Mr. Carlisle, do you ever call your fellow racers geeks, nerds, or kittens like you do to your students? That would be a good line right as you pass someone. "See you later nerd, I've got essays to grade."

My god that is a lot of spandex



Were you in this video...? Sorry, I didn't see you :(
Or maybe I did, I don't know. Did you upload this video? Or was it some other person?

Uh, upload? What's that? I'm not in the video I don't believe. Someone else made this. Spandex, yes, lots and lots of spandex.

upload means that you put something up on the web (ie as in like, videos on youtube or whatever).

Look, I admit it- I am jealous because I can't rock the spandex.
Last year I was thinking of trying for a full spandex ski outfit at the State debate tournament but Mom said no.

I know what upload means you kook! I think you should wear full body ski suit to school everyday.

Wow that is pretty intense Carlisle! I liked it when that guy fell at the end trying to ride his bike over the barrier instead of carrying it! It was funny! Yeah I like what Joseph said, you should try that sometime!

I would be terribly claustrophobic, biking so close to all those people. And your bikes have to have, what, aluminum frames or something for you to carry them like that!

But seriously, major gold stars to you for doing this, you beast!

Thanks for your kind words Rebekah and Alex!

The race usually stretches out and doesn't feel that close when in your in the thick of it.

Oh. Sorry, it's hard for Narintohn to interpret sarcasm in text sometimes. This is why Narintohn favors the spoken word over the written word.

I would wear one, but I resist out of concern for my classmate's eyes (and minds).

hahahhahahahaha ok you're either the chick in the beginning standing there in the helmet watching everyone race or the guy 12 seconds later knocking everyone down on the muddy hill hahaha hope your race this weekend goes better than that one.

Narintohn, Alexander doesn't like it when people speak in 3rd person when they shouldn't. I wish that Narintohn would stop. (By the way, if you had worn the ski suit to State, you might have been protected from the soda spray).

This race is intense! If I had any athletic ability, I would think about maybe standing there cheering people on!

I like spandex.
Ours is different than yours I believe, though.
Maybe a little shorter.
And without the pretty -colours-, I mean colors.
Except that I have some pink camo ones.

Do you wear pink camo spandex, Carlisle?

Blogger luangrath said...

Stop it Allie, I don't want that image in my head!!

Sorry Carlisle, I mean, I'm sure you can rock the spandex but pink camo ones...I just don't want to go there

I don't even get why pink camo was invented. There is no way it helps someone go undetected, except maybe in a flower patch. I don't think it was the army's idea.
