North Ave and 70th St.
Uncategorized July 22nd, 2006Guess what? I am doing laundry again. I really have no need to be doing laundy since I washed clothes a few days ago but it does give me an excuse to go to the internet gaming place across the street from the laundromat while still feeling productive.
The internet place across from the laundromat is called “The Portal” and it is a rather interesting hangout for gaming people. It is dark and cold which is great but I shit you not the majority of the people playing computer games in here are either albino or have not seen the sun weeks! Most of them have glasses with either a beard or some type of facial hair and say things such as “I made it to the dungeon but was unable to find the quest before I got killed by a druid!” They seem like nice people and if it is true that opposites attract than I am going to hang out here and look for a girlfriend!
Tonight is the biggest race of Superweek, The Great Downer Avenue Crit. I am looking forward to the race and defending the title from last year.
Last night was the Food Folks and Spokes crit in Kenosha which is always a fun race. My aunt Catherine, uncle Jim his wife Kay, and dad were there to watch which was nice. Hollywood ended up finishing fourth and I think I got last. I was happy with last place though because I rode hard and actually had good legs.
Lastly before I go I just wanted to inform everyone in the Milwaukee area that the Speedway Station Store on the intersection of North Ave and 70th St. is the best gas station in the area. They have 44oz fountain diet soda for only $0.84. That sounds awesome but it gets even better because they offer Diet Mountain Dew which is a rarity when it comes to fountain drinks.
