Last week, in addition to the blood-shot eyes and awful cough, I also brought home a tick on my right leg. Floyd: The gift that keeps on giving.
i will race in scuba gear.

How do you know you brought it home and not there?

Time to shave those hairy tree-stumps dude.

Word up - tick checks are a snap when you're not combing through a swarthy jungle.  Take it from this guy.
Sadly, I don't think I will be racing today. :( still recovering from being sick, and hearing the weather conditions at Floyd plus the thought of ticks coming home with me isn't helping. My first Cat 4 race will have to be postponed, unless my adrenaline kicks in and tells me to man up.
Today, between the hours between 5pm and 9pm
  • Do you have work?
  • Do you have school?
  • Do you have family obligations?
  • Do you have an injury preventing you from riding the snot out of your bicycle?

No?  Then...

  • Do you have a working bicycle?
  • Are you excited to finally race as a Cat4?
  • Do you want to regale us with tales of heroism and wily tactics?
  • Have you shaved your legs?
Yes? Then...
  • You must race
  • You must kick ass
  • You must take videos and share it with the club
  • You must join the crew at Hotbird afterward and regale us with tales of heroism and wily tactics
good day to test the cat 4 waters.  emphasis on waters.
i will race in scuba gear.
@Brendan, indeed! go race it WILL be beautiful...h:-)
see u there&after @hotBird
if this is on, I am out there to throw my body at the watery mess that is FBF.
i will proceed gingerly tonight. to go from 5 to 4 you must finish 10 races. tonight is #10.  BE KIND TO ME, OH GODS OF FBF
I'm gonna try to come out tonight as well if this is on.
It looks mighty dark in Astoria right now. Hopefully the dark clouds passes before Floyd.
For the night is dark, and full of terrors.  #FBFisComing
@Brendan Rigby

I think you're confusing the old gods and the Lord of Light.

(@Aaron, thanks for being a good sport.  Totally no disrespect, broski.  Originally started off with just the kitten, but then I saw the awesome photo of you charging up the hill on the kissena flickr page and it just fit perfectly.)
Brendan aka "High Viz Vector" for the win tonight.  Get it done - don't be afraid to get your fur wet!
Vector, Victor.

"Tonight's race is on. I am at the course and it clear to race on. Please share this post to spread the word.

Charlie Issendorf
Race Director"

oh charlie...be careful what you wish for!  i will now scream "the race is on!" into a bullhorn for the entire ten mile commute to FBF

jules: i cannot promise you a result, but i can promise you i will sprint for the actual finish line rather than my imaginary finish line
