  It was just Kristof, his Curve Cycling titanium bicycle (that he has named Natascha), and his credit card. No one else.

  Not subtle, really annoying. Curve is pretty tedious for this relentless product placement and spamming.

  I got the impression from that indypac doc that he doesn't like be bothered when he's racing, so makes sense to keep this relatively low key and not publish his location or the route.

  Yeah, totally. Singlespeeding the divide is next level. I rode a lot with a guy from Minnesota riding SS, it would have driven me nuts.

  Bring on the pinion.

  Scott you still planning to do it?

  He's the fastest rookie I can think of so far

  Yeah, he does loads of miles (this year he's averaged about 400 a week), but there's a lot more to it than that, Some people didn't do those crazy miles, Mike Hall for example. It's also about consistency, panning, mental fortitude, etc. I've been super fit and had lots of time on the bike for several events and my head has total let me down on the day(s) and I've bailed due to a small issue that really shouldn't have stopped me pushing on. All I can do is learn from these experiences, and go back and try again!
