I got up early today. A first of sorts. I’ve been laying around the house allowing the meds to wear off in their own time before I put progress into the day. It was a voluntary hiatus after school got out. Now, it’s time to tune the bikes. The boys are going racing this weekend so I’ve got a garage full of carbon TT weaponry needing a once over. It feels good to turn the wrenches again. Even on TT bikes. I should have been a mechanic on a team for a while. Somewhere where I don’t have to ask if they want prader or schresta.

Subject: Liz said what? not a word merchantHottie still but this is just a stupid idea for a movie and a stupid movie. Watching bikes go up hill is ok like for 3 days in july when dudes do it. but sitting down to watch Liz Hatzh tell us nothing about nothing on a nothing ride. she is a dumb as Frankie Andreau Mix in a noun and verb or some sort of ride or just show us your tits for fuck sake.
I got half way through this clip and thought WTF is this about? She likes riding? An add for the Uber Pork Stork bike. I am over this chick. Nice gal I am sure and hot etc bblah blah
Look at me I am hot and I ride but I am really a thoughtful rider who is blazing the trail for future women cyclists?, “cut.. add.. enter dude looking at my ass at a traffic signal”…. gay
For the record, I have no idea what Liz just said, and I don’t care. Her legs are very nice.
It doesn’t matter what Prejan is say’n either.

I believe Carrie Prejan has a bitchin body. Morality comes in all forms I guess. Her form is as good as any.
She is on form. no doubt. no doubt in my mind.
It’s Friday, you know what to do.

“and I think that even if it doesn’t necessarily happen for me, but I somehow.. along.. with..someone else out there, that’s racing, help to allow..future generation, then, you know?, I think that can only be a good thing” – man, that segment was up there with Miss Teen South Carolina!
May 15th, 2009 at 1:18 pm
aw jeez! why the hate? she’s just like the rest of us; just a squirrel trying to crack a nut.
May 15th, 2009 at 1:36 pm
This chick is retarded, but I’d hit it.
May 15th, 2009 at 2:16 pm
Gee-nome: glad to hear you are feeling the love twiddling the knobs on the chrono bikes. I reckon you would have made a good team mechanic, but don’t be thinking it is a breeze compared to the shop. There may not be any presta vs. schrader, instead there is: deeps vs. shallow, 53, 54, or 55, get the pump again for the more bars in the rear than the front staredown, ‘can i warm up on the trainer with the disc?,’ ‘can we take out the water bottle cage bolts?’…
An older wiser mechanic told me ten years ago when i started this nonsense that ‘the time trial is a competition for the staff more than it is for the riders.’ True that. Special helmets, aero bottles, unload the trainers…jeesh. While you are at it, go ahead and check the dimensions on your bikes and aero bars. Starting July 1, the UCI will be enforcing the rules for frame and bar dimesions. Hope your team stuff passes when the day comes.
‘Presta or schrader sir?’
May 15th, 2009 at 2:19 pm
OK I am on the record here some months ago for rubbing it out to this chicks pics..
But, can she speak in the past and future tense at all?
A fucking documnetary about her vanilla personality and Palinesq really, wana coulda gonna shoulda….has me in shrinkage
What is this about? Her desire? He ability? Her hotness? Is it about the sport? Is it about cycling? It is certainly not about her results.
So we have a hot cat1 in the US
cyclefilm Ripping off the Collective with the opening too
this is about the stupidest thing in cycling in a long time
May 15th, 2009 at 2:25 pm
Carrie is hot
This cunt Sarah Palin thinks it is the Liberals who oppose nuduity? ““The liberal onslaught of malicious attacks against Miss Californias nudity” Palin said
unbelievable
May 15th, 2009 at 2:32 pm
Liz just showed at our little neighborhood crit in Charlotte a few weeks ago. She is a cutie.
May 15th, 2009 at 2:42 pm
She would look better with about 10 cc of baby batter on her face….i agree, show us your tits and STFU…..if that the TOMMEKE, TOMMEKE, TOMMEKE soundtrack?
May 15th, 2009 at 2:44 pm
thanks ugly. I guess the movie is about how cute she is.
May 15th, 2009 at 2:53 pm
God I feel sorry for her watching it. Are we supposed to feel some sort of new vibe in the industry
Cycling has taught her what to eat when to eat and where to ride in the wind?
She needs a publicist to filter shit for her now and tell her when to say no. And perhaps script her topics so she atleast has one when she speaks.
What was her major in College? Womens Studies?
May 15th, 2009 at 3:00 pm
BOD, That’s how I’d have watched the video. I don’t think Storck’s selling heart valves – don’t need a PhD to push products in the bike biz. I’m just happy she did my crit and hope she and the Vanderkitties come back to Dilworth next year. I won’t ask any math questions if she looks good, rides fast and smiles a lot. That’s three things she is good at and maybe that separates her from the rocket scientists in the main pack.
