Skinny #1 Racing

So there are these two black guys that work in the cafeteria in Newsom, and I must say that they are both pretty cool. Well one of them Marcus let me in on this secret of his called the Sushi Roll, and pretty much every time I eat there and he's working, I have him hook me up. Just to show the level of commitment this kid has I posted a picture of the finished product. It's great because he even put the dressing on top of like the pros do. Evan liked it so much that he took a picture and sent it to me which meant that I was obligated to put it up on here.
So here's the stupid peice of metal that I got in my tire that made me cut my ride short. I was just riding along when I heard this noise. I thought I picked up something that was in my spokes, but when I stopped to check it out I heard the pssssss that is idicative of a flat. My first one on the road this year. So I pulled into a gas station and fixed it, and was quite surprised when I found this in there.

Looks like this weekend I'll be doing three races. Saturday will be a 62 km road race, followed by a 20 km team time trial. Then Sunday will be the 45 minute criterium. I'm looking forward to it because I haven't raced in so long. I'm sure my form won't be as good as most people's but that's no big deal this time of year. Just wait until those two East coast NORBAs and we'll see who's in good form and who isn't.

I changed my flight today so I get back May 11th at 2:00 pm. I'm pretty excited because I'll be able to race the Belltwon Classic, which kicked my butt last year. I think the real problem was that I was on my old 9.8, and that's the best full suspension course of the year. I aslo missed a turn so this year I'm definitely gonna learn where I'm supposed to go so nothing crazy happens during the race. It looks like Ethan and the other fast junior were only a little slower than the Pros/Semi Pros at Farmington, and I'm sure that this year I'll be a lot faster than I was last year so I shouldn't do too bad racing Semi Pro.
