Local Rider/Barber

Hey, I thought ya'll might wanna hear about this other Uni rider I met
in the area. His name is Crazy Dave and is a hair stylist. But get
this, he only rides for fitness, and commutes to work everyday. That
in itself isn't the impressive thing though....what is impressive is
the fact that he rides up a local mountain, 8-9 % grade (15% at
steepest point I think), with 80 lbs on his back. When he isn't doing
that, he is riding up backwards or on his giraffe.

Steveyo, I'm gonna try to convince him to race you one of these
days....

Hey, keep him away from my races! I don't want THAT much competition!
:eek: 😄

I donno man, the local mountain isn't as long as your races and training
rides are. I mean, he is strong and has great endurance (spins high
speed inside while on a treadmill), but you have alot more hill riding
experience. If he does show up, you are gonna have to compete with his
ego, for it is quite large. He says he could beat Kris Holm in a
distance race...

Them's big words. I'm a hack compared to AspenMike or GizmoDuck or KH
or a bunch of other riders, but this guy Crazy Dave should try a longer
climb and then get back to us.

Well, I figure it would be best for him to find out on his own the
abilities of you and the other riders out there, cause he won't listen
to me when I suggest that he just might lose.
