Racing Is Racing – Leg 2 Vision Relay
Jun 09, 2017 Todd Brown
Racing is racing. Yes, I signed on to “race” with my pals in the Non-Competitive division of the Vision Relay… but trust me, it’s competitive. We’ve already had to Nascar 4 flats. Now, we’ve got a bloody arm with a deeply scraped and bruised hand hanging off the end. This is racing. Things go wrong,..
A Dam Fine Day
Jun 08, 2017 Todd Brown
Vegas is hot. Mike says it’s dry. At 630, plenty hot. Hell, it was hot last night when we pulled in at 1230. We’re on our way to Moab, to race back to St George: The Vision Relay. Before we get there, Chris insists we do the best ride in Vegas, the Hoover Dam. It’s..
Robots.
Jun 07, 2017 Todd Brown
They race like robots, say the old riders. Head down. Looking at their numbers. Robots are taking over, everything. Big data, big results. Power meters on the bikes, heart rate monitors on the riders, radios in the ears, electric shifting… delivering a predictably predictable product. Wouldn’t it be great to toss it all out? Metering..
Speed Is In The Air
Jun 06, 2017 Todd Brown
For the past 5 weeks The TMWC has been a little bigger, a little snappier. A few more riders, from a few more miles away pop in to check it out. Carpetbaggers, come to crush the regulars. This happens every year, and every year some outsider comes away with the title: Travis Wilkerson, Fabrizio Von Nacher, Robert..
Battle Hymns
Jun 05, 2017 Todd Brown
Music makes me wanna shred the trails. But… it’s gotta be right. Right beat. Right words. Right angst. Drench my bones… TWITCH! No playlists for me. Give me one song. Turn it to 10. Play it over, AGAIN! … an arrow and bow, let’s go!
GMR – TT For Sure I’ll Beat That Guy
Jun 03, 2017 Todd Brown
He looks like God, after a full journey on Earth. Blazing white hair, a smile to warm you. Yes, he’s pushed the cranks around a few times. He’s just happy to be here, racing… little did I know behind that smile rests the confidence of a killer. Herb Johnson is 72, and will rip your legs off...
Circle X Ranch
Jun 03, 2017 Todd Brown
Hey there, would you boys like some ice water? High above the Malibu coast it was pushing 88 degrees and we were covered in salt. 45 minutes prior, on Mulholland, I’d drained my last bottle… Yes, that would be wonderful. This was a scouting ride for HUNKR – Malibu, and we were counting on the Circle X Ranch..
Moved.
Jun 01, 2017 Todd Brown
2 years ago we moved to San Clemente. The commute has been a grind at times, 60-90 minutes a day. In the car. But, you get used to it. After many years in the same office location. It becomes familiar, and mysteriously secure. Packing up the office yesterday I felt a little fear, fear of..
The Plate
May 31, 2017 Accounting Bookkeeping
If you join AAA you get their premium DMV service – nice office, no lines, pleasant workers… who seem to love what they do. One day I went in to take care of some moto registration issues and asked, Hey can you check on a custom plate for me? Sure. What do you want? PDL..
Al Ou Mini Um
May 30, 2017 Todd Brown
Alouminium, Bob said. What? Al-ou-minium. Huh? Al-ou-minium… like the foil. Oh, aluminum. He’s English. I’m ‘Merican. Ever since then, when I say aluminum I pronounce it in my head alouminium… which is often now that I have an aluminum frame bicycle, again. Cycling Tips‘ podcast covering frame stiffness is really interesting. They put forth that..
Wanna Be Starting Something
May 29, 2017 Todd Brown
It’s 530AM. The speedo says 85. Michael’s cranked:.. … Wanna be starting something, gotta be starting something… At 730AM I’m gonna be racing my first SoCal business park crit in 22 years. 4 turns. Wide straights. Thunderous announcing. I recognize a few of the names from the Race Predictor… which has me predicted to finish..
