TAO OF T

I gotta speak briefly and thank the ANON'er who came to prop me and the scene, thanks. but when its all said and done, its OK IF aint no one speakin up or droppin there 2 cents in here. Its all good. Maybe everyone is too busy churning it out, spendin time with the Kenmore and the water heater, or maybe there some place warm puttin the miles in. Its cool, the Flat screen needs yo love too, Atlanta's Football Holly and her weekends big game is on the horizon if that yo gig. Facebookin whatevr...Its all good.
I know the writing here at TMS is anything less than grade scale level, I aint foolin myself..and the topics are vague, and some times people miss what im trying to lay down, and ya all think IM STIRRING the pot, Images not on everyone's radar, or value level. But the bottom line is I dont get paid to do this shit, I do it because i want to, TMS aint fillin my barbers bank roll, I aint buyin Zipp wheels, and the pimp new power gadget or taking my friends out with the fast cash.i do it on my own time. You can be haters all you want, Its alot easier to hate someone than respect them. T knows at the end of everyone's day we are who we are, nothing more nothing less. I aint kidding myself either, and I hope to god you all aint either, its simply riding a bike for fun and enjoyment. entertainment per say, soul searching for some. Its who you are, dont take that shit too serious, you can live it, but you cant LIVE it, you can think about it all day, but you CANT think about it all day, and lord knows you cant take it with you when the grizzly end comes. Its all good to get a little angst, fired up.. it keeps the system rolling strong and smooth but Be cool to people, Love it or hate it embrace it, or push it away. look back through the years of TMS, your all part of it. believe it... many of you have come and gone, some are old and some are new, you cant stop time, all you can do is be the best part of it.. keep that stuff in mind as you take things for granted ( its OK we all do its human nature)

you never know what you had until its gone.

RESPECT and BE COOL..

Take a look around you fools aint non of us got more time on our hands, nor are we showering in the fountain of youth. Get your plan in line and your discipline down.

Thanks.

Well a hardy hello lost sceners, Its the holidays and TMS has been kind crazy lately, with all the celebrations and food, and gift giving I think alot of us have forgot what The season is all about. me and T thought it would be a good time for us to tell our fellow sceners what we here at TMS are really thankfull for on the The inside. We spend soo much of our season ranting and raving about this and that, and we never seem to have the proper time to tell everyone and everything who comes here like it really is, its the events, words, places and people who keep the fire alive deep inside TMS. All of them shape TMS in a way most dont realize . The Limbo of the midweek, holiday wrap is a good time to lay down from both sides of our world. So for TMS, Me, T and the ill fallen Glenn D, here goes it..In no particular order,our thoughts and thanks.

Christmas Gift Ideas








We all know it, we just dont want to admit it, Christmas is for kids, yea sure, some of us want Powermeters, and Carbon wheels and that full Jacked up Asso's winter coat for all those LSD rides down to Starbucks. But you know Christmas is kids stuff, and since we are all kids at heart, and we remember the days of toys under the tree, and stocking filled to the brim with down home good joy long after the thought of measuring silly wattage numbers is fleeting history. Here is some cool stuff TMS thought you might like, all are unique in there own way, and not available in all areas so it may take few trips to the Dollar General throughout the Tri county area, besides the cost of gas is alot less expensive than a SRM or the 2011 Zipp 404's.

On Day Last summer

The Henry and Glenn Show.

Henry: Thats a wrap, a saying that gets thrown around more than T throws his Atlanta friends around. But to you it means nothing, other than a wrap on 2010 cross scene. Last weekend marked what many are saying is a changing of the guard at least on the Tailwind front. If your new to the scene you may not get it. But 50% that still line up at Tailwind cross may know what that is referred to as.
For the past 10+ yrs we have seen basicly the same faces and names at the front of Elite group, Guys like The LIL pony, The BlackACE, TOOWHITE, the EVILDUDE, The UnderDog and the Dominate WIZ, were and all are what has been refered to as the OLD guard of Michigan cross why? They either have won multiple or have been taking to the line of Tailwind cyclocross state championship events since its conception most have been the mainstay of winners weekend week out. Mind you many have moved on, retired or still compete here. But what has happened this year is the influx of Hungry new faces and multiple winners. Never has the series scene this. It can mean only one thing the winds of change have given into the new breed. Now with Robert steppin down a notch it could better for the series.
Guys Like the 2010 state champion,Chicken PARM, Mustang II, Vinny and even the The ROADKING have stepped up for a piece that was basically unobtainable due to the dominance of the established veterans. Its refreshing and it may bring new life to a series that has grown stale. Whats your Take Glenn?
Glenn: Henry, I have to agree with you, we saw interesting action this year and I only think its only a view of things to come. I dont think you have scene the last of the OG's but the mix will get more stirred up. That goes the same for the Women s Elite, Queen Anne has held the thrown for more yrs than I think most can even remember. mmmMMarne has worked hard and has earned a Tailwind crown. And I shouldn't leave out all the new faces near the front of some of the other classes.
Henry: Well Glenn, I agree all across the board, Changed seem to be going on all across the map, new Venue which is rare for a Tailwind series, and the possibilty of maybe more, If they work in accordingly with the USA cycling s calendar that would add 2 more weeks before the annual holidays. maybe 2 more races?
Glenn: Well that will remain to be scene.
Henry: My only closing thoughts are, quite simple the sport is hard, everyone seems to do it for there own reason's Im looking forward in the distant future at a new series with fresh new venues and continuation of new faces at the front.
Glenn: I fulyl agree on all counts, But would never count out the OG's, and always remember where you came from.
from Both Henry and I thanks Robert from Tailwind and all of TMS.
see you soon.

