TOMORROW IS TOAST...

Josh Tostado looks to dominate the Breck 100 again tomorrow
There's a whole lot of racin going on tomorrow, Saturday, July 17th. Right here in the hood it's goin down big time with MTB Nationals at Sol Vista, and Xterra Mountain Championship event at Beaver Creek and the Breck 100, the penultimate MTB sufferfest. The Breck race is a true MTB race as opposed to some of the other races in these parts that claim to be such. Josh Tostado has dominated this event for years, and I'll never understand how these riders push themselves to these way over the top limits, but we will find out tomorrow if "Toast" can repeat. Last year's victory was norrow by 100 mile standards, with the margin of victory just over 10 minutes...I'll be there calling the action all day, it's gonna be a BIG race on a BIG day in Breck, and to be honest, the Firecracker pales in comparison. 100 miles and in the hood of 12,000 vert of climbing, over 400 racers....yowsa.

And now that I'm getting old and baggy, well, let's just say it's time for me to join the "pants on the floor" crowd and GO BAGGY. A fresh supply of baggies just arrived at the Mountain Pedaler in Eagle from JETT, and I'm givin the rogger doggers some breathing room from here on out, I aint dumpin the Lycra, due to having like 20 bib shorts, but this is my new grandpa style plaid look, and I dig it, get ya some.