May 15th, 2009 at 3:13 pm
I just did a guest spot on a nationally syndicated TV show to talk about my company’s lasers. 10 million people saw me look like a monkey talking on a subject I actually know a lot about. Some folks including myself just ain’t cut out for tallking in front of a camera.
May 15th, 2009 at 8:27 pm
are you saying she sounds like a monkey talking about herself?
if it is a planned Docudrama atleast script some shit to say.
are you saying that her only options for a buck are on her bike or on her back?
the liz hype is tired.
word
May 15th, 2009 at 8:34 pm
Yea no shit this is a made for the DVD shelf movie pimped all over facebook. they better recall and reshoot because she just killed herself like Sarah Palin.
I expected to her her say ” I can see Mt. Ventoux from my house” or some shit

May 16th, 2009 at 9:35 am
What’s up with all you d-bags cutting down Liz? Whattayou expect from any athlete? The Gettysburg Address? Isn’t it enough that she is an attractive, enthusiastic, down to earth newcomer to the sport? Why does she need a script or a publicist?
Would you prefer more “spin” like what we get from those 2 fucking robots-”Saint” Lance Livestrong or Levi “Whiner” Leipheimer?
Go back to jerking off to your autographed photos of Tyler Hamilton and leave Liz alone.
May 16th, 2009 at 9:45 am
The real shame is that Ms. Prejean ruined her natural beauty
with dumb ass pagent subsidized fake boobs. I really think our American
desire for bigger things will be the end of us. Bigger cars, bigger houses,
bigger food portions, and bigger body parts.
May 16th, 2009 at 11:06 am
Hey ugly, I may have asked you before, what kind of lasers do you build? I spent time in the laser industry, industrial YAGs and sealed-CO2s and semiconductor process tools. Lasers were cool, but it’s a surprisingly mature technology and it’s hard to make a living selling them. Focusing eight kilowatts down to a 0.002″ spot and hogging through 1/4″ steel never got old, though!!
May 16th, 2009 at 1:51 pm
…whether ya like miz hatch & how she expresses herself or not (& knowing her personally a little, i think she’s both straight up & pretty fucking cool) just go back n’ look at all the background scenery that i’m sure ya missed in that video…
…that, motherfuckers is where i get to play on my bikes…on those roads & all over the hills on my cross rig…
…salute’…
May 16th, 2009 at 3:08 pm
liz makes cycling look sexy regardless of what comes out of her mouth. i can’t blame her for using her ass-ets to make a buck. if she had spoken lucidly you guys wouldn’t be listening. she admits to being a newcomer to this sausagefest of a sport, and clearly you guys already know everything…so don’t purchase or watch her video.
May 16th, 2009 at 3:12 pm
I doubt that I’ll purchase her vid. No offense of course.
There have already been a lot of hot girls in the ladies peleton and as with them, I just appreciate her for work’n it too. The vid has no relevance to her.
The ladies are where it’s at.
May 16th, 2009 at 4:36 pm
way ahead of you Lauren. and yea there are people here who do know quite a bit and post anonymously. you might be surprised too
The industry hype over her is the problem. Making her something she is not is a problem for her. is this video supposed to imply that she adds significance to the sport?
however some assume this is her idea. If it is her idea to make this stupid fucking video then it is her problem
ladies cycling is dead and always will be and this video or Liz Hatch doesn’t do dick to help. no pun intended
that is the most ridiculous thing I have seen in this sport in a long time. and she is not that new to the sport either. It is like she or they are making shit up
if it has no revelance then why so much effort or better question is why so much production value into what is supposed to be a ride. she doesnt even sweat and the glam ride through a secret garden in the opening is lame.
I love Liz but everything aout this is just wrong
show us something. tell us something. we will buy.
May 16th, 2009 at 4:41 pm
Oh and I would eat Carrie’s toejam
May 16th, 2009 at 5:20 pm
@large- yeah it’s a cheesy overdone video, but as you said this probably isn’t her idea and she surely isn’t responsible for the production. there are cheesy overdone videos out there for anything you can think of, and now there is another one for cycling. big deal. is there really a lot of production value?…these days it seems like anyone can be a filmmaker.
i don’t think that the target audience includes the typical DC blog reader. maybe some suburban housewife will see how adorable liz is and that will inspire her to want to start riding a road bike. and i know you are disgusted when liz talks to you this way, but maybe for the suburban housewife it sounds just fine. and i know you’d probably rather not have them become part of the spandex community. but just think- if you can get them off zoloft and on a bike, they are far less likely to run you over in their SUVs when you are out for your long sunday ride.
