See Potter has a magic wand
Boy, that was the toughest race I did in the longest time, and I thought I was getting fit enought to really road race. that break on thursday ripped my legs off... barely made it to the finish for fifth, and luckily with lots of time to spare, as I collapsed Fignon style. but seemed to be ok to race the circuit the next day and sqweezed out a seventh, sure am glad got away from the gaggle and that sprint would of been really embarrassing. looks like sprinting is still out, so attacking will have to be in.

unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
was that the most unbelievalbel RdV!!!!!!!!!! the way Ballan put it down on the Muur.. and then drove it all the way to the line,... led out Hostefor 2k, held off the chargers and then clip Leif on the line!.... WOW is that a peak or What. how about that drag race to line for 10k... that s some kinda bike race! and these guys are the fastest in the World. I'm blown... gonna watch that last bit a few times and wish the coverage was better.. send me the feed or maybe just Ballan's vitamin pack... boy Hostey is hatin' life,.... glad I got a real job or what is left of it.
Happy Easter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get out the fire extinguisher and put out the red hot Olaf. He coasted to the win at one of the toughest and most fun road races in NorCal. That descent screams! Someone tried to tell me they hated this race, but I quickly road away.... Go home buddy. Missed all the fun with a locked rear brake, thank the MAN not on the downhill or else might get a DanSmith style scar. It ended up being due to a lever slip... started to hate scram, now I love it again. ChrisD diagnosed it in two seconds... and gave me the fix, just before he heads to Roubaix to make sure his, best in the world crankset smokes em....
Lot of guys, as usual had problems, but this race is classic and fantastic, but ya gotta be fit to enjoy it. The last of the herd rumbled in.
Many many thanks to a great team move and player, Pablo Serna, he gave me his wheel on the first climb, WOW... how luches is that,.... glad it was a front, cause he's campy. I wanted to reward him and launch Nitro, but as luck has had it at this race, there was more to come after reconnecting and charging. Nitro road great again, but it's hard to hold off the 'Olaf Expres' right now. Well, good news might be he won't be at SeaPotter, and just to be different it is 30+ and 40+...OK. Not to mention the most expensive race in the known universe. why is that?..... cause they can?
Levi used it for training? WOW! this is a TdF caliber course. Guess my favorite race RdV ain't tough enough,.... no that belongs to Georgie, and he is busted up....... Go NorCal!!!!!

Easter and RdV at the same time
If you believe in God and like bike racing, there could not be a greater weekend then this one. Had my birthday on easter a few times, but was to young to realize how special it could be. But the Ronde and easter on the same same day, it has happened before, but this is now and I can feel the earth shaking. Pickin' a winner would be a betting mans game, but big Tom Boonen is a safe one, PvPG a long shot, Bettini a fan fav or Cancellara odds on. My pick is Jens Voight, even money.
Boonen says "Ik lig niet wakker van derde Ronde op rij"

You won't suffer from dizzy spells for goin' round and round like ya had to this weekend, but can't speculate on the wind though the sun should brown ya'.