11th hr


You thought i wasn't comin back huh sucka's? You think Ol Hank locked my butt out right? Well guess again fools The Lights are back on In T's Basement, and i got keys to the backdoor of this bitch. So you best sit down hold on, cuz im gonna hammer out some of my opinions on this shit, aint no side steppin, or small talk here.
First off I dont like Punk rock, and i aint scared of That evil dude.... Danzig, I know the real EVILDUDE, and speaking of the EVILDUDE, where you at fool? what a way to disrespect a title cant even come back and try to regain it, I dont like that shit... Hell i cut you some slack last year. PHHhhh..
Hey Wiz Hey!
you gotta alota T's repect you make me proud!!! enjoy what you have, cuz father time waits for no one, ask the Black Ace and The LIL PONY.. that shit hurts. speaking of the pony get a new, plan stop talking and do it.. put down the Fruity Pebbles and soft drinks i know its in you... oh and you The Black Ace this aint O-H-I-O 3 words for you...LOCKED AND LOADED .. YO "Parma Chicken" YO!! I hear you dont like your nic name thats tuff fool, its what you got, aint nothing wrong with it, Hell look at CREED, that mans got more nic names than I got friends in Atlanta. he still was a champion, enjoy it. LIL TIMMY, go back to doin child care, because boxing isnt yo gig. Moncel step up or step off, stop sniffin and leavin, and... and ..Burke..get ready for some mud.. Verran..VERRAN, B's was fun huh? LIL Vinny i like you alot you could be good real good, but its gonna take commitment..JB BABY JB dont you pull out that single speed sucka, make that plan work for you were talkin about back in the spring.
masters you aint all that..Its bad when a Beer drinking mountainbiker takes what you have away, and Simon get off those dam flat bars you look dumb silly, Osgood wearing Yellow shoe's aint gonna make you Timmy J get on back to OZ fool. dam OLD GOOCH pull that shit outta autopilot get your butt on a box , make yo kid proud. Stack you aint gonna dodge me either, you aint safe ride with your heart. JMAK welcome back, time to get real again.
45+ DC i cant say much but you got balls if you dont win you need to turn your Island lake park pass, pure and simple...Hey Mike Seaman, stop goin through the motions, its not just another excuse to ride yo bike, ride it like you stole it for a change. Baroli your powerless, get some watts or go see Neal, dam ridiculous. Steve B, come on, put some effort into it. I love you, but its gettin outta hand now. Rhino Mark...i know you have been called ageless, but lets not go winless. pull one out. JoeB tell Father time to take hike.
Ladies, Queen Anne if you dont get what you want, your always welcome over my place, of course after my friends from Atlanta go home, No matter what woman, your still held High in T's standard. Lil Marne, its gonna take work, and watch those bridges.
C-humps, its more than fun, and it aint all about the Beer save some for others, dont beer stingy and never drink too much. another thing the Beards are gettin silly. Grizzly Adams reruns haven't been aired in years.
B , the question isnt who will or wont, its who will bail down from masters 35+. keep in mind 45 min is sure alot more FUN than 1 hr.
hey LIL Gooch if you readin this you need to stop, its too rank for your virgin ears, this is your last year you get it for free, by the time the sun rises on a next miscene cross you'll be shavin and pop will have had a talk with you.
for all you hangin around talkin cross, stop the jibber jabber grab yo bike get in the game, yea im talk in to you Massey, lookin like a MTB star doesn't make you credible.. honesty does. Be cool fool this aint hollywood, and give Kabush his facial hair back. Robert put those loyal's to good use.. turn your results in, and give something back to those that are supporting you, maybe you need a secretary or something, but don't put all that shit on the LIL LADY.
I came i saw and I dropped my science, some of you are gonna be upset.
but haters are gonna be haters none the less.
because we all know there is no tomorrow.

