Tour of Bronte Throw Down

Did my first actual "Race" of the year... annual Tour of Bronte road / gravel road race.... and man was it fun!!! nothing like sending off a group of 75 over excited Sr. 1/2 and M1 riders on their new bikes with their new wheels for 100km on paved (with pot holes) and dirt roads.... we had more than enough reason to lay it down and ride to impress.... had a great ride, legs felt great, had tons of fun and even won some cash!!!! i'll be back... fo' sho!!! yes... Adam Morka spent a lot of time at the front... i heard someone say "Why doesn't Adam get in a break? is he just looking for a hard work-out?".... i was very un-appreciative of his Time Trialing abilities.... look WAY back in the picture... you'll see me suffering....
my choice of 'cross bike with road tires made me smile every time i heard a rock bounce off carbon frames or deep dish wheels.... took a bouncing rock in the shin resulting in a hole in my shin.... have you checked your new carbon frame?
yes... i had to work hard to get up with Adam to pose for this picture... and then faded back again knowing that i hit the Trek Canada Team Promo Pic...
