My Gosh. This is getting worse. Can't believe that I started this or that we'd do that to Tom.

I think the conversation will be livelier than the dinner date with Melissa the bank teller.

But I wouldn't wish her on Tom. He might have to find another plane to jump out of or another desert to run through.

Hey now, play nice. She sounded like she had some 'spunk' to her. Not a pretentious princess like others. A little spicy.

Only if it's on Blind Date so we get to watch the trainwreck.

We like Tom, right? =)

Good job, Kenney. We need our TNO AMEX-slapping bike-hating princess back.

Heh, maybe Claudia is down at IMNZ right now and meeting Tom (by fantastic coincidence of course) on the lovely shores of Lake Taupo during a practice morning swim!!!

I'm sure she's a lovely girl and she and Tom will make a beautiful couple.

Uh, guys, have any of you actually meet Tom? Claudia seems pretty nice, might not want to scare her off.

Good god no! I happen to like Tom. And I seriously doubt a woman who hates cycling would want to go out with a dude who lives & breathes it.

For my money, Ironclm is still his best bet.

I personnally would rather have the AMEX smackdown with Ironclm. I have no AMEX but would like the smackdown!!!You out there Cathy!

I'm always the last to hear the local gossip so why should on-line be any different. Who is Claudia?

You want smacked Kenney? I can take care of that. '-)

I never "whimpered" for a woman before..........But Hey whatever works TriBabe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Some woman here in Montana have riding crops!...........Whoops maybe thats going to far!

All this talk about Tom ... what's he like ... im in the market if the goods are worth the time! It's pretty hard to find a good guy who is into tri's and is still single!

>>Some woman here in Montana have riding crops!...........<<

Kenney, I grew up with horses and know how to wield a riding crop.......

Funny, I've noticed the same thing with tri girls!

yep ... thats becuase the tri girls you like already snatched up the tri guys i like - which leave us single people to resort to posting on tri forums for dates ... its especially hard for me because after hanging out with triathletes who take care of their bodies and have the motivation and drive to train and accomplish amazing things it is hard to date ordinary men who spend their days drinking beer and sitting on their ass!

yep, and if I go out on one more date with a girl that won't leave her house on certain nights of the week for fear of missing one of her shows, has NO sense of nutrition, thinks I am weird for swimming in Speedos (hey, they come in shorts now!), can't imagine riding a bike for more than 10 miles, turns into a whiny dependant emotional wreck whenever I tell her I need spend a few hours alone every day to train and then she loses all interest in talking with me about a race if I didn't 'win' it, I don’t know what I’ll do but it will be something stupid and counter-productive I’m sure!



Sorry, had to vent….

do you live in ny?? :)

Sadly, that's the closest I've had to an offer all winter! :) Just kidding - almost....

I live in St. Louis.

oh well .... had to give it a shot ... you never know
