno I hear he called in sick last week, i got a call Thursday night TMS said they needed a power ranking post. I owed a favor ya, know..pisses me off though cuz i know that evil muther aint sick, i saw him hauling two bags of tidy cat up his front walk to that creepy ol spook house he lives in, Friday afternoon and he sure as hell wasn't any paler than he normally is.

MRT: so what ya been up?

Axl: this aint about me, Im here through what numbers, strictly my mine... just like any other asshole i got em.

1. Mike Wiz, @ 340. neutral on skills and pedaling efficiency, -5 for for his head. perceived @ 335w. "Mike is one of the few some "jerk" refer d to as the old guard, when his head his screwed down tight he is nearly UN-beatable, multiple state wins, and USGP jersey are proof...other times its "tits up" but plain simple he is still the one.

2. Tom Burke @ 330 -5 for skills, neutral on pedal efficiency and +5 on his game day head. perceived @ 330w. "Tom is good ...real good, but he just cant stop racing, i betcha he races school kids up the school steps on his way to work, i like the spirit... but i think sometimes his legs don't like all that racin,..if he could improve on his starts and his tech skills and he could be the one"

3. Mark Parmachicken @ 330, neutral on all three factors. perceived 330W. "Mark is good all around, but looks to gained alittle weight this season and isnt rollin his 2010 commanding hand, But i wouldn't rule him out....state championship are not givin to fuckers, he earned it and isn't a softy"

4. Jeff the LIL PONY. @300, +15 on skills, +5 on his pedaling efficiency, and neutral to- on his head, perceived @ 320w. "the LIL PONY....the best bike handler TMS cross has ever scene, turns and dismounts like a national champ, when his head is one he is a factor, but 98% it looks like he would rather be somewhere else"

5 Vinny Roberge @300 +5 on skills -5 pedal efficiency, +5 on his head, perceived @ 305W. "Vinny can be on or off, but his head is his strength he is a fighter and isn't afraid to attack and take big chances, hasn't been fully committed in 11 but he still rides well"

to be continued....

MRT: hey Glenn where ya been pal?

Glenn: Dont call me pal, my MOTHER gave me a name a dam good one, i hate fuckin nick names.

MRT: Ok..well did you have a good weekend?

Glenn: yea it was tough spent some time snoopin through other peoples things.

MRT: yea, well hows that?

Glenn: I hit up this fuckin estate sale, scored some vintage knives, toys, and a pristine couch that was dated to the late 60's, it closely resembles the one at the local funeral parlor i used to work at it not the most comfortable thing, but then again they don't want to spending all night there, as normal calling hrs are a 3hr stint. It aint no Value City cheapie..

MRT:toys what kind? ya know i got some coming out this holiday season.

Glenn: I know hopefully there not made by Remco, cuz that shit is junk. I bought some Ohio art toys the makers of Etcha Sketch, i like to draw when im on the road..

MRT: well anyway what have you drawn up for TMS on the Power rankings? cant be much left, were down to a few classes.

Glenn: i have been rackin my brain on the final.. and i have to say it hasn't been easy, the level of the 2011 field is closer than it has been in years, not to mention the consistency of those that show..Im gonna take alittle more time and drop em in a bit

MRT: I hear the dead line is this weekend

Glenn: I know when it is..

after the weekends gig.

2011-11-15T12:12:00.008+01:00

This past weekend had some time spend with my old friend Gary its been awhile and we needed some catchin up time. He couldnt be here to speak but sends his best. We talked and he had questions, and I had some answers, and I also had none. I also threw out some to him ...we spoke laughed and talked of a mix of who, why what when and if..We came to a conclusion that not all questions have answers...pure and simple, Radio shack says different but when you go there to get those little wire thingies that tie your cables.. the you twenty some thin just stands and points you to the cell phones and remote control muscle cars..makes T question why the hell would they even brother? ...by now my drift is completely lost for most, so lets roll on to what the weekend for the Scene has been up to here on the Eastside??
Tailwind Stoneycross, most of the few that went could drive there with there eyes closed..same ol same ol Stoney.. no disrespect but how many has it been? ...cant blame Tailwind, cuz when you hold a Biggie 6 hrs away it may take a few from the line like 10 or so...so my only question before I go over highs and lows is.....

why, after Nov 4th do you all run and hide?

