rugby begins in three weeks... but there's still mountain biking to be had! the fall brings some tasty, tasty riding to the valley, and i'm wondering when there's going to be time to get out and pedal on nice, long rides when the days are getting shorter and my weekends are taken up with elegant violence...
what to do, what to do...
the real question, though, is how to fit enough of BOTH into my schedule. that's the fun part - having your cake and eating it, too! who says you can't...

The 24 Hours of GREAT GOOGALY MOOGALY, numero dos!
i did it again! i swore i wouldn't but, dammit, you can't keep a true dumbass down... here's the official TWAF press release:
Release: Team Weak and Feeble cracks the top 10 at the 24 hours of GG!
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (even though this is a fake release just designed to let everyone know about how TWAF did this weekend at the 24 hours of great glen - feel free to send it to cool people, though)
Pinkham Notch, NH - Fresh off a frustrating, yet strangely triumphant debut at the Jay Challenge in Jay, VT, Team Weak and Feeble regrouped and posted a 9th place finish at the 11th annual 24 Hours of Great Glen. The crew pedaled 25 laps around the 8.3-mile course in 24 hours, 19 minutes and 11 seconds. With Sven Cole (DEA) leading the way at seven laps (including a stunning, back-to-back, final-hours lap display to put a bow on the event) and Abe Wrobleski (A1), Josh Mac (PJ) and Nick LeBel (nK) adding six laps a piece, TWAF rebounded strongly after nK and PJ couldn't complete the Jay Challenge due to mechanical and physiological problems, respectively.
Pictured below is the happy TWAF after DEA rolled into the finish, with (L to R) nick leBel, josh mac, abe wrobleski and sven cole. below that is a fine action shot of nK callously ignoring a downed rider as he heads into "Miah's Drop", a particularly nasty section of singletrack that ate up both abe and nick later on in the day, proving that karma's a bitch.
take care, all,
