Cheq in!

Yeah baby! My check cleared too! So it looks like I made it in to the 2006 Chequamegon 40.

Dogwood Classic Recap

The race was awesome. Super suffer fest. I've never seen so many hills. The weather was perfect 40* at the start and 50* by the end. I did really well for myself. Stayed with the lead group the whole way until the last 10 miles. Got dropped twice and was able to fight like hell to get back on. After the third time I was cooked. Came in a few minutes after the lead group. All in all I was quite please with my performance. Clocked a top speed of 46 mph. More to come later. I'm dead!

Still waiting for results.

'On the Road Again'

Finally got outside for some real miles. Didn't clock a ton but it's a lot more and earlier than any year to date. I'll try to get some more in before I head down to the Dogwood Classic next Friday.

It's Back On!

After a week and a half off due to my training facilities being in an upheaval, and a bad cold, I'm back training. Boy does it feel good to be back on the bike. I was going crazy. I only have a week until the Missouri race. I think I might be a little behind schedule, which is ok, so I'll more than likely ride for the Minnesota contingent. Should be a good time.

So now that I finally got back on the bike maybe I'll go skiing tomorrow?...

FLOYD

First ToCA and now a great showing at Paris-Nice. I've got to say I'm not too surprised Floyd's doing as well as he is. All of Lance's disciples are doing really well. Well, except for Tyler. Though it seems riding for the 7 time Tdf champ has left a bad taste in their mouths to ride for anyone nowadays. Wouldn't it be nice to see an all American team. Don't get me wrong I was all for Team 7 Eleven back in the day, but we really have some great talent coming out of the states now. I know it's no secret, it's just fun to imagine how we'd crush EVERYONE!