High: QueenAnne comes back laps the field
Low: Field is few
High: Sven lays down another impressive walk away... laps 1/2 the field
Low: the field is 5
High: JB: gets on the podium
Low: he doesnt give his cash to Sven

High: orange Gloves wins SS
Low: misses a double in master 35
High: long laps
Low : Sven still laps 1/2 the field
High: long run
Low: they change the course
High: the wildlife
Low: the poop
High: racing 2 classes
Low : getting shelled in both
High: two races left
Low: two races left.
High: Svens wattage

High: fat tires sand
Low skinny tires and sand
High: beer

2011-11-11T01:34:00.008+01:00

MRT: Glenn you look tired, too much Dragnet?

Glenn: No.. Flintstone Marathon on Cartoon Network had me up late

MRT: dam Glenn cartoons is for kids

Glenn: alot you know, the Flintstones was a prime gig time back in the day.

MRT: i didnt know that.

Glenn: yep they even had a contest to name Fred and Wilma's Baby..

MRT: Glenn you know a lil about alot.

Glenn: yep,

MRT: favorite Flintstone episode?

Glenn: that's easy the One you don't see very often the one where Fred and Barney go out for ice cream for there wives, but quickly get side tracked following this Hot leggy long hair babe who is really a spy and they end up in a open volcano getting held against there will by Dr Sinister...tooo fuckin cool..

MRT: anyways...just Lookin over this list here id think you had a problem with the men of Michigan masters 35+

Glenn: why do you say that?

MRT: well there's more than your favorite number, but you only put down 6
Glenn:racin is too close to narrow it down to the Satans favorite, so got a also ran list coming up in a few days at the closing of my opinions..

MRT: your drift is harder to catch than mine

Glenn: read on..

1.Lil Simon Bailey: @ 270 +10 for skills,+5 for pedaling efficiency, -5 for his cross head, perceived @ 280..."Simon has been doing the cross this as long as lot of the old guard and once was a top 5 guy waaaay back in the day..but is alittle too nice needs to attack more, but because of solid experience still i give him the #1 nod"

2. John Osgood. @275, +5 for skills -10 for pedaling efficiency and +10 for his game day cross head. percieved @ 280w. "John is good and getting better, by far the most improved rider, he is like the Rocky figure of tailwind cross.. all heart, but his size is a hindered, lose the brews, and do some some bigger races before the thoughts of handling Miscene elite cross should be thoughts in his head, when you got Master guys like the WIZ, PONY, Moncel and the Black Ace killing each other it aint gonna be piece cake look, the numbers don't lie..But that being said,...tough dude.

3.Dave "theCrossguy" Johnson, @275 neutral on skills and pedaling efficiency , and -5 on his game winning head. perceived @ 270w.. "Dave is getting better but needs some other racing during the season to work on his headand low watts, seems to flake at times, not a good combo when the stats are so close"

4.JMAK @ 265 neutral on skills, and pedaling efficiency, and +5 on his cross head, perceived 270w. "Jamak, has been racing for a while..has a good knowledge how to do it, but takin too many days off the bike mid season doesn't do a thing for a solid power out put, But his brains and the longevity are his strong points"

5. Jim Hildritch @ 265w +5 for skills,-5 for pedaling efficiency, -5 for his cross brains. perceived w@ 260 "Jim has jumped around a bit this year, stay in one group and go solid"

6. Rob Selle @ 275 neutral on skills -5 for pedaling efficiency, and -10 for his cross head perceived 260w...Rob is another guy who size is a limiter, but he has an advantage of racing other discipline to help his head, But tends more time than often than not, and ride above his numbers leaving him in suffocation mode.

3. Richard Rainville @270 w +5 for skills, +5 for pedaling efficiency, -5 for his race head. perceived w275 "This Rainville kid has been around it was just yesterday he was beating up on the Goocher kid, now he has went to the line with the Wiz n chicken, but that being said only time will tell if he is the chosen one"

4. Mike Belanger @270w +5 for skills -5 for pedaling efficiency, neutral on his cross head. perceived w@ 270 "Don't know much about this guy except he keeps comin back week in and week out, could be a spoiler"

6. Joe Brown. @268w +5for skills, neutral on all others, perceived 273w ...Joe B just keeps turning the pedals needs to stop screwin around but father time is pullin his ass hard..

