State of Fate

 

Goood goly what’s uuup?

Been some short time since there was even a muttering around this dead corner about anything remotely relevant to its former self. 

Since I thoroughly know some of you are slow to roll and don’t always get The T like drift...

The State of the State.

Old timers will say, it’s not there world anymore 

Dinosaurs in between stressing over what color bar tape will perfectly match there shoes, will scoff grumble and spend an countless hours surveying there lawn..

Haters will shy away and just stick closely to there zip code and quietly gripe to those few riding folk that still follow the same path..

And some simply don’t give two boogers about anything because there medication hasn’t been addressed since before the pandemic...

But fools when they cliche say..,

The more things change...the more they stay the same...

Sitting on the edge of spring! 

What could be more silly and fun than that?

Cept maybe the first official run on gravel coming up this weekend over in far west corner of the state.

Cuz Man if you gotta travel outta of state to get your fix, your doing wrong...

Melting Man looks to getting blessed with some acceptable weather, and will have folks biting at the bit, for the Barry Roubaix in just short time,

I should not have to tell the Barry folks have made big adjustments to the event and have heed the call of the people. Huge props to all involved...and since gravel is the still growing and shows no signs of slowing...events are popping up on the calendar quicker than new tread patterns. Hopefully this doesn’t water down the soup too much, but unfortunately it probably will..

If your a Mountain biker, the scene stays healthy and on track with a normal string of events, and with the added trail network expansion, Even the  Lycra team kit wearing steely eyed pricks can find a place to avoid the human flannel gangs..

Roadies, yes you too can enjoy a brief glimpse of your Former world, seems putting on crits, and hanging around farm roads corner marshaling 150 riders or so is a tad more taxing and a smidge more expensive than letting 2000 or more smiling happy people loose on remote rural tractor paths. But don’t marketplace that rim brake bike yet, the AAVC has almost two months worth of racing on the new revised spring industrial park crit, your weekday fix can get its gains if you want to drive, to Waterford, or Gratten speedway. Hopefully by the time this starts gas prices will level out...and make it a tad less painful.

And what’s up that CX schedule...oh yeah sure it’s way out there on the horizon, but incase some of you haven’t noticed it’s gotten the complete rebuild, the Walt Kowalskis of the Miscene CX would never ever ever think of doing it the way they gonna do it...but the old way wasn’t getting anyone farther up on the call up cues....but that shits months away and the whole gosh darn world could be one big mud puddle by then...

There you have it all your weekends for the next 9 months are completely tied up and allotted for.

And you once again thought there was nothing even remotely interesting going on. 

Silly fools...
