Positive

Things are looking really good right now, even though I did skip class to go ride today, haha. I hate missing class, but it was well needed, and also well worth it. I also got some more great news from my Calculus class, which would be that I received a 94% on my 3rd test. The average was somewhere around 40% so this means a huge curve will be placed on it. Anyhow this shows me I have made a good choice in my career path, and only need a 42% on the final to get an A. All the work and sacrifice paid off, even though I really do miss training everyday for 3 hours and racing with my friends and teammates. Soon enough though fellas. OK, time for work kiddies. Yippee!!!

Fuck the freeze and the breeze

Now I do not know how many people ventured outside today for more than 10 minutes at a time, but I did something very different than most. With no end of the rampage of snow in sight I chose to just have a go for as long as possible. Well it was a pisser of a day, and I mean wretched. I ended up spending 2 hours getting pummeled by the snow and wind. I can not remember the last time I was standing at a stoplight and almost got blown over, but to say the least I was alive and able to ride, so it was a good day. Anyhow, it is almost 2 am and I have to be up in 4 and a half hours for school so I am out. Get bent man!!!!

off season blunders

So I realize that my offseason preparation has been very lackluster and I am finally understanding why. This offseason I have had a serious lack of motivation, cracked a bone in my pelvis falling on ice, and had mono which later turned into walking pneumonia. Good news is that I am on the mend though, and back to riding nearly every day. I notice form coming along very quickly, but will need to race soon to salvage the season. After next Thursday it will be smooth sailing for a bit and I will be putting in some punishing rides and hours. I know that I have let some teammates down by not racing collegiate, but I need to worry about me first, not anyone else. So that is that and if they have a problem with it then so be it. I have kinda realized cycling is not life, it is something 99.9% of us riders do for excitement and a little competition. So chill, and take er easy!
