After the world cup, Melburn's skies opened and it rained cats, dogs and salsa!
Una qué noche!
The Wizard, Shane Perkins pulled an electric move in the 2nd heat of the Gold Medal round to leave Kevin Sireau scratchin' his head all the way back to France.
I crossed paths with the Frenchman on Swanston st earlier in the day and taught him how to bunny hop Melburn's infamous tram tracks, sharpen his trackstands and skitch!
The UCITrack WorldCup has been and gone...
Sadly, XBBX didn't get over the line in the PEOPLE's choice for Australian Cyclist of the year.
It went to a Northcote rider instead.
Anyone who know's the front wheel from the rear, track nut from a quick release, their nuovo from their Gran sporti knows that cycling is all about 'looking good' on the bike.
It's why Eddy Merckx will forever be the greatest cyclist of them all. Never a stray folicle.
'oui. je sais que je suis beau'
XBBX has better legs, tattoos, a funnier blog, a cuter lady friend (can I say that...?), he even 'reads books'!
I haven't heard XBBX complain once, even on the 'Cannonball Run' when he was dropped on Mt. Agony and left to suffer (without the aid of team mates)
Though maybe complaining would help.
The squeeky wheel gets the oil - but I always figured that behaviour outside of the Australian psyche.
Better luck next year.
