Lost River Part 2

Lost River is a sick race. We give props for anybody who simply pinned a number on. That being said, we have a job to do.

We can always count of good ol Sigberto to supply us with some fodder. Hell, he just calls it like he sees it. No filter on his blog. Why should his photo essay be any different. Here we go.

We are hoping you supply us with the video footage of the drop. That would be totally focused!!

This makes sense to me. If a cyclist is slower, then the ad will be seen for a longer amount of time. How much does this ad cost? 

The mullet. The chest hair. The grimace. We love you. 

Gonzo got Dropped. That is all. 

Nerd's POV - Recumbulators UNITE!!

Have you ever seen these guys trolling down the park or on the bike path and wondered to yourself "do these guys go home and stand up to watch TV?"

We don't know. But this guy took some super sick helmet cam footage of him getting stung by a bee while riding his bike...gangsta lean and all.

Let's analyze the video, shall we?

first 10 seconds we see the following: rear view mirror. riding on left side of path. states he's going 20-25 mph on this thing. EXTREME TRANCE JAN ULRICH TOM BOONEN COKE MUSIC!!

at 23 seconds holmes get stung by a bee and goes crashing into the brush.

The rest of the video is what we crave. SLOW MOTION EXTREME BEE STING REPLAY!!!

Lost River Part 1

OMG! We take off a few days of posting and we receive message after message reminding us of Giro droppage...Lost River droppage...and upcoming Page Valley droppage. We admit, we dropped the ball on this. In our own self defense there was a Golden Girls marathon on Lifestyle this weekend .

Lost River. Where to start? For the novice poster, this may seem like an easy race to call out droppage. But no! Racers are all over the course. In packs. Off the back in packs. Solo off the front. Solo off the back. In bushes. Hiding. Anarchy.

Before we get going on the droppage, we just want to state that Jose Escobar is a baaaad ass. He is dropping dudes like 1/2 a mile back and then grittin at the camera. All hail Jose. I'll take a salty oatmeal cookie while I watch you climb a mountain.

Is this dude seriously wearing compression socks?

You are about to get compressed into the DNF zone.

A blog by no other name.
Nick Versus Gravity is illustrated here.Check out the socks. We believe in the big fella.

What's blue and white and usually crashes in crits?

Easy find here. Moto ref = droppage