Glenns Power Rankings

2011-11-08T18:20:00.006+01:00

MRT: so Glenn refresh me how is this gonna work?

Glenn: after I collect my guesstimated DATA, I will take a Guesstimated baseline 30 minute threshold wattage number..because cross is such tech savvy sport where sheer watts are not always the winner..were gonna give a + or - of say 5.. for the following
1.pedaling efficiency
2.skills, dismounts and running
3. cornering technique
4. there mental being.
make sense T? or do i need to elaborate more in depth?

MRT: makes sense to us, so your saying a person could put out X number whats but cant corner worth a dam, and is a head case, which in this case may lower his Miscen CX power ranking.

Glenn: correct

MRT: I gotta feeling your gonna have some upset folks not catching your drift and be well down right grouchy.

Glenn: that's OK im used to people not getting, why the hell should they now, Im just doing the fuckin assignment TMS threw at me.

MRT: so, lets roll..

Glenn: In time dont be so dam impatient your like a small fuckin child.

MRT. Hey Glenn i didn't think id see you this season

Glenn: why

MRT: well with Henry not renewing.

Glenn: what the fuck? you think were a couple?

MRT: Naw not all ...dont get all mid-evil on me.

Glenn: well i aint got nothin going on for the next 3.5 weeks, I know a thing or two about this Miscene cross thing...and I get a kick out of the pain faces some of these mother fuckers throw down so why not. besides i got freinds in Detroit.

MRT: pain faces huh? ya know we all got em scene yours...

Glenn: yea some more than other Dam..

MRT: I hear throw me your best.

Glenn: ahh Hell i hate callin guys out but some the best are the ones with wide gaping mouths, ya know like in complete suffocation..fuckin too funny..

MRT: you didnt give us any..

Glenn: ok dudes like Moncel, grittin his teeth, Rob Selle Mouth agape lookin for air..That stange kid the look of being tired. The entire C field is like the Bataan death march..but hell i didnt come here to talk about that, but it sure would make a dam good topic...

MRT: I hear ya, so whats up with these power rankings your thinking of?

Glenn: well I dont know if any these guys use the wattage meter, but i can assume what some are really bumpin out, and hypin out.

MRT: fair enough.

Glenn: Im also gonna throw a + or - for bike handling skills, (dismounts,running cornering etc..so a guy could be lower on watts but be a better skilled rider so that would bump him up a few slots on my power rankings.

MRT; i get it. But its your assumption just guessing..

Glenn: Thats right..

MRT: well shoot... where do we start?

Glenn: not now the Flintstones are on, Im still compiling..ill let ya know

MRT sounds good Glenn Ill be waiting.

T.G.I. Fridays is a good solid restaurant, been around for awhile much like every other neighborhood bar and grill, I know its not all posh, white table clothes and reservation, or Dick O Dow like... but there's something about a plate of TGIF potato skins and the chicken sesame salad that does a tired soul good after a long weekend of Christmas, New year and your Birthday all wrapped up in one. One might find it odd you can find solace among so many, but you can indeed I spent some T-time mulling over TMS and misc stuff in a place filled with laughter and cheer. and while this 1st week of dark season gets rollin the buzz of ICEMAN, dirty dancing, puking, triple crowns, WCF, PR's, Orbitsunnin, skinny euro dudes., gimme's and freebies, swag bags and hag bags, Godfathers in Ugly shirts, shots, High hopes, and heartbreaks, creepy mustaches, Cx'ers at large. thoughts of next years ICEman, and getting stuck in lousy waves, comebacks, ugly cats, rants and raves, hangovers and hugs, big watts and big lies.hating, faking aching and all the other UN-mentionable s..
So for all those hiddin Beautiful minds abound...Don't let the post Iceman depression get the best of you, keep the the tears of the past to a few and revel in today. cuz as of right now that's all you have.

Hate on..

A Beautiful Mind

2011-11-03T23:47:00.004+01:00

Before most of you head on your merry way to which ever big weekend festivity you got on the docket I thought id drop a little anon science, It don't get much better than discovering another beautiful mind, its even more fulfilling when its Goes TMS anon style like the one below, It don't matter who it came from what doe's matter to me at least, is nearly every dam word out of this fool hit T like the sweet smelling love from his Atlanta pals.

When microwaving vegetables pretend the steam escaping are their screams.

