I've never heard of or ridden with Todd N. but I'd like to.  Anyone faster than Brad K is probably a Pro?  Has anyone raced against him before?  I'm not trying to call him out but geez that is fast.

Watch for updates here:

I keep waiting for Bart G. to post a time.

Since Todd's made a stir with his sub 10 minute Clark's TT, and I know him, I posted a little something about him:

Bart G. mentioned that he wants to take a run at the Clarks TT and I'm curious where he'll land. Come on down Bart!

I'm not a climber, but all this fuss makes me want to give it a try. Next time I'm in Utah, I'll have to have one of y'all show me where to go.

Am I the only one detecting a smidge of '"tude" from that Todd guy?

I read KKs post about him then linked to Todd's own Clarks TT post and to be honest, my ego detector is pegged.

I'm impressed with the time, but calling out the Pro ICUP guys on the site and then posting about how the TT was after 30 miles and on a recovery day. Hmmm, that doesn't exactly drip of humility in my book. Sorry Rick, but I disagree, this is NOT a guy that I think I'd want to ride with no matter how fast he is.

Todd, I hope you read this, you are apparently very talented, but remember no matter how fast you are, someone's always faster.

It really bugs me that the whole vibe of that blogsite has been easy going, with people encouraging each other and joking in a self-deprecating way, and now it seems it's heading towards smack talking.

Whoh, anonymous, I only just noticed your post, and would like to respond. Please do not take my Clarks TT description the wrong way. I was in no way trying to boast, but simply make pre-excuses for the eminant ass kicking I would receive from riders I know all too well are much faster than myself.

As for a rest day, I did not mean to say that I treated the TT as a restful ride, I simply meant that I was planning to rest, but instead was tempted into doing the TT at full blast.

As for the term "pro", I was not calling anyone out, but simply stating that I didn't think anyone on the current time list was really making a living at racing MTB.
