Birkierunner - 2008-09-04 6:27 PM Can the moderators give the IM KY racers their own forum to play in? Excuse me while I go start new IM WI threads on the post-race weather, IM WI 2009, IM WI 2010, IM WI 2011, IM WI 2012, Should I do IM WI with no base? Should I do IM WI with a hangnail?, How much will IM WI 2009 cost?, etc.

IM WI 2009 will be $548.96.  And YES, Base and a hang nail are NOT required.

Can I race IM xxxx by not signing up while having a hangnail?

Wow, last week it was Rogillio's keyboard we needed to take  away as he was tapering for IMKY and going crazy, this week it is becoming obvious who is over the edge

Birkie had wireless difficulties at his hotel this morning.

Jim was looking slimmer with his trimmed 'stache.   I caught him at the beginning of the pros interview this morning.

Pseudoyams looked like a man on a mission.  Firstnet911 was relaxed and calm (well, of course, he was with AJ.  )  Rabkaman looked calm, but I think he was a little overwhelmed with all the hoopla.   Mutri was keeping it all together, but stated that he was "excited as a little schoolgirl"   (thank you, Tammy).  Misskelly introduced herself and I was quite excited to say more than "HI!" to her and wished her "Good luck".  Djdavey - well, what can I say about this guy other than he was giving me zingers constantly, but was doing quite well.

Tripletmom is with me and not feeling well.  I've got her at my house and trying to keep her rested, but she won't.  Tammy, go lay down already.   She did indicate that she met mndiver (Hi, Bryan), schmize (Hi, Scott), goalie?

Happy note - I get to sign up for IM MOO '09 on SATURDAY because I'm a registration volunteer!!!  WOOT!!!

This has been a blast to read!! Keep it going Jim but remember to get rest, stressing over a BT thread is definitely wasted energy!!

Good luck to everyone! I wish I was there doing it with you again this year! I look forward to the tracking thread!

Get some rest!!

Trust me...I haven't spent a second stressing over any threads   Giving crap to IM KY racers (in sarcasm red font for tongue in cheek mind you) is my BT form of relaxation.  I just had a nice cup of Ben and Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie and I'm ready to go.

Jim - the 'puter is calling you.  We need today's update.  WAZZZZZZZUPPPPPP???!!!

Well, everything is done and all the prep laid.  Got the bike to the rack (just after the 'overpass' on the left.  Pretty much right in the middle.  We got there a bit late and was only able to drop off our T1 bags.  No worries, the IronSherpa will be carrying my stuff. 

Had a good last ride and remembered just how bumpy the first mile or so of the road of the stick is.  It's all good. The body is feeling relaxed and we'll just have to see how things go tomorrow.

My T1 bag is about 30 lbs.  Cycling jersey, arm warmers, leg warmers, gloves, rain jacket, helmet shoes, and tons of random crap.  Good times. 

well I am sitting in the Hotel just waiting to go to bed.  Anyone else register for next year already.  To my wifes dismay I went through with it.  Good luck to everyone!
