Our journey begins with TB and his trusty sidekick, Greyhound, cranking along in the middle of a 50-mile training ride...let's listen:<BR/><BR/>Greyhound: Holy super-fast wheels Taconite Boy, those sure are awesome! Where'd you get those?<BR/><BR/>Taconite Boy: Shhhh - you know Trimama has super sensitive hearing and even 23.9 miles from the house, there's a good chance she heard you.<BR/><BR/>Greyhound: Woah, TB, you mean those are HER super-spendacoulous increadibly fast almost Zipp wheels? Are you crazy?<BR/><BR/>Taconite Boy: I'm not crazy, I'm TACONITE BOY! Hey, what's that?<BR/><BR/>Speeding up from behind, a lone driver in a mini-van swerves nearly out of control in an effort to catch the dynamic duo. In seconds, the mini-van overtakes the pair...<BR/><BR/>Trimama: What in the H.E. Double Hockey Sticks do you think you're doing? Are you nuts?<BR/><BR/>Taconite Boy: I'm not nuts, I'm TACONITE BOY!<BR/><BR/>Trimama: Boy, if I ever catch you riding my wheels again, that will be last thing of mine you EVER ride again, you got me?<BR/><BR/>Taconite Boy: Yes, dear...<BR/><BR/>Trimama: One scratch, one dent...those puppies better look like they just came off the factory floor! <BR/><BR/>Trimama speeds off in blaze of front-wheel drive madness, in fact, if it were not for Taconite Boys superhuman reflexes and keen vision, he would have surely crashed into the fury that was Trimama's mini-van.<BR/><BR/>Greyhound: TB, you're screwed.<BR/><BR/>Taconite Boy: I'm not screwed, I'm TACONITE BOY!<BR/><BR/>Greyhound: Truer words were never spoken...Bigunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05101189927170393085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34761181.post-59697849011552678052007-04-10T08:35:00.000-07:002007-04-10T08:35:00.000-07:00F. for cyclocross(explains why i am single)i'd use...F. for cyclocross<BR/><BR/>(explains why i am single)<BR/><BR/>i'd use them every day and 'train like you race'...Bolderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11468747570730558685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34761181.post-25836339072670739042007-04-10T06:06:00.000-07:002007-04-10T06:06:00.000-07:00Tubulars or clinchers?I'd be afraid of flatting on...Tubulars or clinchers?<BR/><BR/>I'd be afraid of flatting on a tubular by training on it, so would probably save it for race day only.
