Andrea and I traveled most of the way across the state of Tennessee on US-64 to Fayetteville to race the final weekend of the Beat the Freak series. We rolled into Fayetteville about 11am and stopped to eat lunch at Raphael’s Italian Restaurant. I had a pretty good chicken sandwich, but… I think …

#188a: Outdoors CX continued…
http://blog.roadcx.net/archives/827It looks like I made the paper again this year. Last time it was Oak Ridge, now it was the commercial Appeal (Memphis’ paper). As of when I linked this, the photo wasn’t working on the page, but I have been told it is Brent and I going over the triple logs on the finish straightaway. …

#188: Outdoors, Inc cross
http://blog.roadcx.net/archives/817Not much time to post up the whole race detail, but I ended up getting 3rd in the CX3 state championship race this morning in Memphis. Boomer was up in the lead group (with four CX1-2’s) and Barret finished about 30-40 seconds ahead of me. I felt pretty good, but just could not generate the power I needed today to catch Barret. …

Irregular Report 26
http://trustbut.blogspot.com/2008/09/irregular-report-26.htm...to take his "case" to the Swiss courts since he might not find satisfaction here. Let's wait for some real information before leaping to conclusions. Sports by Joe notes the return of "Crazy Floyd Landis". Nope, cycling is certainly NOT boring. Ryan met and socialized with Floyd Landis recently, but didn't say if he had enjoyed himself. How could you not? An emailer sent some pictures from last weekend's "Save a Limb" ride with Landis and Bob Roll.

http://blog.brickhouseracing.comm going to race a few cat 3 men’s races where trading pulls isn’t such a big deal and I can get my butt kicked even harder. For more photos of the w 1/2/3 crit and the men’s cat 3 and 4 races, you can go to Ryan’s blog photo gallery. He’s also posted his own race report… Preview: I was jumping up & down screaming and nearly causing a scene during his crit… I’m rather proud of him

Irregular Report 22
http://trustbut.blogspot.com/2008/09/irregular-report-22.htm...Floyd Landis, "podium boy". Roadcx also rode in the Pepper Place events with frustrating results, and a fun ride with Landis got canceled. Crux Cycling did catch onto one of Landis' group rides, and thought his pedaling was effortless. It usually is, when riding with regular humans at

Adventures on bicycles
http://kmwentworth.blogspot.comI ended up 36th. I was just happy to avoid the couple of crashes and finish off the season safe. The racing was top notch though and I had a lot of fun. Brooke Miller is on fire lately and took her second Nationals jersey in two weeks. Thanks Ryan for the photo! I've learned the past few years that by this time in the season I'm not feeling especially peppy in the races and am ready to transition into getting ready for cyclocross. I really enjoy doing the August crits in the area but I can feel myself getting a littl

Today’s Headline:
http://blog.brickhouseracing.com/archives/287t expect to be kicking a ton of ass at the end of a couple of pretty tough weeks of training, but it doesn’t make poor racing strategy any easier to swallow. However, a 24oz Fat Tire at Mellow Mushroom does help a little Ryan raced a couple of hours later with several of his teammates. They were all pretty tired from their 60 mile race the previous day, and a 3-man break (not including any of the Memphis Velo guys) stayed away, leaving Ryan in the pack to sprint (though he
