Okay, I am back after not posting for a few weeks…..sorry about that! To be honest I was cracking on the entire bike racing thing after the Georgia ass cutting debacle!  I did not even want to look at my bike let alone talk about it on some website plus who wants to hear about my ass anyway.

After taking a handful of days and hanging out at home in Colorado with my teammate Scotty and his girlfriend Emily I am currently in New Mexico bleeding out of my eye balls at the Tour of the Gila.

I am in a way starting my season over…..and believe it or not am starting to like riding again…which I actually thought was impossible!!!  Hopefully my new combination of soaps and chamois cream will work but I guess only time will tell.

Anyway, I wanted to say thanks to Scotty and Emily for making me smile a few times and being the third wheel while I was back at home in my depressed state.  I also wanted to wish Emily a speedy recovery after taking a nasty fall desceding a mountain.  She is a tough girl and will heal up quickly.

Time for me to go eat some ice cream….I did say I am starting my season over but I am not in the watch what I am eating phase yet!

later, g.
