Esquire Tuesday

I like Rachel Weisz because she's not manufactured and seems like a real girl. Some of these other girls would never go to a baseball game, or watch a bike race. Crit racing is hard, crashes are real, and people get hurt. That element of violence has always been a draw for me. Just ask Elliot with hishelmet-shaped dent in his forehead after hitting a drain draw-down in a twilight crit. Heal up quick pal.

Esquire Tuesday on Sunday



I missed last tuesday. TOns to write here, but I need to share the following. I made it home from Hot August NIghts Old Timer's Car show in Reno in time to watch Entourage. One question: who the hell is E's new GF and why would he choose her over Emmanuelle Chriqui? WTF? Well, after looking at the above pics, I have decided that her 'alien-I dont ever eat-and I weigh 87 lbs" self is fine with me. What do you think? Women (read: mom), I expect to hear your opinion.

Fallen rider
of biz with me. His fiancée Brooke has been begging me to take her on
a ride for months. Yesterday was nice enough so I took her down the
treacherous wildcat canyon. Wanting to look "cute," she opted out of
gloves but said a helmet was ok.
Well, she made it down the very curvy descent with no problem. Worked
her way back up the hill with a goodsweat,"this is just like spinning"
she proclaimed.
Just as her confidencewas peaking, she took a flat corner a little too
fast and drifted outside. She got to the brakes late and was already
in the gravel just off the road before she napped a handful of
brakes. Front tire locked up and she looked like menchov jn the last
k of the giro. She tore up her hand and knee (no big deal if you ask
me) and milked the whole crashng thing for quite a while. I have
crashes Like this on the mtn bike
2 or 3 tines a ride. Bit I took it easy on her because she is getting
married in a couple of weeks.
I kept telling her that the men at the wedding would respect her more
if she shows up with a nice scar and some road rash on her leg.
