First Words


first words:
its a stretch that some of you may recall your first words..although i do often..even i have to go deep into the grey matter for that one..so don't feel bad...i aint gonna use that word..the reason i bring this up as with soo many things there always has to be a first..which leads me to this early a.m. rant .....i ask myself...can i do this again...could mean many things to anyone who cares to stumble through the poor grammar that has made t so well..someone close once said..you can start whenever you want..but once you stop...that's a different story..maybe 90% have already started..maybe .01% haven't stopped.....but to me and you it shouldn't matter 2 bits what other fools do..be your own fool..i know what your saying...just what in the hell is T babbling bout now..maybe some of you probably think you know..."the 2013 plan"?...
To be flat faced honest i aint worried about your plan, your teammates plan.. or any other blogger, tumblr, stumbler and status updater and i dont have to tell i aint no fake suicide man and it will be a cold day when I play the that strava game......im focused on the plan at hand here at TMS..and once again under all do circumstances im in for 2013..i aint gonna say its gonna TMS's best season to date,, nor i will say im gonna up the numbers..meet this goal or that.. and as much as i like toys  and  the marketing side of life don't expect no plastic trinket for your birthday or deliciously flavored fake ass sweetened trendy micro brew....the way T see's it don't expect shit and you will be all the jazzed if it arrives in one piece... with a little help from Friends TMS will try to control it and refrain as humanly possible from feeding you the same wind trainer induced porridge some of you have come so accustomed to....

so in cliche sorta way...
im ready to roll like the first time...lets do this..

Stander killed in training accident

Former world champion dies after in collision with vehicle

Burry Stander was killed in a training accident in South Africa on Thursday, January 3. The cross country mountain bike racer was hit by a taxi while riding.

"It is with great sadness and utter shock that Cycling South Africa confirms the tragic death today of our champion mountain bike rider, Burry Stander," read a statement from the cycling federation late Thursday. "Burry was out on a training ride when he was hit by a motor vehicle in Shelly Beach on the KwaZulu-Natal South Coast. Details of the accident are still being investigated."

One of the top racers on the World Cup circuit, Stander had climbed his way up the ranks, riding in recent years with Specialized Racing. He won the U23 cross country world championship in 2009.

More recently, in 2012, he finished fifth at the London Olympic Games and won the Windham World Cup. He capped off the season with a win at the Singlespeed World Championships in South Africa.

In 2012, he was also married to pro cyclist Cherise Stander, who recently switched from the road to mountain bike racing.

"Burry, who was the most successful mountain bike cyclist the country has ever seen, and whose promising career has been abruptly cut short, was a true icon and sporting role model," read the Cycling South Africa statement. "Not only is this a loss to South African sport, but we have lost a true gentleman who through his professionalism, modesty and humility, constantly showing sheer guts, represented our country with great pride."

In 2011 Stander made history by becoming the first ever South African winner of the Cape Epic mountain bike stage race. Since his Cape Epic debut in 2008, Stander entered the event six times, won 20 stages with teammate Christoph Sauser and walked away with overall honours twice.

Cape Epic founder, Kevin Vermaak said, “This is the saddest news I’ve received since I began my involvement in South African cycling 10 years ago. Burry was our brightest star. I’m upset that the world has been deprived of a true legend in the making. Now we’ll never know just how great he was destined to be. My thoughts are with his wife Cherise and his family, who have always been his biggest supporters.”

David Hyam of the Specialized Racing team said, "It is with great sadness that we bid farewell to our friend and cycling legend Burry, who was tragically snatched away in the prime of his life while training in his home town of Kwazulu-Natal this afternoon. We have lost not only a friend, colleague and teammate, but a true sportsman. He will long be remembered for his humility, his prowess and the gentle manner in which he conducted his life!"

The news comes less than a month after another pro mountain biker, Inaki Lejaretta, was also killed in a training accident in Spain.

More information will be posted as it become available.

Cyclingnews offers its condolences to the friends and family of Stander and his Specialized Racing teammates.

We are in a sport where we can all die just doing it. I wish that those who had their secret online vendettas would take a step back and realize that their gripes are petty in the face of reality. This is serious stuff. Conducting ones-self in a more civil manner goes a lot further and accomplishes more than anon bashing. It's probably wishful thinking, though.

3:34 PM - Seems to me that you should quit since you think the sport or hobby is petty. Trust me, nobody will miss you and your 'mobey'.

Isn't commenting anon kind of petty?

Not sure about that, but someone got hardcore trolled.

Accusing somebody of being raised in Birmingham is hardcore trolling? So growing up in an area where the average income exceeds nearly all regions of the entire US and most third World countries GDP is a slam? Once again, get over yourself and get back to serving that customer his burger and coke.
