It WAS you! :-P Man, I stared at you and you didn't nod, wink, mumble or anything so I thought to myself "oops, not Etxy, how embarassment!". I couldn't remember your name too so I couldn't go: "Oi! realname". Oh well, told you I suck with names. ;-) Sorry man! Damn! I knew it was you! :-) Now it's my turn... How come you haven't been at the last two METEC crits? (maybe you have and I've snobbed you off again - hope not!). bad hippy |

I'll try and acknowledge you next time. hehe! ;-) I haven't been at the last couple of METEC crits because of two reasons. A) Profound lack of money, what with a new bike and all and B) Profound laziness. I might head on down soonish... Come on - it's only $5! Get yourself a higher paying job or something :-) hippy |

om... hippy you da man ! I thank you for returning it to me. I'll never bet wet again. Cool! Sorry about the delay :-) I was tempted to go back to the desk and borrow it for our post-race ride, when it started pishing down... :-) How was your race? Most of the C grade field was lapped by 5 uhem "significantly stronger" riders... grr. hippy |

Why is it that only the winner is upgraded when when all three riders ended up lapping the field? Were you guys going reasonably hard after they got away or did you lose the impetus to go hard? -- |

... Looks like Barton has been upgraded to B grade as per the race report on the Carnegie Caulfield website. Sounds that way. I didn't even get a mention! I did just as much work out the front as Carl.. no fair! http://www.carnegiecycling.com.au/ra...s/29Feb04.html. Why is it that only the winner is upgraded when when all three riders ended up lapping the field? No idea. Carnegie don't seem too concerned about grading. It seems to me that you can put yourself into any grade you want. Like the C grader moving into A in order to get bonus points for some bike prize they are offering? Makes you wanna enter D. If I want to just kill myself on a ride, I can save $10 and jump onto a fast Beach Rd. bunch... Were you guys going reasonably hard after they got away or did you lose the impetus to go hard? Carl and I were doing big turns and Rick and Gemma did some turns as well. I kept surging off the front (I found out after the race that this was bad) and kept dropping the rest of the bunch. Basically I cained myself trying to get onto a bunch that ended up lapping us.. not happy. This race was going to be a placing for me... hippy |
