Stage 1- Road Race

Well the day started out nice and easy with a few guys slipping off the front. And no one even took notice? So before you know it there are six guys up the road with a 2 min. gap!!?? But we thought its gonna be a long, ho, hilly day for those guys. And with a good effort we could bring them back. Wrong! So with a chase of Mostly Shirks and Hotfoot riders for almost three laps we brought it down to around a minute. Then a Hotfoot rider attacked on the climb with Kerry in tow. Which was a God send for both are teams cause that took the pressure to chase away, and all we had to do was cover attacks. Which came over and over! Kerry managed to catch all but 3 of the remaining breakaway to take 4th with John, Binkley, Doug, and I coming in with what was left of the field in 22nd, 39th, 31th, and 18th. All in all decent day.

Stage 2- Individual Time Trial

Sunday morning we wake up to the beauty of torrential down pours knowing we have to race! Not cool but the show must go on. Lucky for the Shirks squad Noah Mabry are resident coach/Triathlete/Cyclist/Sex Symbol/ =) lives about a tenth of a mile from the start/finish. So all the guys, bikes, trainer and all piled inside the garage and out of the storm! It was pretty cool to have this luxury. With a good warm up and some trash talking we were ready to grip it and rip it! J. Bink was first to go with myself, Doug, Kerry, and John to follow.
It was a really good course for a TT. With 11 miles of rolling hills and long straights. A power course for sure. The tricky part was the weather. The winds were always changing directions and the rain would come and go at different strengths. Just imagine going down the road riding as hard as you can, you cant see cause its raining and your dodging deep water puddles slash horse crap ( Lots of Amish in the area). You say crazy we say good times =). Well with all those challenges the squad pulled of some decent results. Kerry being are best GC hope didn’t disappoint coming in 3rd just 20sec or so off the winning time! With myself coming in at 14th, Binkley 25th, Doug 28th, and John 29th.

Stage 3- Crit

So at the start of the crit Kerry was sitting 2nd overall and only 1 point behind first place! We all felt confident he could take it if we just kept him out of trouble. The race started out fast with attacks from the gun! We tried to follow any that looked dangerous. But go figure the one we don’t stays away! With the break looking like they would stay clear we had to make and get Kerry as many points as possible. On the last lap Binkley started the lead out and with less than half a lap I took the front giving it 100 percent till the last corner. I start pulling off and glance over might right shoulder to see Kerry coming and coming fast! And that’s about the time I also see bodies start falling over each other! Effectively taken Kerry out of the sprint. Luckily he was not hurt.
So not what we would have liked for a outcome. But we had a great time racing and a top five on GC. It was cool to have the whole squad racing. And many more chances to come.

All for now, Manny

Final Overall GC- Kerry 5th
Manny- 18th
Noah- 35th
Doug- 39th
John- 40th
Jordan- 41th

Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
