I'm a lurker, first post here, but just wanted to say that I ride with Colby's mother, Lisa. I live about 40 minutes east of Chester, CA. Lisa and Chuck are wonderful people. I don't know Colby, but I've heard of his riding for years, and how he started doing centuries at a young age. Wonder if he'll be attending the Tour of California as a spectator. Wish I was closer.
I love small world stories!

hey Netta-
He is racing here in AZ this weekend. He said that he hopes his team makes it into the toc next year.
VERY small world indeed!! Please tell Chuck and Lisa hello for us, and pass on the story. Our friends Albert and Dave were on that snowy ride, and loved that we met their son.

Runny Mommy - The club I belong to has some elite women racing there this weekend. Seems there were multiple crashes in the women's field today. If you have a chance to watch tomorrow, watch for Team Revolution. One of the riders is around 4 or 5 now in the GC. Actually my avatar is their logo.

Huh. We were just talking about him last week with an old friend. Plus, I'd just been sorting through old boxes of trail info and came across some stuff from him.

Hmmm... thinking of going up to the crit tomorrow before I have to open the shop. I'll keep my eyes out.
Too bad about the crashes! How did they happen?? It was a nice day here today- albeit cool. But not really windy. Tho casa grande can get gusty winds.
SK.. thats pretty funny. Did you ever do any bodfish rides? I love the name of the shop... Bodfish bicycles and quiet mountain sports..

I will forward this thread on to Lisa. She'll get a kick out of it for sure!

Mind you, Bandon is a good 8 hour drive away from my hometown. Love those small world moments.
