Yes yes y'all, to the beat y'all

 


The world keeps turning..babies are getting made, burgers are getting flipped folks are willing to hand over that stimulus bread without ever asking does it run?..and all the while some folks still standing around with jaws clenched and fist tight enough to crush diamonds..

If you made it here tonight welcome and thank you to another one of crazy ol Ts confusing and go nowhere ramble..Ts best thoughts often come around that time between low  twilight and full shinning..things of unknown from the future and shit that can not be changed or taken back from the past of Ts cranium spin like a worn out old Maytag until he arises..

So what I’m sayin is I gotta this one out before the sun rises...and I have to let that brain go back to it’s dingy coffin of reality..

What’s it’s all about? Strava challenges..Hill climbs..clocking 16 hours pedaling a bike with no wheels inside a place you see more than Ma nature herself. Silly confusing ride titles. Pinning numbers on argyle sweaters, riding bikes that weigh almost as much as that red 75 Chevy Chevette I used to own. Is it just for fun?.. In the former world of the scene, showing up to an event that had lousy pavement and folks wrapped up tighter in a 95$ piece of bright Lycra, and would be disqualified if you took your hands off a your 250$ bars, now it’s the norm to throw that thing is universally recognized as all things rad with your index and pinky fingers...


Your DQed..oh no im not you can cradle my nuts cuz this aint USAC..
oh what's USAC?

During this new format we are under you might think T is all twisting his hands and hatin..but he he ain’t..kinda refreshing in a silly sense. Sure maybe there stay gonna be a few five corner go the ER crits in the future, and maybe one fight for wheels for 3 hours in a much hated Michigan cross wind..but this new world of a Cone Azalia return with no numbers, no grip at the end no results and a length that have even the Evil Dude hatin his county more than life itself...The absence of USA cycling governing the gravel circus, a Willow TT, that has more folks wishing they didn’t dump there Aero bike for a 65 dollar  Air Fryer last May...


Super Dave is quite possibly rolling over in his grave..

oh he's not dead sorry....but he's probably still scratchin his head..

Surprisingly all the above has this old fool just tickled a tad ignorant..

It’s the beautiful future, one of the few things that might be more harder to predict than who the next podium finisher Base Media is gonna sign to the team sheet come Monday mornin..


They even got Scotty to throw down a Slayer.. but at much higher wattage level than you.




to the beat y'all

and dont stop

TRUE GRIT

 




  1. Scotty draws first blood
  2. Zwift involvement is bigger than ever despite the mild winter 
  3. Remember when 45 felt like 75
  4. Alex Tenslehof wins the the dirty 30
  5. ooops thats this weekend
  6. The trails will see an abundance of newbies in the weeks to come
  7. Like the ER folks need the OT
  8. That old bmx shit sure is worth a lot of money
  9. Ran when parked
  10. Wonder what the Wiz is doing this weekend
  11. Overheard...fuck that guy...
  12. The Promoters of the Willow TT are considering adding a 38c gravel class due the road conditions at the park
  13. Dirtiest part of your bike is your bar wrap...pity some folks only clean or change once a year 
  14. Screaming during a plane crash is a false belief made up by the movie industry 
  15. Quality over Quantity..

rhythm is a dancer



What makes the coffee soo special it Timmy Hortons taste dam good at 705 am?...why are the lines at every fast food place jammed bumper to bumper at 430...? What came first...the photographer at a gravel race? Or the funny costumes..and cheeky poses? 

Seems like the world is in a big hurry way to get back in the rat race..I dunno bout all you folks but ol T kinda like the quarantine feels from the past 12 months..got shit done he normally wouldn’t get done...didn’t have any much money..but hey what’s new? I guess that’s folks dna...don’t stop..can’t stop..all the while racing oneself into a retirement mode..all the while risking health..not just your body..but your grey matter..humans amaze me..all folks trying to keep themselves all fit..eat well.. get there zzzz and trying block in 2 hrs..all the while without ever even noticing there mind is going to shit...oh golly fuckin g ever bring that subject up to em cuz..you know mental illness isn’t really thing..cuz we as humans are more tougher than we..can control that shit..if I get my money, and I get my beer...I’m all good...burn one down..and clock off another two hours..I can wrest peacefully...only jump back into that another day...whew dam exhausting sports fans..but u know that already cuz humans are stronger than the brain..

Bah..

 you..you get your shot? I got mine..my old ass butt is more of a risk at gettin that shit than you young bucks..

Seems like the your world is sorta coming back into its semi normal life..Folks got a lil stimulus grip..Some it put the things needed back in to there life, and others got a chance to catch up on all what this wacky shit has set em back..

Whatta bout you? you got your normal rhythm on it? You ever wonder what it be look to be soo far out that rhythm..that you got yourself into another one..not quite like the first but close enough to be comfortable in it..

Big weekend coming...Dirty 30..you can bet the White Claw is gonna be flowing and the big money rollers are gonna bitin at the bit to swing the meat stick..but some folks already been doin that shit post real, and virtual..I aint hatin its a good thing..good for folks to feel like a whole again..rumor on the gravel is the Cone Azalia is makin a comeback come April..doubtful if Super Dave is connected in a way shape or form..but is spirit is there...Willow TT aint too far off to think bout...dam dawg..its almost as if the world is real again..

enough of this for now..you all are smart enough to stay safe..stay clean and stay grounded to what really makes you open doors for ladies, and talk nice bout your fellow man.


Peace Love and Latinos ladies