TIME TO SHINE


Anon: The final resting point for 2010 tailwind all for something cross season. Why for something and not for anything? Well because from what i hear the race promoter doesn't turn his races in to USA cycling so all the guys and gals earning "upgrade" points never get them calculated not like USA cycling gives a shit but all the same your money and license grip should go to something other than the fuel for that gas guzzling motor home and some stale 90's CD's.
The Final' My predictions? does it matter probably not. But ill voice em anyway.. just like my bunghole im sure you have yours, but normally keep your mouth shut due to repercussions. well we all know this, is TMS and its based on a bunch of opinionated jerks hiding behind false faces.
The Elite Men if the WIZ shows its his game, chicken PARMALEE may be the series winner but, the Wiz is still the favorite, IF he makes the day. The LIL PONY will surprise everyone, but me..how about Burke, Vinny, Saari, The ACE, , Verran, Moncel... ETC....also rans. after Wednesday no one will remember who placed where other than the top spot. so be it.
Elite women..queen Anne will find here hands full, As Marne will reign supreme. nothing more nothing less, I love you Anne but time is a bitch.
Masters 35+ Joe B 2008 masters state champion, he has won once and will do it again. everyone else will be fighting for scraps, hear that Osgood, Goocher, Bailey, Stack, Bowser...
Masters 45+ DC if you dont win. It will be total disappointment among the Army, for all the beating you took on here, you deserve a state title for what its worth.
C field..fear the Beards.
B race? Its like transition it is anyones race.
Juniors, The lil Gooch kid will once again race by himself, and win uncontested.

The Day will end with cake and conversation that could be taped from last season.. would a should a could didn't do.
so long for another year.

The Henry and Glenn Show.


Good morning once again were back for day two of the Henry and Glenn show. Initially we were going to just hit you with a few of our opinions then after a flood of emails and just out right cries for more we decided to come back at you again. so sit back and listen to what a few more are going to lay on you.
Henry: So Glenn what do you think? you interested and keeping this going periodically?
Glenn: i could see it becoming something we could do time to time.
Henry: Sounds good, Too bad we are at the end of the cross season huh?
Glenn: I don't care, maybe we can be opinionated about other stuff.
Henry: well Glenn, as long as its Miscne related.
Henry: well lets see .
Glenn: who or is anyone on tap for to today?
Henry: Im sure Glenn i haven't check the list lets wait and see.

TIME TO SHINE

Henry: Well well. Here we are again. Seems like I just popped onto your little Scene just yesterday. This place is a little too tame for me. Maybe my friend Iggy will come in here to really fuck some shit up in the future. Why am I here? Its the Michigan State Championship 'Cross Race motherfuckers! I wish I could be there toeing the line, because I would Search and Destroy. But since I can't make it, let me run down the list of potential heroes. My heart wants to pick the only true punk rocker out there, but I think The Pony might be a little long in the tooth given some of these young studs challenging for the throne. It would also be great to see a classic battle with The Black Ace who is fresh off yet another Ohio State Championship (how many is that now anyway?). But that too will be too tall of an order. No, the real battle will come down to the two kids on the block, Mark Chicken Parmelee and Vinny Roberge. Mark has been consistent all season long only faltering in the sand at Stony. Vinny has shown improved strength over the last few weeks and would have won at Bloomer had it not been for that corner he got too squirrelly in. He's got the Belgian soil in his palmares and for that reason alone, I cannot pick against him. Good luck Vince, I'm putting my life savings on you.

ARE YOU READY?

Anonymous:
Well Hank, there's a reason you're an aging alternative icon. Emphasis on aging. What do you know about 'cross in Michigan? You named four great 'crossers, but you totally failed to recognize the two real contenders. This race will come down to an all out Argyle war of nice guys. Tom Burke v. The Wiz. Burke is so nice, he doesn't have a nickname. Might be the only guy nicer than Wiz. Burke is a horse on the road and if the conditions are right, it could play to his favor, but if Mother Nature decides to get finicky, could be a long day at the office. Wiz has a ton of 'cross experience on his side. Let's not forget he is the defending champion and has won multiple USGP races including the overall. Probably would have won Nationals too had he not started in row 200. A true bad ass on the bike who can show up when it counts. Whichever one of these guys gets the Eye of The Tiger will be the winner. It might be even money, but I got to with the experience on this one. Good luck Wiz.
In other races, The Bowser wins 35+, DC will continue to do his thing, but if he steps out of line even a little, we all have permission to pile on, Anne will come back to take what's hers, that Recycled guy will recycle a championship, and the power of the beard will best f the C men.

Cross Predictions


TMS: hey Mr Glenn Danzig, all around tough guy, Welcome back to another Michigan State Cyclocross championship, glad you could make it.

