So I guess this means I'll have to compete against Papp in the local master's races when I move back to Pittsburgh?...he would surely be a strong rider, but I'll avoid riding anywhere near him on account of all the ???? people will probably throw at him. I don't imagine a half-full can of I.C. light feels too good bouncing off your dome at 30 mph.
