No Knitting To Show

Still have an achy arm/hand, even after taking yesterday off, so I'll probably be taking it easy today as well.

So the only update is that Matt did make it to the Chester County Bookstore to the Floyd Landis book signing. He got there nice and early, got to hear the Q&A section and was early getting his book signed.

Matt did want to ask for advice for what an almost 40 year old Cat 3 rider should do to make it to the pros, but didn't get a chance.


2006 Iron Hill Twilight Crit Amateur Start

Matt's race team title sponsor is sponsoring a crit this weekend: The Iron Hill Twilight Criterium. The amatuer race is for Cat 3/4 only (no cat 5 catagory) as it's a technically tough coarse. Lot's of crashes last year. There's a woman's elite race and a men's pro race. They'll also have some fun (and free) kid races. This is one of the best spectator races in the area. It's right downtown in beautiful West Chester and the riders come around often (the amateur race is probably at speeds of 30 mph with the pros averaging a little faster than that...). It's a great day of racing, so if you're in the area, bring the kids and enjoy some great bike racing!
