March 5 Triscoop Review with Emily
Sunday, March 5, 2006 at 9:21PM Hey, tri-studs! Emily sat down with me on Friday evening and poured over Triscoop.com in great detail. This is definitely the Metrosexual episode... or the Aerosexual... We talked about leg shaving, speedos, even vasectomies (gives me chills). Cav pipes in from down under to give us his experience in the speedo-happy land of Oz.
The Kuwahara bill has pushed us into the red, so we had to cut short our 5k race we were going to do and go run on our own instead. This weekend was one of the greatest ever, with us swimming, running, and biking to our hearts' content. I think I'll record a 'cast tomorrow night about what all we did and how we did it.

I can't believe no one posted, so here we go:
1.) shaving thighs and speedos - A must. Otherwise it looks like you're trying to smuggle a Chia Pet.
2.) LBS - has ability to sub-total order before actually running the card.
3.) Co-Host - I bet you could get Scott Tinley or Dave Scott. Seriously.
4.) My wife votes 'yes' on shaved BODY. If you stop at just the 'shorts line', it looks like you're wearing Hair shorts when your naked.
Ride it like you stole it!!

Hey Brett,
Mid-Length time listener – first time poster. I was going to send an e-mail, but you always ask people to post on the blog if the message isn’t personal.
I just wanted to, once again, demonstrate the connectivity of the web and how what you are doing is reaching so far. I have been listening to your podcast for a few months now. I hear you talk about the Bryan Aquatics center and your struggle with getting bike lanes in and around the community.
A lot of that stuff resonates with me because I am a city council member in Billings, MT and we struggle with the same things. Getting trails in the community is always a tough sell and there is little money for trails. I could go on and preach to the choir, but I digress.
I’m at a conference of city officials and was sitting next to a council member from Bryan, TX yesterday. I was talking about your podcast to him because of all I hear about Bryan on your program. He, of course, had never head of a podcast, but actually seemed pretty interested to know that I listened to a podcast from his community.
For some reason I thought you would enjoy hearing this story. Also, if you get a chance, this may be an opportunity to go talk to your local elected officials. The council member I talked to was Mark Conlee. Here is a link to his site:

Hopefully he will be receptive to a semi-famous podcaster approaching him about more trails in the community. He should like to hear that your podcast is helping put Bryan on the map and helping you with more trails helps Bryan’s imagine in the country.
Keep up the good work. You are making a difference in your community, both the triathlete community and the community of Bryan.

Bret,
Scott B. here from NYC. Two things. First, you should always listen to your wife. Second, she doesn't know what she's talking about... It is perfectly reasonable - and fashionable - to wear running shorts over your running tights. Who wants to run around in just tights when you're not racing? Everybody in NYC does this in the winter - guys and girls. I even used to do this in Texas. So you should stand tall and run pround in your shorts/tights combo!
PS: Is this the right show to comment on? I can't remember...
Maybe I should give one of the Scotts a call...
The arm warmers look very cool, and I'm learning from others that it's actually bike-geek culture to throw on arm warmers instead of a jacket when you're a bit chilly and heading to the store or whatever. Nobody has the right to tease you about them. You're a triathlete and biked 50 miles this morning. Did they? No, they didn't. Ha!
I'll give that councilman a call. Bryan probably has zero bike lanes and no interest in putting them in. (I live in College Station)

Ok, I know this is late, but I'm really behind on listening to podcasts...
1. I'm a female listener (one of the only 3 perhaps?) Thanks for sticking up for us Emily.
2.)Male shaved legs is definitely sport-specific activity. Looks stupid if playing soccer looks hot if you're a swimmer, triathlete, cyclist. Also depends on how beefy your legs are. Too skinny= don't shave.
3. Speedos fall into same category as shaved legs.
4. Vasectomy- when you're done family planning, it's the best way to reintroduce spontenity back into your love life. Done on Friday back to work on Monday. I gave my husband one weekend of pampering and then kicked his butt out of the coach, removed the bag of frozen peas from his jewels,took the remote control out of his hand and told him to get back to work. And we're both much happier today. So grow up Brett!
