Why? Because he proclaimed that, after finishing second in the master race tonight, John would assuredly flip-flop what’s become his Wednesday night 1-2 routine by winning the big boy race.
Kevin was right. John finally got the win after a string of close calls. Aaron rode really well, and even though my strength seems to have left my body with the steady stream of green snot I’ve been expelling for several days, I tried to make it hard a few times and covered here and there before just hanging on to the end. John handled it by his own badass self tonight. Tuckerman handed out post-race margaritas. It was lovely.
Tresser gets the shout out for a fourth in the master race, and Dan got a strong third in the fixed category. Well done lads.
Not to be outdone, Catherine and Ann accomplished their goals of hanging on longer in their respective races than the previous week. A good night.
Finally, although I’m green with envy (and snot), big warm hugs to Gant and Grant while they’re in the midst of the BC Bike Race. What I wouldn’t give…go boys!
