A fast weekend, and a cracked frame.

Finally figured out when/where the Team 360 road ride started. Headed out for a solid 45 miles with those cats.....Solid indeed! We started out pretty manageable, and in true roadie fashion, as soon as we started getting a bit of tail wind we pinned it! Speed on the flats was exceeding 35 mph at times, and I couldn't bare to look when we were going downhill! Most of those guys know me only as a mountain biker, so they were surprised to see me show up with my funny skinny tire contraption......and with gears! Ahh, if they only knew I ride my road bike more than my Niner.
Sunday we had a Specialized demo out at Swope Park, only the raddest section of single track this side of anywhere! Worked the demo tent for a couple hours and then headed out for some proper shredding of said trails. Running no gears is amazingly quite, so you can imagine my dismay when I kept getting a creaking from who knows where. Well, the "where" is a crack in my seat tube at the seatstay weld. Bummer! I did get to take out Richards(Spec. demo guys personal bike) sworks epic 29 for a spin, and let's just say a rippin' spin at that! That bike was nails through all those rocky sections.....now I need to control myself.
Now back to that crack......race day coming up this weekend. So as to NOT miss another weekend of racing, my One9 is getting the call up one last time before she goes back for warranty. It's small enough, and in such a place it shouldn't cause life threatening injury.....oh, and maybe an upgrade?
