The roof is done....and i am in atlanta to help the old man with his house. i have to repair the roof as there was shingle blow off. he wants me to also do PVC trim around the windows and house, as well as gutter repairs. we have to also install two screen doors, tile a foyer and paint two rooms. not to mention other things as well.
i wont post much more till i am home.

OOOOH shit. i even have gutters on that bitch.

border battle

As of late, i have been neglecting the house again and have been back on the bike. Here is a recap of what has happened in the last few races.

BORDER BATTLE

the border battle was a blast of an event.

it was near the twin cities, and as a result, i rode out there with maciej and schutte. what a fucking blast of a trip it was. it was like being in the firehouse, only in the confines of an auto. maciej came out swinging on the way and well needless to say it was one of the best trips i have had in a car for some time.

the race was great, i had some bad ass legs and was able to finish 4th overall behind the respectable Joe Curtes. there were two others that were a touch ahead of us, and by the looks of it, i should be in a great state to take a win at rhinelander as i have the first wave start and Joe not being there. i would still like to beat Joe fair and square, as i will still have two shots to do so.

Races

AAAhhhhh yes.  this is the time of year when either you are getting faster, or you are getting slower.  fortunately i am on the upswing for once in my life.  i cant count the number of years i have been on the downswing at this point in summer.  

i have to thank the busy spring that i had with school, and of course the hurricane house.  now i am riding and well i am finding more speed.  i am lacking on the endurance, but in all i am on decent form.  

Races

as far as the races have gone, i took fourth and third at the last wors races respectively.  i also won my first time trial at crystal ridge.  that was cool as shit.  lead the whole thing.  

i have found that it is cool to get in front and be the aggressor and well make others chase. 

PROPS.

i have to give props to the new riding partner James L. sick fast happens in his blood and it is good that we can push each other at times.  hopefully we can both get a bit faster...maybe we will bring maciej along for the ride as Ronsta is broke.

until later.

Sponsors

well it is that time of year that we are looking for sponsors. i feel very confident that cannondale and FDL will be on the ticked for 2008. this will be the first year in four i believe that we will have c-dale back as a title sponsor. very exciting.
we also have met to redesign the jersey and shorts. i think that the ideas that were brought up will be great, and i am excited to see what the proofs will look like.
with me, training has begun for the season, and i am trying to ride to work and home with greater frequncy, that will probably be the greater portion of training.
i will keep all posted on the developments here of the hurricane house, dubbed so by the mailman, as i have not had a roof on for 3 maybe 5 months now.
