get happy with bike racing
lil Lucas E is off the front with that solo-artist McCartney.
Disco is really tryin' to put the hurt on Phonak today. Torrential rains and Floyd's boys are gonna have to be out front the whole race.
le ouch.
This could be a huge day for Lucas, though.
... stupid work in the way again.

ventoso, lucas, n' mcCartney out in front by over 4 minutes. Poor Ollerenshaw in the middle.
Ben's got Dietrich in the rest of the break ... but they'll be swallowed up soon by Floyd's grinding machine.
gotta like how Disco is playing this, though.
mcCartney is just a machine when it comes to riding off the front in a bike race.
i hope Vaughters is tellin' Lucas to only go to the front when the camera is on them.
that's some tough mo'fo racin' for a kid who weighs a buck-ten.
ventoso is old-school ... he can hammer the miles.
cool race. wish there was video of it.
i think last year there was something like 20 or 30 guys who made the final selection. Good day for GoBenGo to get another top-5.
Freddie might make it over, but no other huge sprinters. Not with popovych throwin' down like you know he will be to step on the throat of Phonak.
final k's of this thing are gonna be brutal.
follow wheels, bennyJ. Follow them wheels, baby.
getsum.

McCartney and Ventoso are doing the majority of the work now. Euser is pulling through but not as often and for not as long. This is quite sensible considering the company he keeps. Its a great experience for him.
somebody heard the word.
I thought you said work was getting in the way
no travel policy for you
and your consultants are being ignored, i see.
it's friday dammit.
let's party.

if bennyJ can make it over that climb with the leaders - he'll be in a sweet spot to launch an attack late - those final k's are gonna be insano. let's hope.
the consultants are eating spinach dip and spring rolls
when do they go back home?
noon
then I am going for a nice long bike ride....
...err I mean sprints.
pre-race sprinteys.
yum.

looks like Phonak is going to be tempo'n enough to keep a big bunch together for the finish.
bummer.
looks like it will be a sprinter's day.
I wish you were here to do those sprinteys with me
I like chasing you...
jeesus. mccartney attacked again after getting caught.
oh yeah, baby.
- - -
is Ben in the front group?
down to 10km to the finish.
friggin' mcCartney got swallowed up, then attacked again with some Quick'er.
shyte. that's insano.
mcCartney was just in the right place at the right time. now he's just throwin' bravado.
that's cool.
come'on ben, be in that group, brudda.

Another rider is attacking from the peloton.
aararararrgggghhhh ... why can't i see this race.
me = geek
lunch ride blown ... because of racing lust.
shyte.
I'm blaming it on the rain anyway
another 6th for BJM.
That is another impressive result.
That podium is callin him...
damn that's knockin' on the door.
who's achin' to give that sum'bitch a leadout?
tomorrow is the day.
throwdown for a few, survival for most, epic for all ... and i'll miss the live coverage.
shyte!!
we could just sleep in and race vicariously....
and then do other stuff
you flirtin' with me?
every moment I can
spring is definitely in the air...
you should have had Chase drool all over it
