The Blog Dog.
Oh where do I start? I am in Montery Califonia resting between stage 2,3 of the Sea Slaughter. I haven't been slaughter yet but I have taking the usual beating. I am focusing on the main UCI event on sunday and keepin it cool as I can untill Sunday. Erin and I are having a good time hanging at the race and whent to the legendary Montery Fish house last night with buds Nick and Captin Cadence.
My blog slacking was so Bad that "Popa" Ian call to check in to make shure I was still alive. :0
How a bout sorry? I have been a bad blogger as of late. :0
If I had to come up with excuses I would have no lack of material. The top 10
1. A loose wireless card,
2. Summerlike carribean breezes
3. Erin and have been beach walking,
4. No one likes to hear bad luck cry baby whining. ;)
5. I am tired...
6. A band of internet Gypseys hijacked my computer and downloaded viruses.
7. I have been out of the country.
8. That punk Nick Waite stold my computer charger.
9. There was no hot water or working stove in Puerto Rico not to mention wireless!
10. Riding is more fun!!!
Since I have some make up blogging to do I will just get up to speed quick.
Our team had Camp for a week in Solvang and we found out why Disco team comes here. The riding is cool and the climbs are huge. Allso it is like disney set for some dutch movie with all the cafe's windmills and gingerbread architecture. It probably makes the euro's feel at home. The bull dog was my favorite hang there. The coffee was super charged and I like my
coffee stong! Check it out.
Week 2 was spent in Rincon Puerto Rico for the Ultimate Dirt Challenge. This is a really fun race with 5 bands and it takes place next to a beach! I had a bad start and flat and finished 4th. Rats. I was going well in the middle.
Week 3 Curacao
I had a good race going for the first 3 minutes but then my tire split in half. I guess I hit some metal or somthing.
Before I knew it I was on the ground. Ouch. I got a wheel and fought back couragously to the 50's out of the 120 rider field. It is a shame they do give UCI points for being tough. I got my second flat, got a slow change and got back in the mix. I pushed to get back into my former spot. On the last lap I got too hot and faded. In my dizzie state I wrecked. It was a bad fall onto the left leg that had me rethinking my toughness. I kept going and eased back to speed to finish just a few spot out of the points. Dirty Rats. Cookie, Cookie, Cookie!!!
When the clouds of bad luck are thick I think of races I have won, how sweet is it when everything goes right? On top of the World!
I am going to keep cracking the wipp and working for good luck.
Until then, keep on keep'n on, your usually closer than you think.
