No no no. You're not a closet gay, you're letting it all hang out,

Hi Scott,

Well I can't do a proper victory salute any more after injuring my
shoulder. I had just finished PT on the shoulder when I went and
injured my hand and knee. I was at the Rapids season opener against
the LA Beckhams a few weeks ago and when they scored their first goal,
I threw up my arms like I'd just won a fatty masters crit. It hurt
like hell.

Don't fatty masters throw up their energy gels at the end of a crit?

Or throw away their water bottles before the start of the sprint.

That's what you get for supporting that euro-sissy pretend sport they
call 'footie'

That seems like a lot of work, you would think they would want to conserve
energy. And do they really do that with their ultra-light $400 carbon-
fiber water bottles with the gel-insert hand grips or do they have a
"throw-down" cheapy plastic bottle they use for discarding before the
sprint?

Joseph, do you throw away your camelback before the start of a sprint, or
wait until midway through? Ryan probably chugs the beer he's holding,
crushes the can on the forehead of the guy next to him, and then starts his
sprint. Kunich probably starts his sprint the day before because it takes
a while to wind a 55-12 out to 180 rpm, even if cadence is a red herring.
I wait until I'm alone to start my sprint, and I guess you could read that
euphemistically too.

I rode a (5 day) tour once where half the fatty masters were throwing
their water bottles away before the last km. And most of them didn't
have much hope of winning either.

I don't. Usually comes up when I comment on the really great bikini,
or outfit and the male or female I'm with responds. Seems to be a big
issue with some folks though. I sort of always figured it in terms of
field size. Gay guys cut down on the competition, lesbians take some
great options off the market, but can be a blast to hang out with
while admiring the scenery out there. One of our previous hardcore
biker bars became a hardcore dyke bar and if anything became even more
fun and interesting. I only go there on Halloween these days, and hang
out with the bartender and her friends. Kind of a yearly ritual. Great
time, but I was shocked as hell when I went back in the first time and
got tossed for language that would've been "sunday school" in it's
previous life. Figured out how it worked though. People watching there
beats the hell out of anything on the idiot box these days.

Buying? I thought they were giving those away free with each fill up.
