Yesterday was another brutal cyclocross workout with my brother--my head was not in the game and he ended up lapping me . . . .Michael has always been a consistently better bike rider and racer than myself--spending a year in Belgium doing Kermesses surely helped with that, but he has a really good work ethic on and off the bike, and stays lean. He is always lean, even in the winter, a huge benefit to his consistency.
The thing is, though, he has this uncanny talent at cyclocross. I mean, he mixed it up with pros in New York at several events, finishing very well in A races. He'd dress in outrageous outfits, like a dress shirt and tie and follow Dan Timmerman around lap after lap before the lack of a huge road base finally got to him (the cx races in NY are well over an hour).

Things are muddy out there.
Missed you on the noon ride....
