Handing the UCI flag over to the US

CX Worlds in Koksijde is a big deal. Like the fucking Super Bowl or something. Next year, it will be held here in the US, in Louisville, a 90 minute drive from my house. Post race, they made a big deal of passing the UCI flag over to the US. I saw these pictures on Mark Legg’s Facebook page and he graciously gave me permission to post them here.

I wonder how Pat McQuaid felt about the flag being passed over to a female? It must be hard for him to contemplate how a female could be capable of handling such a big race.

A little bird told me “There’s a lot of old school men in the UCI and the race promoters are all a boy’s only club. It will take some time but Cyclocross is leading the way for women.”

It’s becoming a woman’s world now, so they better get the fuck over it.

I can’t wait till next year’s CX Worlds. Hopefully with Katie racing on familiar territory, she will kick some major ass. I will be there, cheering loudly.

  1. I miss Big Jonny.

    I like turtles.

    And fried chicken too.

    BTW, I’m alittlol drunk.

    That is all.

    Is that you John Wayne?

  2. …that WAS, in the end, a totally epic post considering how far & wide it ranged in content…

    …it started in all seriousness, embraced a lotta anger & vitriol from all sides & when logic was ignored, it then devolved into some crazy funny shit throughout but ultimately gianni grande’s ‘pothole & bleeding nose’ foto near the end set up little jar redux comment which just completely pushed it over the top…

    ‘our finest moment…” indeed…

    If I remember correctly it was me who bestowed the title of DC Turtle God upon you in that epic thread. When others wilted away it was you who stayed the course and carried the day to the 316 comments record. It was a life changing episode for me. So much that I morphed from Tony to Cap’n Tony in the process.

    So I think it’s time you changed your moniker to The Grand Turtle/Terrapin/Tortoise God of DC or “TripleT”.

    This comment is only slightly less retarded than the retarded horse comment I made in the epic post, which temporarily got the comments shut down. So, before I piss Gnome off and he lambastes me with some jive, I’ll shut it down.

    And here is something we all love:

  4. no need for lamb balisticing. And that historic 316 comment post makes me miss my little jar a ‘lil bit.

  5. Way cool. Could you tell if Pat McQuaid’s pants had larger pockets than usual for easily sliding large bundles of cash into surreptitiously?

    And where the fuck has Jonny gone?
