i got to go ride in the 2005 naccc (north american cycle courier championships). unsuprisingly, i didn't make it out of the qualifiers but it was great to see. there were some amazing riders there doing some insane shit on fixed gears. i took plenty of photos, 2/3rds of which are up on flickr.
i think it was pretty inspiring to just about everyone there. i had several conversations about how the event just made you want to turn it up a notch. i've finally got the track stand down but i can't skid for the life of me. seeing people go skidding down a hill and around the turn at the bottom has me majorly fired up to learn how to do that by the end of the summer.
