always in search of that extra gear


Karma scale May 25, 2007

So I got mine for teh close call in the points race…today I did the TT and was canada’s only entry in the Elite Mens catigory. It was 40.4 km out and back and out and back. Gradually climbing out…false flat back. And just to keep this short and sweet I am coming back with extra luggage. I got the silve medal…and beat the bronze medal winner by…get this…0.8 seconds…so I guess I am pretty much the king of close calls. To date my closes TT win was 3 seconds and my closest TT podium spot was 1 second. Maybe next time I will try to get it within 0.5 sec just so it is interesting.

Not so frustrated anymore.

    Hey Zach,
    Well done………It would just be nice if you could pick ,ya know, one thing to be good at so we could figure out what the heck you are….Sprinter, ITT rider, pursuiter, points rider, epic stage rider…you seem to be suffering from some sort of competative A.D.D.

    Seriuosly though, well done and enjoy your success.
