@BreckEpic All those people who said, “let’s do this together”. Then the first time their partner is in the hurt box, they just ride away…. Leaving them to suffer in solitude.

@KenSommer The one that is in my size and in stock.

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

@KenSommer Haha. Just trying to help Ken.

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

@Cyclingnewsfeed Curious about the health (wrist) implication of the new bar system in the event of a crash. And the legal outcome if something happens.

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

@angryasian I will be in Boulder Sunday. Wanna race?

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

@TrekTeamMatt I feel terrible for you. At least you are not in denial. God luck with being old.

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

@angryasian @BreckEpic You should publish the advice you gave me and document your next run so first timers can come prepared.

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

@joev3 Me too.

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

@Andrewrosch @EmmyBrem @EBjorling You know me too well. Fashion is a crime.

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

Apparently my loyalties are split. Both my mountain bikes have a @RockShox fork & dropper, @foxracingshox shock and @RideShimano drivetrain

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

@angryasian @BreckEpic @TrekRoadSpeed One of my life goals is to support others and @TrekRoadSpeed has a goal of beating me at the @BreckEpic. I think I can help him do that.

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

Tried to sign up for a training plan for @BreckEpic and @whatstodaysplan basically told me that I am screwed. Good thing my bike is dialed.

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

I have been thinking about training for months. Does that count for base miles?

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

@TheOuterRing I used to be terrible. Just graduated last fall to mediocre.

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

I have been thinking. Now that I am a mediocre cyclist, I really should be sponsored. I am now accepting applications.

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

@chdbrwn You should too.

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

I am considering a comeback.

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

@chdbrwn that is not me...

[Ben Coates @benmcoates]

Coldest day of the year and the heater in my car decides to go on vacation.
