Quick thoughts...

I got to ride my bike for fun yesterday.

It was a blast.

Clinton Lake skills park, Cactus Ridge and Campground 3 loops.  Super fun.  I was actually ripping too (at least it felt like I was).  One section of Cactus Ridge is STUPID technical...cleaned it all, but barely.  I forgot how good of tech rider I am.  The handling skills have always been there, but the cardio is not, and definitely not right now.

Some other things...

People are starting to realize that MTB racing is dead around here.  After 2 years of yelling and half a year of not giving a fuck anymore, other people are finally realizing what I've been seeing for a long time.  We have 0 races scheduled for next year MTB-wise.  Z.E.R.O.  Whatever, not my problem anymore...

One thing I pride myself on is that I cut through the bullshit, period.  I don't care who you are, what your "title" is, when your were born, or how much money you have.  If other people did the same thing, then a lot of stuff in our world would be better off.  If you wanna step up and be a leader, then step up.  If you want things to change, then change them.  If you want to do something, then do it!

Don't die wishing you had done something or treated someone differently.

peace and riding!

See you in December!!!

Taking 15 hours of graduate credit...working 20 hours a week at Mid-America Regional Council...trying to finish the Roanoke Park Trails project...trying to start the Kessler Park Trails project...

I never sleep.  Literally.

I definitely never ride my bike, other than to get to/from the next place I need to get to and am most likely running a few minutes late for.  Not the ideal life right now, a little TOO busy, but that should mean that this springtime should be a little TOO un-busy :)

MANION'S SATURDAY!!! GO RACE CROSS.

Man cross....haven't even thought of it and it's already here.  I know this complete season is gone too.  I am not racing or planning on racing any time soon and have -75 minutes to give to training.  To say I'm in horrible shape is a tad of an understatement.

keep coming to build trail with me...keep riding your bike...I'll be joining again soon, promise!

peace and riding!!!
