right then. keeping in the theme of an attempt to drag my most sorry ass into some manner of shape before i hit 50, i thought maybe if i go back 25 years or so i could recapture that bounding spirit of the young and stupid. i never did lose the stupid part, but i could do with a little youthful motivation.
to that end, my bulletin board motivational poster looks something like this. a decent sized mtn bike race, at a venue most surprising. note the classy mode of strating, singlespeed style with no waves or classes, just one big neon coloured and lycra-helmet-covered mass.
name the venue and i will let you sit on russell's wheel for perhaps 10 miles at the upcoming Door County Century - Winter Edition

Is that the old Minooka race?
Waaaaiiiiiit - where's their carpet-fibre? How could they possibly race without it?
Oh sure, that's the 1984 edition of Wisconsin's 1st 24hr mtb race, over at Bong.

nope. hint - the location where i first laid purple-john-lennon-glasses-wearing eyes on the lovely gretchen, and where hayes brakes own lenny feebly tried to fill my shoes at a former workplace.
I didn't know they had mtb races at Woodstaock.
nyuk nyuk.
it is the XC running course at UW parkside.
