Life is complicated, cross is simple, for that one hour all of life's complications take a back seat to whats right in front of you. In a weird way, it's relaxing.schttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02133949499577299613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-391640204835964628.post-28152095294850765892011-01-07T10:44:31.074-06:002011-01-07T10:44:31.074-06:00Those 25 year olds, they are getting beat by 18 ye...Those 25 year olds, they are getting beat by 18 year olds who chose to train instead of partying and having a social life. Those 18 year olds, they wish their parents cared to get them racing when they were 12 so they aren't getting killed by 15 year olds in belgium. Those kids who started racing when they were 12, they're now partying in college, burnt out on the "commitment." <br /><br />I'll bet there are plenty of 45 year olds wishing they had started at your age, there is still plenty of time to be fast, who knows, maybe when your 50 you'll be able to beat Tilford.<br /><br />Just pedal harder and don't think much, thats why cross is so good, it makes everyone suffer.Volker Bicycles of KChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14052035227635578045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-391640204835964628.post-12631904614274796292011-01-05T19:38:33.695-06:002011-01-05T19:38:33.695-06:00Good read Chris.

I have a lot of similar thoughts sometimes, probably since we're about the same age.jsinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16006898272135888438noreply@blogger.com
