@ Wife#1, a Tranny would be both a him & a her, right?

Hey Pal, already enjoying this year’s Leadville100 writeup.

DaveT, I was wondering how the opening miles went for you…I was assuming you’d knock an easy 10 to 20 minutes off your time if you had “preferred” corral placement (such as our friend buddy, dude, chief, hey you, turd, sport, and champ).

Awesome report Mr. McBudderson! (Reba, that is priceless…I’m still chuckling at that one! I hope someday to attend one of your rides so you can destroy, thrash, demolish, crush, annihilate, nuke, and incinerate me…I’m thinking simply using the word “chicked” would be an understatement of vast proportions).

If you started in the back in 2010 that would explain it. It was like riding a human accordion. My time for this segment was 37:44.

Just for the record Fatty, people on geared bikes get passed at the start of Leadville too. Been there, had that done to me. My mantra was “race YOUR race, not theirs!” I looked at them as rabbits to catch….

If it had been me, it would have entirely been because I temporarily forgot your name. I have this amazing power to forget people’s name even when I know them very well. I can literally tell you the last three conversations I’ve had with a kid, but if they catch me in the hall out of context, I’ll blank on their names.

But then I don’t use nicknames when I blank. I just steadfastly refuse to refer to them by anything. You probably would have just gotten a “sup” or something out of me.
