This one's for Ron Kay

Well this one is for Ron Kay, who feels that we dont update nearly enough. He's definitively right. So enjoy Ron.

The last few days, John and Chad and I have been placing some bets down on Paris Roubaix, and also on the Seaotter. Since the seaotter is close to finishing up I'll lay down the overall predictions that we made on sunday of last week.

Chad-Todd Wells
John- Kabush
Chase- Bart Brentjens

Paris Roubaix is going to be quite the event around here at school. Well at least for five or six of us. We actually get OLN here in the dorms, so we'll all be riding inside, no matter how nice it is outside! Priorities!

Heres the predictions:

Chad- Hincapie (Go Georgie!)
John- Peter Van Petegem
Chase- Boonen (is it obvious that I chose first?)

Now that the predictions are out there, let me make this entirely clear. Just because I picked Boonen to probably win the thing, I would like nothing more than for someone to wipe the floor with his big mouth. That guy is pretty confident. And George, you need to go this year. No more of this, ohh I made the winning move, now I can just sit on and let the other guy win. No, you are gonna drop it down this year, and bring it home for the US of A.
















And a big shout out to Sam Shultz for his huge race at the Seaotter TT yesterday. Sam is on the U23 team, and could be my new hero. Here's to doing it again today in the short track Sam! Heres a pic from velonews of the podi from yesterday's TT, check out all the mud on Sam, he didnt even know he made the podium!

Ron, here's your quote for today. I think it reflects some of the trails you guys put in this summer, and the many more to come!

"Really good mountain bikers are lousy judges of trail difficulty. We haven't a clue, we just ride."
-John Olsen

Well thats it for now, more later, and more ofter!
