Wowzers

When you have cool sponsors, you get cool things.




Presenting my snazzy new Oakley Jawbones. These eye candy are Marian Uni. colors. How cool is that?! 

Fortunately they are also Pacers colors. On the other hand they are, unfortunately, Pacers colors



Smooches!

Horrifying!

Just saw that six people found my blog by searching for "horrifying images" and eight by searching for "Joseph Kukolla". Sooooo... cool.

Moorseville Crit



Puffer. He'll sit on you.


Chad. He'll light you up.


Just wrote this for the team. Enjoy.


It ended up being a nice day so Chad and I decided to ride to the race from home. After getting to the race, Chad Puffer and I devised a diabolical and ingenious race strategy. Make it "hard as balls". So that's what we did.

After an onslaught of attacks from Birdman and Puffdaddy (30 mins in) I countered on top of the hill and flew the coop. After being joined a lap later by Nuvo (JJ), Panther (Hamilton) and Marian (Danny) we quickly established a sizable gap from the field. For the next few laps I floated the break in hopes of being joined by Chad and/or Puffer. We were eventually informed that there was a chase group a few dozen seconds behind (w/Chad). It was apparent that JJ and Hamilton didn't want this group to catch so as we were lapping the main field(w/Puffer), I launched an attack and yelled at Puffer to get booking. Puffer's and my attack seemed to work momentarily but a little later my breakaway compatriots caught back on.

Before I knew it, they were giving us two laps to go. It caught us all by surprise, which I knew didn't give JJ much more time to attack and it was pretty obvious that he wanted to go before the sprint. With one to go JJ went on the offense on the hill. But there was no way that he was going to break loose of Puffer's (Hitler-esque) iron fisted grip. Going into the last 500 meters Puffer was leading it out and dropped me off at the perfect 300 uphill meters to go. As Ricky Bobby would say, "Slingshot engaged". I took the sprint by a proverbial mile, finishing off the team's incredible work. Chad decimated the chase group to grab fifth.

Then Puffer and I lit Chad up on the ride home.

The end.
