Both hands on the wheel. 10 and 2. Especially in the rain.

You could put your money on the messenger....

You could...or you could just flush it down the toilet. It's all the same, really. Desperate times call for desperate measures. And desperate measures call for clutch hitters. And when it comes to knocking down a pint in 1.376 seconds, the Shrinking Man is clutch. Pacesetter had three wins in three days going into the post US100k TourDeCatur. Big Poppa brought down a W in the West Oak masters race on Saturday (and unfortunately he's got the t-shirt to prove it). Super Pooper won the Pro/Semi-Pro mtb race in Chattanooga on Sunday (and a Hello Kitty backpack to go along with it)...and TAdams took first place (out of the money) at the US100k NRC on Monday... with a fine 36th place. So in rolls the TourDeCatur, and Colby was looking like he was in danger of losing the King of the Cougars jersey. No sooner than it was thought, it was done. Philpot ran off with the goods. Unfortunately for Colby, he ran off with the cougar too. Pacesetter quickly shifted the game plan to focus on the sprinters jersey (a black GA Cup t-shirt, as it turns out). As you'll see, Shrinking Man stepped up and delivered. Some considered him an underdawg. Not this amateur. Unbeknownst to the tall, skinny, messenger that thought he won (even though he still had half a glass of beer left), this thing was over before it started. Word to the wise. If you don't do it all by yourself, the Shrinking Man WILL make you look silly. Most of us "forgot" how to do this somewhere around the second semester of our junior year in college...if not high school. Shrinking Man isn't "most of us". Watch and learn.
