Temps in the mid 30s meant there were more riders out on the road. Apparently there is an 'ice-storm' coming this week that send people back inside. So what did we learn this weekend....
1. The coming man is Rob Smallman. Second in the Marian indoor TT means this former IU track guy has put down an early marker for this years race. The Hoosier Climber dudes are training hard and are no longer under the radar.
2. Army women looking to stwp it up to the next level in 2011 and are riding strong and beating some good Marian girls in the indoor TTs! Intriguing one of their riders DNF the TT, I hope she didn't crash!
3. Cutters seen riding their Little 500 bikes. Shocking!! My advice to others teams...follow their example, do specific training on those bikes. It ain't rocket science!
4. Good bike riders are easily spotted by the ease of their spin, not many here in town but I rode with one today.
5. Late nights are not good for recovery.
6. Sigma Chi are the latest team with a new jersey and look pretty 'fly'.
7. It's enjoyable to ride with big mixed groups. Over 10 riders from the Bakehouse both days, come join us in future!

I clicked on the Sigma Chi link and they don't know their race history. F1J1's might want to call them.
who had the pretty spin?
Is homie from Hoosier Climber even eligible since he is a former varsity sports participant at IU?
yes, varsity athletes can participate in L5
Paul Levy from HC? only a half second back from me, and Chris Wood only a few back from Paul.
Great job Rob! And your teammates! I can't wait to see how this coming season goes for you, you were already killing it in the fall when we were riding together.
How does a team "step it up" while simultaneously having a rider DNF a 6 mile indoor TT?
how do you DNF an indoor TT?
One rider is not the entire team, well if she's a rookie at least....Cutters might argue with that....
One may argue with all the 1st place trophies awarded to Cutters as well I'd imagine? Good for the Army women going up and competing that's awesome and it's only going to make the women's race more competitive! I think if all the Little 5 teams put a conscious effort into IUCC they could seriosuly put something special together this year!
I agree whole-heartedly with the above post. Training and racing on the road only makes L5 riders stronger. And, to reiterate a previous question, WHO had the pretty spin?!
Go Bob Go! Full Gas, brrrrnnnnn chk brrrrrnnnnn (ferrari changing gears).
Todd Neville has the pretty spin.
Matt Witt has the pretty spin
Tom Crean has the pretty spin.
Hannah Calvert is going to out-sprint Eric Young during Spring Break
Just because you can mash a 6 mile TT in big gears doesn't mean you can out spin anyone on the track.
I know who doesn't have a pretty spin.
who?
Sigma Chi has pretty outfits. They have pretty faces as well. Lets see if their Ivan Drago training facility can match up against my Balboa shed out by monroe.
Todd Neville
This is why I always sign in.
Todd you look like a penis.
