Back on my grind
Il Giro 2012
The TdF 2012 presentation is today. I guess Andy Schleck will get to see exactly how he gets to finish second this year. #Schlecknd
Back on the bike today too. I rode 2x at DivaCamp. One was a ripper of a CX ride through some outstanding Jeep trails. It included a 20 minute visit to the Paincave, which resulted in a burp...that really wasn't...know what I'm sayin'?
The second was a spin with Monteleone down into town and back. Pretty nice to just roll along in the S. Virginia countryside.
As for the ride tonight, the night/urban rides have started in West Columbia. A MTB/CX/Urban Assault bike is required, as is a good attitude and sense of humor. If you feel the need to pull out your junk, stay home and ride your trainer.
And here's the laatste ronde of the WC CX race from Plzen. Looks like a fun course...
Edit: And the driver who killed Dr. Matthew Burke back in February was convicted of Felony Manslaughter. Good on South Carolina for finally growing a set of balls! Hopefully this ruling will set precedent for other States to properly try, and convict, drivers who run down cyclists.

Glad to see that precedence for the Burke case. Horrible that six months after that a cyclist in Charleston was killed by an AT&T driver and let go with a fine.
If I were in the Charleston Solicitor's office, I'd re-visit the case now. It wouldn't be double-jeopardy, as the driver was never arrested for any crime concerning the "accident".
