Living the dream!
Update from Pete in Spain parte cinco:
Happy birthday Peterson: “I got to spend my 30th birthday at a bike race and in the truck for a 15 hour ( 3 stops) drive to Lucca, Italy. Woo-hoo! The mechanic and I drove through the night to arrive here at 4:30 this morning. It looks like I’ll be sleeping on a pull out [...]
Tour of Ohio stage 1:
My redeye flight was brutal! No sleep, packed flights, delayed flights the usual. I got in to Cincinatti at 7am and sat for 2 hours before a 25 minute flight to Columbus. It would have been quicker if the OA van just came to pick me up in Cincinatti! I’ve got some photos but, the [...]
Packing for Tour of Ohio:
Thanks to my Tifosi sales rep I scored some new luggage. It is huge! I am going to be embarassed showing up in Ohio like Paris Hilton with tons and tons of luggage. Watched some sweet cycling footage over coffee with Brian and Steven. It is cool and cloudy this morning in Portland, nothing like [...]
Update from Pete in Spain parte quattro:

Update from Pete in Spain parte dos:
My ladyfriend is working as a soigner for the USAcycling women’s road team for a few weeks in Spain and Italy: “The team got a top ten today! It was pissing down rain (which I got to stand in and wait in the feed zone!) today and the finish was in the cutest, most beautiful [...]
Update from Spain!
“Here are some photos I took today. The biggish German looking guy sitting in the truck is the brother of Jan Ullrich. He mechanics for the Women’s German Ntl. team. We’ve been making friends. He spent the morning singing Stevie Wonder songs with a strong German accent. We had a 4k prologue today so not [...]
Pete in Italy, Molly to Ohio…
…my legs are apparently on vacation too. Raced the Rehearsal road race last weekend which was a joke. (on my part) I built up the Reynolds carbon clinchers and the result (paired with a very lightweight but very silly set of brake calipers) was the most horrendous sound you have ever heard. Ask anyone who [...]
