To: All Crack O’ Dawn Riders Subject: A Good Offense Okay, here is THE story of the week. Better to hear it from me. It would get out anyway. ;-) It was 6:15 am and we were gathered at a table in the dining room of a Best Western hotel, five of us. It was another cold morning among many cold mornings. At the table were Dave McElwaine, Theresa Siegel, Elizabeth Wicks, Jeri "biker chick" from LA, and me. We pretty much hung out together all week and were just shooting the shit, waiting for the buffet to open. Somehow the conversation turned to comfortable sleeve design and the topic of a princess cut sports bra came up. Dave and I were stupefied, so Jeri showed us. At that, I stood up to show the flat stitching of my Pearl Izumi shorts, which I naively though were "sort of" princess cut. Thinking I had long pants on over my biking shorts, I lowered my waist band. I was wearing leg warmers... We laughed so hard, we cried and, at times, during the following days, we would break out laughing just at the thought. There, now you've heard it. Looking forward to seeing you on the roads, Bruce |
To: All Crack O' Dawn Riders Subject: Re: A Good Offense Hmmmm.......here is the rest of the story. First, it was Theresa who set us straight as to what a "Princess seam" was. Then Bruce jumped up and said "You want to see a Princess Seam?".......which was followed by the "Full Monty". Both Elizabeth and Jeri claimed they did not see "it". Bruce was offended that they seemed to be implying that a magnifying glass may have helped. Bruce later said he was worried that he may have ruined Theresa's marriage forever. She assured Bruce that it was more solid than ever! I tried (by a show of hands) to get all the Boston riders to take a pledge never to mention this "Princess seam incident" back home. Everyone raised their hand to take the pledge except Elizabeth who said "I am not agreeing to that!" Thus......Bruce decided to go on the offense since she could strike at any time. It was truly one of the funniest things I have ever seen. I laughed so hard my sides hurt. --Dave |