May 16th, 2009 at 5:29 pm
shoesmoker (or whatever you call yourself) Governor Palin never said that she could see Russia from her house. That was the “comedienne” on the late night show. What the Governor said was that you could see Russia (a former-and mark my words, future-adversary) from the state that she governs; the point being that as Commander in Chief of the Alaska National Guard she has more leadership experience than your pinup boy and “president” Barack Hussein Obama. But take shit out of context and misquote to your heart’s content. It seems to be one of the few things your lot is good at.
And large and “fit”, you got kids? Any of them girls? Guess they’ll be glad to know their ol’ Dad thinks their place is in the back of the bus. Word of advice: Vasectomy. Because some people just shouldn’t breed.
May 16th, 2009 at 5:31 pm
Oh, and lauren, excellent point. The production values are head and shoulders above the drivel produced by those fat shitbags Algor and Michael Moore. Doesn’t matter if they are “documentaries”. They at least shouldn’t suck ass as films.
May 16th, 2009 at 9:53 pm
all roads lead to liberals for davey boy.
attacking people and ignoring process davey boy
you are even talking to the wrong guy here
but for you and my boy butthead i googled it and looks like he got nine tenths of it right. drop the word nudity and it is dead on word for word.
Production…hmm the point is if you are going spend all that time with all the glam and fake a ride then atleast spend a few minutes with a topic and organized thoughts
Butthead keep drinking and posting some of the funniest shit ever on here man
So to you and lauren, large and fit is sexist AND a liberal? hey davey lauren said “housewife” as in barefoot prego in the kitchen with yellow ribbons on her minivan fucking the gardner house wife.
ironic no?
cool chick? yes. good rider? yes. hot as hell? yes (man hands and adams apple included) yes.
May 17th, 2009 at 4:21 am
shoesmoker (or whatev), it was indeed you who referenced the alleged Palin “quote”. I simply provided the correct information. You’re welcome.
May 17th, 2009 at 7:15 am
@shoey please don’t accuse me of calling people “sexist” or “liberal.” i pretty much agree with large and fit…i just think liz’s little video is getting blown way out of proportion and everyone is paying attention because a hot girl is riding a bike.
May 17th, 2009 at 7:34 am
Oh, and shoesmoker (or whatever), sexism abounds throughout the political spectrum.
May 17th, 2009 at 7:59 am
lauren has a point and said what i didnt say. anyone can make a movie these days and maybe that is the problem here. twitter nation = not a word merchant and we are all guilty.
hot chick, good rider who is capable of good smack. her old myspace was full of smack down on riders and industry stuff but she has lightened up since all the hype. her music playlist on that old page was the shit too. I wish she would have brought that out in the vid. whoever made this this didnt take the time to tell us something we don’t know about her is the real problem. she has gone Pop one might say
I remember her smack At one point she called out George Hincape for never attacking in classics and said Trek bikes suck which was large. it has since been deleted from her myspace I think.
just keep it real Liz. that is all we ask and this was a disappointment.
May 17th, 2009 at 3:57 pm
This is why this site is genius
People saying what is on their mind and not giving a fuck
Well some don’t give a fuck
Some of you guys are just funny and demented and get peeps to bite
Wasn’t shoeyshoemoker a dave zubrisky joke or his nickname
Do you think? Naaa couldn’t be
Twitternation? Fucking brilliant
May 17th, 2009 at 4:18 pm
I will go out on a limb and say that guys like large and fit breed well and often but use condoms. I guess that makes him a liberal
I suppose it is better than watching the neocons eat their young
Something tells me that Liz leans left. She might not be able to tell you so or why or how but it is all good under that hood regardless
May 18th, 2009 at 10:29 am
‘I can see Mt. Ventoux from my house’
Holly shit I spit coffee all over the monitor and keyboard and white shirt. you have to start warning us about this stuff
Big Jonny and Gnome you have some sick friends here. I love it. funny funny shit you guys are fin crazy. I want to ride and party with you all.
This site is killing it with the whit
May 18th, 2009 at 10:42 am
I think Liz may have jumped the shark. Dunno.
May 18th, 2009 at 2:29 pm
Can I go on record as not giving a fuck?
May 19th, 2009 at 10:04 am
dogmaticdave, clearly you give a fuck about alot of stuff and if you have to tell us you don’t, you do. you just know you cant compete so you go to the appathy card
‘neocons eating their young’….dude wow that is so good I don’t think he will get it..omg talk about getting over. touche motherfucker touche
Gnome are you saying that even The Fonze would think this she lame now?
hahahahahaha save the last word for Gnome. Did you minor in TV/Film?
March 15th, 2010 at 9:56 pm
I just found your blog on Google. Great article. Thanks for taking the time to share this.
