Well, I'm taking my bike to the LBS today to have new tires put on--which I needed before this race anyways. The cabling is shot. It needs to be completely redone. I need new brake pads--possibly new rotors. New chain and chain rings. It's a disaster. Essentially its going to be overhauled. Which is great because I just paid of the CC--time to rack up the debt again! (sigh).

Here are a couple of more pictures. You can tell the first one was taken right after the start--I don't have any mud on my face!Click image for larger version.  Name: p2p02.jpeg  Views: 140  Size: 165.1 KB  ID: 15516Click image for larger version.  Name: p2p01.jpg  Views: 143  Size: 168.1 KB  ID: 15515Click image for larger version.  Name: p2p03.jpeg  Views: 142  Size: 126.9 KB  ID: 15517
