Exactly! Expect a warp speed, lap-of-destruction, with dudes getting spit right out the back. Excellent blogging material: I was dropped by Ned.

DL – Speaking of “ringers”, I just heard a rumor that Ned Overend will be working for Specialized at Interbike…

Bike Hugger’s strategy, that we’re discussing now, is to not get dropped by the ex-pros and the “ringers” in the field. Don’t break in the corners, stay on the wheel, and no way is Baby Jogger going to gap us!

We expect some media rivalry between old-school publisher and the insurgent bloggers . . . probably see a few racers puking after getting instantaneously dropped on the first corner, suffering with a supreme hang over (hopefully not us).

I wish I could race. Well line up to start anyway. But alas I’m not anywhere near the bike biz, nor in shape to start. It sounds like it’ll be one ripsnorter of a race though.

Is this a no-field limit race like Harlem? 250 starters? Or is it more reasonable?

And finally will we see highlights in the Interbike show highlights?

Not going to “turn a pedal in anger” as Phil Ligget would say, Fritz? Either way, it will be good to see you there.

That is seriously cool, Rich.

I’ll be there (not racing, but watching ) on behalf of Tim Grahl’s Crooked Cog Network, BTW.
