As it turned out, I found out later in the week that the timing company had rushed the results out because people were wanting to leave (many already had, as some of us have families and jobs we have to attend to) and they had bumped me to third in the GC when I was actually fourth and Rebecca Frederick was 3rd. I did end up returning my cash to Mike who forwarded it on to her, but hey, at least I got some good pictures out of it.
But honestly one of the best parts of Sundays at the Stage Race is the Huffy toss. That damn bike weighs upwards of 60 pounds and I could barely drag it up the hill much less get any distance out of it. My attempt was somewhat weak, but Mike Festa's was weaker:
Kuhn had these really cool wooden medals made for all of us who did all three stages. Here we are (the ones that were left late Sunday) sporting our medals: "3 days/3 stages/one badass - me"
Anyway, the weekend was a ton of fun and I'm looking forward to doing it again next year. The Stage Race is fun not only for the racers but for their whole families, so really I don't understand why more people from my team don't do it.
Anyway, here is the link once again to all of the pics, enjoy. And come out next year and join us.

I may not have thrown it very far... But my baselayer/wife beater shirt and single white glove (in tribute to the late Michael Jackson on the date of his death) won the style competition.
Actually my favorite part about that video is your wife saying, "don't embarass me," then calling you a "dufus" and you exclaiming, "let's see you do any better. " Ah, married life. Good stuff.
