Brazil report #2

Yesterday night, the wind pushed the clouds and the rain away, so today was a nice and sunny day, and getting warmer. Latest report gave a 78f sunny day on sunday for race day.
Nice 30 minute swim this morning. Wetsuit was limit too warm…throw in some race pace, and don´t forget the vaseline on the neck sunday…not like today…
Easy ride this afternoon, 1h+ with 3x5 minute race pace.
Will likely not spend too much time on the bike before the race as the traffic is quite bad and the drivers not exactly the best in the world.

That will be a fun race if the weather stays like it is.

Ken Glah confirmed that drinks will be given in proper bike bottles…he was quite upset that someone started this rumor actually. Specially considering they are making a lot of effort to improve the race from what race to the next.

Keep the reports coming Sir. Have a great race and be safe. You fan club here will be sending positive energy.

and my apologies for forgetting the digital camera and not posting pictures! :wink:

No pictures equals you are not there.

You really need to prove us wrong.

Seriously man, kick some ass down there. There are lots of people here rooting for you. And afterwards we can prove some nice theorems about exactly WHY you kicked ass.

Smart of you not bringing a camera. No need to document incrimating evidence of you doing the limbo with some topless latin hotties!!

On the other hand, I guess you are already married to a hottie so damn you for tortuing us. If you see a guy with a near shaved head and a big tatoo on his lower back, say hi to my buddy Jady. He’s actually an electrical engineer but likes to likes to look like a bad ass.

unlike what jaylew said previously…there are some hotties indeed…amazing he missed the black super hottie that was around a few hours ago… hehe…he was busy working on his swim…or maybe busy finding the bag he forgot at home…LOL…

Have a great race!

Good luck man. Kick ass.

Welcome to the Southern Hemisphere my friend. I felt a disturbance in the force down here - it must have been you!

Good luck for the weekend.

cheers.

Have a great race Francois!

SWIM- like that big bitch catfish is going to eat your French ass…RIDE your Lucero like you stole it from Slowmans garage…and RUN …well -run like your French or something.

PS: If you want to use my back up digital camera and promise to post some pics, I’ll be more than happy to Fedex it you.
Let me know asap.

don´t use FEDEX to ship ANYTHING to Brazil… Francois would need to pay importation taxes…specially for a digital camera…I heard about a guy who paid taxes for a racing singlet…

BTW, getting to florianopolis on Friday

thanks for the support…
Olaf has his digital camera though…so we may work something out tomorrow

don´t use FEDEX to ship ANYTHING to Brazil… Francois would need to pay importation taxes…specially for a digital camera…I heard about a guy who paid taxes for a racing singlet…

What he said…I got a piece of luggage shipped and they are holding it for $500 ransom(US dollars) on the mainland.

Go get em Francois!!! I’ll be sending you some positive thoughts as I suffer this weekend on my first century. :slight_smile:
M~

Francois my long time internet pal…best of luck, and as always, I’ll be sending some vibes your way to help any way possible…

…so…just when things are really tough on the run…think of the entire ST crew standing on the side of the road…with their pants around their ankles mooning you.

…yup…that should break the tension :wink:

Go get 'em bud!
