i would totally do it, but i could see it now..

Random track go-er in the morning: "dayum! look at that hot Riders Discount bike that dude must be hella fast"

Random Track day go-er at end of day: "shit, that guy is slow... Riders Discount really lowered their standards..."

I wouldn't have thought this was really a concern for them. Frenchie has her bike painted up in RD colors, and she's not super quick. Doesn't have the latest and greatest bike either.

At the club level, i understand why only the ultra fast riders usually have true sponsorship, but look at the pros and it's a different story.

Tommy Hayden and Joey Pascarella don't have rides this year, but Melissa Paris does. Marketing is not driven only; or even primarily, by race results.

Busy at work means slow progress in getting bodywork mounted. Tank on today, no fuel/oil/water so no start :/

Will likely run without pucks with this bodywork, and with pucks when I run my alternate bodywork.

Now I feel bad for all the PMs for pricing....:D

I'd say I'm finally done.

Finally got out to ride at Grattan today with WERA. That track just kicked my ass, extremely fun but what a freaking work out. Just a further kick in the rear to get to the gym/out to pedal more often.
