I am still being amazed by our Suzy. Your run time was 5th in your division and 559th overall. Way to go squirt.

Kim - keeping my fingers crossed!  Hard to believe that IM or Active.com or WTC....or whoever is behind the glitch... can't get it right.  Signing up should be the easy part!

Bike porn:

So here is the new (to me) bike.  I got it a couple weeks ago, and had it fitted between then and now.  Bike fitter was great - and probably the best couple hundred dollars (including re-running the cables, retaping the bars, etc.) that I have spent on this sport.  And, although I love my Trek Madone which i have ridden for the past couple years, I am totally smitten with this thing.  So smooth.









As i mentioned in my RR, I rode it in the Nation's Tri, and averaged 22.1 mph.  I know that I violated the cardinal rule of "no changes on or just before race day" but I could not help myself.

Beautiful, sleek looking bike, William!  22.4 is a pretty nice bike split pace! 

Thanks everyone, keep up the positive vibes!  There is still hope for me!  The website is now saying they will announce a date/time for re-opening registration.  Where do you think the fastest computers in San Francisco might be???

Oh man... that is a SWEET looking bike! Love the little red accents: rear derailleur cable housing, brake pad holders, barrel adjusters on the brakes, etc. Now, I like white bar tape, but boy does it go gray fast! But when it's new, it looks great.

Beautiful ride!

For all the racers, I'm working my way through your RRs... lovely work all of you! Congratulations!

Gorgeous ride!! I, too, was loving the red accents, especially the cables!! Awesome! Maybe when the white tape goes gray, you can get red!! Oooh, just noticed the red tires too. Awesome! But more than pretty colors, it sounds like it fits you like a glove and you churned out a smokin' fast bike split!!
 
And yeah, I'd ride the new bike on race day too, if I had been you!

William, that is a very cool bike.  It looks and is fast, nice combo.  Great split and I'm sure you'll have many more with that bike.

Good luck with the registration.  Maybe go to Stanford, I'm sure those brainiacs  have a super computer up there or someone there can probably "figure out" a way to get you registered.

Ok gang - I did a race report.  Link

And thank you all for your kind and inspiring words.  This group is truly amazing. 

I am feeling much better and ready for the next challenge.

PS - you are only allowed to leave funny comments or swimming tips in my RR.  No more pity parties.  Wink

every once in a while i'll get a comment (usually a LOL, type comment) from someone not in the group about a post someone put up.  the funniest (maybe weirdest) was a few months back... i forget which one of us it was but someone had a race coming up and her foot was hurt.  i remember it was on of the girls.  so i'm standing around after one of my races and this girl comes up and ask's how the foot was, she'd read about on the mg.

What's the deal with me and snakes?!?!?   This time there is a 4 foot long black snake crossing the path on mile 11.3 of my 12 mile run.  And wouldn't you know it, I see the cutest pair of fawns as I am driving out of the park.  Why couldn't those animals have switched places?

I'm coming back to Seattle where it is too cold for all these snakes and bugs.

While no where in the same league as Williams porn I picked up a new bike last night.

LOL fits with my Frankenbike theme, but not bad for $200.00 for a whole bike.

I think the cranks and RD are from when Doug raced... (you know when everything was in black and white because they hadn't invented color yet...)

No Tony it is not OLD enough! When I raced the big inovation was triangular wheels! They had one less bump than the square ones!
