When did the group rides become so damn popular. This weekend I was looking around at the raincross ride and I was thinking that we are just about maxed out on attendance.
The line for the crapper at the Taco place is a solid 10 minutes , and we all remember the time Jeff threw a deuce and we had to throw up some yellow police tape. The lady at the VIP wee wee spot finally asked us to cease and desist.
Actually It's nice to see the sport that I have devoted a good 200 hours into gaining popularity. I just need to figure out a way to get money out of the people doing the rides.
Who wouldn't pay good money to attend a Freeman climbing clinic or an Anger management webinar co-hosted by JT and Turner. Maybe a cycling daycare van that sags the rides and keeps Timmy in line. The possibilities are endless. Sup Able.
Anyhow the real purpose of this post is to give the crowds a big shout out. I remember when the only spectators on the Tuesday night world championships was a dude watering his lawn on Sunset.
Now we have people arriving early for the best parking spots and I even saw some tailgating last night. I heard the Churro guy sold out by 6:30. And good luck getting one of those foam # 1 fingers that read Health net.
Cycling in the 909 is growing and now we have the crowds to prove it. Damn i bet next week you might see a guy in a devil suit on the wall.
This is classic..."The line for the crapper at the Taco place is a solid 10 minutes , and we all remember the time Jeff threw a deuce and we had to throw up some yellow police tape".
ReplyDeleteI'm howling... frigging laughing out loud. Toilet humour is ALWAYS funny.
Thanks for the shout out! Your totally right about the growth of the group rides I think it was Miller who started "get the best parking spot" on the Tuesday night world championships.
