I can't stop thinking about that, you crazy FIB! Thanks Fill. I was surprised by a few things. First of all, I didn't think it was as hard as it was in my mind pre-race. Second, I didn't feel the absolute elation at the end like I thought I would. I'd imagined it a million times, that maybe I'd get all emotional and stuff, which is very unlike me, but all I did was give a shout out to mom and then raised my arms in victory. And then it was over. |

At Longhorn the other week when I went to claim my bike, I had ripped the bike sticker off during the race cause it was rubbing on my thighs. Since my bike didn't have a sticker it took them a long time to decide if they would give me the bike, even when I had my bib on, my wristband, and all my gear bags - all numbered with the same number. They ended up taking my bib and wristband away from me so I couldn't come back in for another bike. |

They ended up taking my bib and wristband away from me so I couldn't come back in for another bike. They have a pretty good check system. After they let me in transition, they walked me to where his stuff was. Watched me just get the bags with his number on them that matched the ticket I had that HE had to give me that came with HIS packet of stuff. Then they checked that I only had his bags again when I left transition. And with the bike .. they didn't let me in but they brought it to me after showing the ticket and my ID. Last year at IMAZ I was with hanging out with JeepFleeb when he picked up his junk HAHAHAHHAHAHA!!! *tears rolling down face* and they didn't let me into the transition area because I didn't have a ticket. I think it's a good idea to be able to let someone else collect your things and put them in the car. That way when you are done racing you don't have to deal with all that crap. You can just enjoy hanging out and getting some food then head to the car. I wish I would have known that. I didn't have really anyone around and got all of my belongings both times. It was really lonely and tiring. You are good Sherpas! |
