Hey everyone…..I am back after a short pre-midlife crisis.  Pretty much since my Tour de Georgia ass infection I have been miserable but I think finally I am starting to come good or at least I am happy and feel a lot better.  At the moment the team is in Pennsylvania (heart of Amish countrt) getting ready for the big 156 mile Philly race on Sunday which I really excited for!

So you might ask, what does one do during a pre-midlife crisis….well how about shaving my head (sorry mom…it actually looks sort of cool), running, plan the purchase of an rv so I can live in the mountains by myself, discontinuing blog updates, feeling completely miserable racing my bike and eating a lot of dessert! 

Anyway here are some pictures from Mt. Hood and of my latest Britney Spears impersonation.

DSC03096.JPG Haircut #2……I wanted to see what I would look like if I ever go bald a few years down the road.  It is a little less scary when you know what you are in for!

DSC03100.JPGLast but not least the finished product……what do you think…or as I would ask our soigneur Kaycee…does the new haircut make you want to sleep with me?  Thanks to Graham for shaving my head and to Omer for shaving it with the Bic Razor.

DSC03101.JPG Omer also got a haircut….which we found out at lunch this afternoon that his new look scares the Amish people!

Wish us luck at Philly on Sunday.

later,
