Gossip!
On the mend.
Like a phoenix from the ashes. I’m coming around. — Check out this nastyness, the swelling has gone down soooo much. — Thanks for all the comments and emails. Even the doctors agreed, I had it bad. Blame it on stress, travel and shaving your legs. Total fluke infection but, my immune system was stressed [...]
6 days no bike. Final doctor's visit.
Now I am anxious. The weather is badass right now, pissing rain in typical NW fashion. Pretty exciting eh? This was removing and then repacking new gauze into the incisions a few days ago. — I am sick of the couch and movies and fevers. My leg has been packed full of gauze and swollen [...]
ANTWERPSE SCHELDT CROSS, WORLD CUP AND INDOOR ZOLDER HASSELT CROSS, ARMSTRONG INTENDED TO START
Seriously? If we do see Lance at the Antwerpen race this winter it will be at the expense of few dozen other Euro renners. Something to think about: at the Euro races everyone negotiates start contracts. The big stars like Nys and Boom pulling more money to start a race than you can imagine. With [...]
I'm out.
Damn! Not spider bites. I’ve been fighting Folliculitis since Starcrossed. I got a bad fever and chills on Friday night. And a few giant abscesses got really infected and swollen. By Sunday I had trouble walking. So Pete drove me down to the immediate care hospital and the doctor cut holes in my leg, used [...]
coffee. round three.
Waiting to race. So, I’ll be posting up some photos from yesterday. We made some cornbread that called for flaxseed oil and all Jen could find were the pill supplements so, she cut open the little capsules and we squeezed out enough to use! I went on a spin and saw this old-timey water tower. [...]
Throttled!
Ouch! Got my behind handed to me today in Wisconsin. I salvaged a 9th place finish behind the Lalonde bros. the Wells bros. and co. Jon Page won, I barely stayed ahead of the 2 U23 Euro riders and I think the Swiss Mueller got 2nd. Apparently Jon Baker dropped out with an injury but [...]
Wisconsin.
Really, the last 30 seconds are the best 30 seconds: I am in Wisconsin. Sun Prairie to be exact. Staying at Dan (of Planet Bike fame) and Jen Powell’s house! It is very nice. Dan is still at Interbike, Jen is at work. I am putting my bikes together and working on work and more [...]
If you are not amused…
…well, give it 48 seconds: I stayed at my dad’s house in Puyallup last weekend and I got to sleep with a cat on my belly all night. My favorite part is how many babies get taken out by cats. How about the next fun part: Who wants to guess how much it will cost [...]
Starcrossed and Rad Racing GP-first UCI action of the season.
Tonkin and I on our way to NOT getting in the top ten. I did a decent ride at Starcrossed. I faded pretty hard with 4 to go. Shannon and someone else got me with 2 to go and that was it for the top ten. 11th place. Again. With my guts in knots and [...]
I like electro, I like ghetto, I like retro, house and techno…
This one has been making the rounds on the internet. I don’t believe in separating politics and sport. — I need new music on my ipod. —
