Wheeling and Dealing



After some serious searching, a little craigslist swapping, some extra hours at work, and hiding out in the basement (or as my wife calls it, the compound), new hoops were the first order of business. Figure they can be put on the schwinn come spring time. As Gus would say "these are TIGHT!". Speaking of which, the crazy brazilian is back. His 3 week adventure back home with family is over and he is back. You'll be seeing him at a cross event near you sometime soon. Mansfield CT is the idea for saturday. Figure test out the wheels and my severe lack of fitness. Weather, work, mother-in law and the 5 month old (but thats ok) have hampered every single ride this week. Course description? no idea. Doesn't matter all that much, I plan on achieving new levels of suckage. Should be fun to see if I can put a new spin on coming in last place. If the weather holds true, sunny and potentially in the mid-50's, these will be perfect days for cross. Hope to get three more races in before time and money run out. Then it will be recharge time and winter evenings on the trainer or rollers, whatever i don't fall off first. Time to track down some cider donuts...power circles! Thanks ESC for the bike.
