... starting with free internet at the Denver airport when you've missed your flight because of incompetent gate coordinators...
Another thing we love the week of a race... getting up at 4 am to fly out of Denver airport and THEN missing your flight...
...did I mention our love affair with TSA? Wait... yes, it's truly passionate...
Okay, now that I've shown my sense of dry, sophomoric humor it's time to get real... we promised to blog often and blog we will!
It's early on Thursday morning, Phil and I are at the airport hanging at gate A39 (if you are reading this in the airport come give us a shout). Late last night we heard that Jarred had a rough go of it. Well, that's not entirely true...
Jarred was dominating the race, catching four riders before the turn (including his minute man who would eventually place in the top 20). Clicking along with 6 miles to go he hit a rock and instantly went flat... he was stuck without a wheel (as they don't allow follow cars at Nationals) and wisely called it a day... I'm sure he'll update you/us later.
I think that's enough for now... it's time to get back to my real job and the client emails that are just begging reply... Ah yes, to the things we love...

Terrible shame about Jarred, Given the history of his wheels and flats on days of big time trials, I think some kind of prayer or ceremonial killing should be offered to the rubber gods before taking off at the start.
