Ray's Racing Adventures: July 2009
http://raysracingadventures.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 31, 2009. The new busier me. Well I am signed up for college once again. Its only been what, 19 years since I was a college student? Textbooks are on the way and I already received my first tuition bill and boy oh boy was that a shock! I started a new job that was offered to me on a bike ride no less. Its hard, dirty work and a far cry from my last two "desk jobs" in sales, but I am darn glad to have it. Links to this post. Tuesday, July 28, 2009. I told him I am not yelling, just saying....

Ray's Racing Adventures: It gets easier
http://raysracingadventures.blogspot.com/2009/12/it-gets-easier.html
Saturday, December 5, 2009. I studied most of the day. When I wasn't studying I ate a wee bit too much. I made bacon and a cheese omelet for breakfast and baked potatoes with cheese, sour cream and butter for lunch. I think I am making up for it with a salad for dinner. Though me thinks some dessert may be in order. OH well, its a weakness. Now the question is when do I start ramping it up? Some beer, food if you like-what else! Page when the first one will be. And everyone who doesnt train with powe...

Ray's Racing Adventures: Choices, Self Loathing and More
http://raysracingadventures.blogspot.com/2011/08/choices-self-loathing-and-more.html
Tuesday, August 23, 2011. Choices, Self Loathing and More. Did you ever have the opportunity to hear "that guy" who makes all the decisions, compromises, sacrifices that makes his life the way it is and then still complains when things don't work out? I call that the ole cliche of "you make the bed, you sleep in it." I really despise that guy, hence, therefore I must hate myself cause I do it all the time now. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Ray's Racing Adventures: November 2009
http://raysracingadventures.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 30, 2009. When I was in Chicago this summer at the USA Cycling Cat. 2 coaching clinic I met one of the other coaches who trained junior triathletes. He was quite loquacious, but the one thing I remember most was that he could always tell children who trained (especially ran) with their parents. He could pick them out because they ran slow. And hm, hm, Carbon Racing. To pick up for regional racing. Sort of thingy, but I assure you it is not. Links to this post. Thursday, November 19, 2009.

On The Move: Edinburgh Cross Race 2014
http://inquintessence1.blogspot.com/2014/11/edinburgh-cross-race-2014.html
The Adventures of Rick. Saturday, November 1, 2014. Edinburgh Cross Race 2014. My first (and only so far) cyclocross race this season. Ironic what happens when you work at a bike shop you don't get to race as much! For some reason the sand pit owned me that day.I didn't get through it clean once. The bunny hop over the log at 18-20 mph was my redemption! This was my first race on the Wilier and the bike is fantastic! I'm not getting rid of the Ritchey Ti Cross but this Wilier is sweet! Matt's a U23 (SBR).

On The Move: November 2011
http://inquintessence1.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Rick. Tuesday, November 29, 2011. Turkey Shoot Cyclocross Race. We have only just started 'cross season here. Something about racing in above 80' weather makes it tough to think about doing cross! This race is a favourite of mine; it's in Tampa (close), it's a technical course and it has great views of Tampa bay. My race (45 ) was at 9:30am and I was picking up Tony do it was a 7am leave the house time. Showed what I felt.I didn't leave anything out there. Here's some photos I took.

On The Move: Some sweet shoes for the Venge!
http://inquintessence1.blogspot.com/2014/03/some-sweet-shoes-for-venge.html
The Adventures of Rick. Thursday, March 13, 2014. Some sweet shoes for the Venge! I've been testing some different wheels to buy to replace my FSA tubies that have been breaking spokes too frequently. I was torn to get a set of new tubies but I wanted to play around with different tire sizes and clincher was the only way to do that so for the most part I check out different clincher wheelsets. No science behind my testing but more of a feel on how they felt. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Dan's less...
