The Definitive Timberman/BT Thread

I'll plan on at least stopping by at B. Mae's.  Not sure how many of my crew I'll drag bring with me.

I'm arriving Thurs., so if anyone else is up there early I'll be trying to ride the run course and part of the bike course.

And for those sticking around Sunday, my whole family plans on attending the Gunstock TimberParty.  "9 Lobsters, please!"

Look forward to meeting as many BTers as possible!

Oh, thanks to Rob & Mark for organizing!

We'll be there too, afterall that's where the beer is!!! 

I went 1 steak, 1 lobster - I'm hoping the kids will be happy w/ hotdogs

I'll get up there Friday AM, maybe we can do a swim ro semething ;)

BTW, where is the official Timberman BT smack down? Rob told me something about how JohnnyKay and Mark where no match  for him with his new aero wheels... (ok I just made that up! ;))

I believe it! Rob is trying to lull me to sleep, something about LP being his focus and suddenly TM is his B race.  Oh, and he also wanted to me to pre-ride the entire course w/ him on saturday. No smacktalk but he's definately got a hidden agenda

As to Johnny, I've seen first hand those "rollers" he trains on. It'll be fun watching him and Rob battle it out. That's o.k. w/ me best time buys the beer on Sunday! 

I'm there.  The recovery is coming along just fine so I'm racing the full HIM...none of that aqua-bike sissy crap.  I've got a condo on the lake Fri-Sun and have a motley group of friends and random girls staying the weekend.  I should be getting to town Friday afternoon.  Not sure about what my plans are but I'd definitely like to stop by the party Saturday afternoon at the least.

So, who's going to start the smack talk about the race?  I've never raced T-man before so I'm not sure what to expect but I've got 3 more weeks to crush my training plan and see what it gets me. 

Fabulous planning, and all done by...men?!  I'm in shock!  WondeRful!!

Expect to see me there with a few tall, handsome dudes who will also be racing on the course with us all on Sunday. 

Not able to be there d/t family plans but don't let Rob kid you.  I have no shame.  A smackdown is a smackdown and if Rob feels compelled to use the "I did Timberman a week ago excuse" while licking his wounds then so be it.  

Sounds like I'm missing out on another fun event.    

Works for me too!  'Course I'm not to worried with Jorge and Joel there. I figure I'll have to build at least a 20min lead on Joel by the run to have an even shot at him.  And I don't think his bike and swim are near that slow.  As for Jorge, I expect he'll be working at the aid stations by the time I get close to the second loop on the run.   

Tall & handsome works for my wife, I prefer the slow type

Licking my wounds??? I think it's going to be more like, "Damn, I did my 1st 1/2 a week ago and STILL threw it down on you!" Now I just need to figure out how I'm going to do it... Oh, and I'm really looking forward to that free beer, Jorge!

What about the slowest transition time pays for the beer after the race?

Enough!!!

I am going to SMOKE Jorge (at  a tri in NJ on Sat where he's not racing) so bad, it'll be like he never started!!!