TMS: how about Tim Saari
Glenn: not a chance.. maybe next season.
TMS: how about the course? a run down?
Glenn: well first off the venues anything but great. The steps are gonna put some people in the Hospital before its all said and done. and I hope to Christ sake they don't start under that silly Big rubber tire, the cheesy guy sets up. Just plain stupid. And a gravel start? don't do it.
TMS: are you gonna be there?
Glenn: I might.
TMS: thanks
Glenn; yea...

Miscene celebrity grudge match

Its part of our sport here on TMS thats often over looked, not for any particular reason other than its not as deep as some of the other fields and in years past lacks the excitement. What is it? Womens elite. who cares right? We do, boring no way.. rest assured theres gonna be swinging goin on there. not that kind.. We like to think of it as a three way..no that either!! But more like WWF three way. battle for the cup "O" cross. Your Gonna have the figuratively speaking of course, The Old guard QUEEN ANNE. soo many titles and wins that its probably a TMS croscene record. Count her in with experience, mud, snow, sand, eating her way through the masters field..all of that may out weight the age gap that her competition will bring to the ring.
Next up mmmMarne although she has been crossin for awhile she still is somewhat new to all the things that make cross right. What she has going for her other than world cup style pig tails, is she is young most likely trains in the proper way and is hungry..never out weigh hunger.. 3rd girl in the pile if she show's MS Woodring from the "other" side. she brings many many yrs of solid road experience with her, and probably wattage nearly double of the other2. what she may lack is the technical and skill sharpness but she may make up with numbers. My proper money will be put on QUEENANNE. ill throw a long shot $100 spot on MS Woodring, and the 50/50 wager on mmmMARNE..
Experience-vs-hunger-vs-watts.

Miscene celeberty grudge match

Toe To Toe, head to head, chin to chin.. mono a mono. The Near Corner Tom the ROADKING Burke, far Corner Mark CHICKENParmalee. the Roadking comes in with experience, and strong knowledge of how a battle gets played, he has the watts, and brains and the over all capabilities. ChickenParmalee is riding high on few outta conference welter weight bouts, but also brings in the series lead, and wins within the said division. Could come down to conditions and proper conditioning. Chickens got reach, and youthfulness, Roadking has the agility, and raw power. Its gonna be a coin toss. Like putting custom Dugast against over the counter Rhino's. its all in the details and how you ride em and what type of pressure will get put in them. Im going with the Roadking. at slight margin, watts conditioning and experience, over the up coming "Chicken P". If CP can get in some early licks it may go in his favor. But the margin is slim.

Miscene Celebrity Grudge match.


Battle of the Old Guys. In the Argyle corner, we give you Mike Seaman. In the green corner, you have Keith Riege. Normally you'd have to get up pretty early in the morning to see this one, but luckily Tailwind makes them race about seven hours after they've been awake. With a combined age 2 years shy of a normal day for Robert Herriman, these two sluggers are one to watch. These two have been trading blows on the bike, but its about to come to a head. Don't let these two Masters fool you. They are fierce competitors who are going to have a knock down drag out on Sunday. After all, it is the granddaddy of the Tailwind series. Mike is probably licking his chops for the snow to start falling as he excels on the white stuff on the bike and the skis. He'll be raring' to go and when these two collide in the sprint, Mike's gloves come off first. He'll get the first few good shots in and if he's lucky, he'll land a haymaker. But don't let Mr. Nice Guy Riege fool you. Soft on the outside, this guy is a samurai warrior on the inside. He will react with Swiss precision, almost robotic like. So much so that jaws will drop as they see his raw display of Power. Mike will not see it coming and will be down for the count. If I were a betting man, I would put all my Dugast on Mr. Riege.

Miscene Celebrity Grudge match.


Alright Race Fans, who's it gonna be? It's time for Saturday Night Fights. These two have been dicing it up in the Tailwind Series all year long. In the red corner, riding for Two Wheel Tango, we have veteran Elite racer Andrew Weir. In the blue corner, riding for The Argyle Army, we have youngster Brian Hancock. If you only look at the results sheet, you have to go with Weir. But this ain't about results, its about what's going down once these fighters cross the line and get down to the real business. At 39, age isn't Andy's best friend right now, but all that experience could go a long way. He's been at it a long time and knows his way around a finish line. JB has youth on his side, but is more inexperienced in the Elite ranks. Brian has been in the Scene excelling as a Junior, but has struggled in the Elite ranks. With a superior reach, he could get in several shots before Weir could respond. Riding on pure Belgian blood, Andrew Weir will not go down without a fight, but can he overcome the visually confusing daze that is the Argyle Army kit? If you're heading to Vegas, put a couple Dugast's on Weir at 3 to 2 odds.