Fall leaves are awesome, at hiding dog shit.

Cross races should be dirty.

Cleaning the bike all night has you wondering what it means to be the off season.

Fuck, why did I put the garden hose away.

Halloween brings out the hoes and the freaks.

Everyone talks about the end of their season, not the start.

Since when did we need excuses to drink beer and party?

A wise man once said nothing. He probably dead. Get a stick...

Count your calories bitch, you aren't riding!

Eyes of intensity turned to madness.

Hey Joe, where you going with that gun in your hands?

Late season starts make big season hitters concede.

Women make slow legs, but weigh weenies applaud loss of testicular weight.

Wait, beer has calories?

Beer is paleo diet approved.

What the fuck is the paleo diet?

Yearly race count is like dick size...

Wheel size is like dick size...

Can Brian Matter loose more weight?

Trek's big wheel carbon need to gain some weight.

Brian Matter still rides a 26er full suspension with a Camelbak. Stuff it industry.

Fuck where did the year go...

Nothing can kill Simonster. Not even Simonster.

If I drink more coffee maybe the hangover will go away faster...

My microwave sounds like a Holocaust. Shut up vegetables.

People are strange, but strangers are friendly.

Free candy tastes better than the stuff you can buy.

Halloween sluts....come back, please.

January CX has people taking more late season breaks than teamsters.

They say always do what you love...but isn't that selling out?

Goose shit trumps dog shit. It's the quantity, not the smell.

A wise man once said you can't have two break out years in a row.

Why are cops always on cellphones?

SvenZeGerman is bringing it back.

Team shell games are coming to a close.

If more people attend the Bell's party no one will be able to party.

Fuck the snarky snipers.

People bitch about getting older. Can't wait till they bitch about being dead.

Maybe you should get a divorce?

Why did you have kids?

Fuck car and house payments.

Wow, that sucks. Did you see the sluts this Halloween?

There are ten ways to get to the podium. A thousand ways to die.

Hate on Fools..Hate on

NUVO team, now merged with Bissell.

2011-11-03T12:09:00.002+01:00

For the past several months, the NUVO Cultural Trail cycling team has been gaining new riders. It has seemed as though they were amassing a whole new army. And, well, they were. The announcement comes today that the Bissell Masters/Elite cycling team and the NUVO Cultural Trail cycling team will be merging into one single USA Cycling NRC Amateur team for 2012 and beyond.

This means several things. Bissell Pro Cycling has agreed to take at least two riders from the amateur team to race as professionals during the final months of the 2012 season.

Bissell and Advantage Benefits have now committed to an amateur development team that will bridge the gap between grassroots racing and the pro ranks.

NUVO Cycling Team Director Declan Doyle had the following to say about the merger: “We’ve already proven we can develop young talent from Indiana and beyond. We’re the ones who plucked Eric Young from the Little 500 in Bloomington and helped him join the Bissell pro team. Now he’s pro national champ. By officially working with Bissell’s pro team, we can do for other young riders what we’ve done for Eric. I am very excited.”

The team has also committed to donating all of its prize money from two team events to World Bicycle Relief. World Bicycle Relief changes lives by purchasing bicycles for individuals in developing nations who cannot afford them, thus giving them life-changing mobility and freedom.

BISSELL-ABG-NUVO will use a group of experienced racers to provide leadership and mentoring to the team’s young superstars. This exciting merger results from the collaboration between NUVO Team Director, Declan Doyle and Bissell Masters racer, Derek Witte, both of whom will assist with team management during 2012. Aaron Hubbell, himself a former National champion and elite track rider, will round out the management team.

New riders for 2012 include:

• Mac Brennan, 21, East Jordan MI
• Josh Johnson, 19, Ft. Wayne, IN
• Weston Luzadder, 21, Indianapolis, IN
• Alex Vanias, 21, Leroy, MI
• Alexey Vermeulen, 18, Ann Arbor, MI
• Alex Wieseler, 22, Indianapolis, IN
• Jason Fowler, 29, Indianapolis, IN
• Scott Catanzaro, 23, Indianapolis, IN
• Kevin Depasse, 21, Bloomington, IN

• Jon Jacob, 32, Evansville IN
• Joe Kukolla, 23, Indianapolis IN
• Daniel Lam, 37, Kalamazoo, Michigan
