So I'm riding along today on glade road (people in the fort might know this road) Anyway, just finished my last interval. I was spacing out when, out of no where this dog comes charging after me. Lucky for me, i saw him and started sprinting. I have had dogs chase me before, and usually all it takes is just a few hard pedal strokes and they give up. Today didn't quit work that way... He was staying with me and getting closer to my foot,I was starting to pull away when. The dog,( last Effort) nips at at my foot and actually gets a hold of the zipper on the back of my shoe cover. The Zipper on my shoe covers are a bit longer and they have this plastic Cover on the zipper. The dog got his tooth caught on the zipper some how, and ripped the plastic piece and part of the metal off of the zipper.. I couldn't believe it...
So, for you Fort Collins peeps.... Next time your riding on Glade road(N. of loveland) Watch out for this Brown mix of some sort.. mutt. He's fast and coming after you.

Jackson was the man today at the TOC... he's got the KOM and Most Aggressive rider Jersey.... Great day for jackson and the team!!!!
As for me I made it back to the fort... 14 hours of driving. glad it's over. Had a nice weekend of semi warm weather, hanging out with friends and family and finally starting the season off. It was nice to get in a little racing, before I head to belgium in a few weeks. .

No wonder Petacchi always wins... he races on a tandem. I'm surprised no one has come out and said anything about this??
I'm going to say... the fort collins group ride is faster then the bus stop ride in boulder.. just throwing it out there. Don't worry Boulder you're still Fast!!! On Sat I went to the famous Oval group ride ( meets @ 10 am on sat on campus if anyone is interested) I went for the first time a few weeks back not knowing what to expect.. To say the least the these dudes were hitten it.. young guys, older guys, women. It was a nice surprise!! Great ride, great people and I'm finally feeling at home.. well as far as cycling goes.. and in other news. R. Hamity even made a trip up here.. I think he liked it!!!
Leaving with Scott Nags Tuesday for VOS, I'm looking forward to 70 degrees!!! yes, finally shorts!!!
