Keeping Tempo: 2-5-09

Mmmm... smells like racing. Everything goes better with racing. Or is that bacon?

• If you like vintage pictures from the U Street Criterium, scanned in black and white newspaper photos of guys like The Muscle and Jay Moglia, want to try your hand at picking out racers in the break at a 1994 Tradezone race, you should check out Chris Schmidts Blogsite.
• Two deaths in competitive cycling were announced today. RayMan is not one of them.
• See the real-time attendee list for the MABRA BAR Party here, then get on it yourself by RSVPing.
• Ryan Dudek has a mess-o-photos from the Proteus Cross My Heart and the Super Bowl of Singlespeed Cyclocross race here. It was most excellent of the Proteus folks to stretch the season out a little longer.
• But it wasn't long enough for Idiot Cyvant, who is going through 'Cross Withdrawl.
• DCMTB has just announced their 2009 roster.
• There are over 80 members in the GamJams: Cyclists Hiring Cyclists LinkedIn Group, and some job postings as well. Join today, post any job where you might be able to help a fellow cyclist get a cleated shoe in the door, or let everyone else know if you're looking for work.
• Everybody knows that pre-reg for Tradezone (beginning 2/15) and the Snowball Criterium Series (beginning 2/22) are now open, right?
