The agony of defeat......

Postby J Gallo » Fri Aug 27, 2004 8:58 am

I stand here a broken man. Ok, technically I'm "sitting here a broken man" cause I'm typing at the computer, but you get the idea :)

After having fairly decent success in all my races in the past year, I have failed to make my main in the last 2 races. For some reason sitting in front of my computer and drinking Vanilla Coke all day isn't making me any faster. Go figure! :shock:

Now while I sincerely enjoy being Ian's "bridesmaid" each race (ya think I'd look cute in a pink chiffon dress with puffy shoulders? :roll: ), it's time to either get serious or become a full time photographer. I'm tired of looking at other guy's butts my entire race. :oops:

So on that note, if anyone would like to join me for sprints tonight in the Copper Hills High School parking lot, let me know.

You know how they would hang a carrot out in front of a horse to get him to go? You think that would work for me if I rigged up a picture of Ian's smiling face in front of me? :lol:

Why limit this to a single point race on a tuesday nite? I say if we're gonna make this happen, we should do it on State Championship Final Sunday!

And thinking even further, I wonder if it would be possible to have a race on Halloween (or close to Oct 31st) with everyone in costume? Hmmmmm.......

Will I look insanely ridiculous? - You bet!

Will everyone in attendance be laughing? - More than likely....

Bring it on!

A Halloween race is not a new thing, its just weather related. Back in 83'-84' at the old Fairgrounds indoors they used to hold a Halloween race. I remember a gal who had a cape on & the thing just about ripped her head off after it got caught in the back wheel.

now, isn't that the same as Ian's a&& being infront of you the whole race?? That doesn't seem to work too well. lol

I know what ya mean about sitting in front of the computer, though. That is ALL I do all night at work, 8 hours of sitting. It's not good.

Jason all you have to do is easy:

Dig deep, want it more than Ian does, and give it time. It took me QUITE a while to actually start qualifiying, and don't push yourself harder than you can take it.

I did show up at the track last night for about 15 mins. I got home late so couldn't make it to the race on time.

Now, if I had known you had a dress ready for me.... hmmmmm???

Plus, I think it would be funnier during the SCF on Sunday. On a pit bike. :lol: :oops:

Jason, it'd be a blast to see you in pink. :lol:

And don't worry, Dan will probably find a way for you to race pit bikes in the dress. Just have alot of duct tape ready so you won't get that pretty pink lace stuck in your chain.
