Hello Bloggerati! It's been awhile since I've posted. Mainly because I'm getting converted to Facebook and Twitter. You can follow the links on the side bar of this Blog to follow me on those sites.
Anyway, Jodi, Jordyn, and I had a great time at the Iowa State Fair. Lots of decadent food, free entertainment, livestock, people, FAT people, expensive beer, and ran into good old friends! Always seems like you need more time there though.
I just completed the Altoona Criterium Races series. Fun, fun racing! If you pick the "A" race you get to race with the cat 1,2,3's. This makes for really fast racing. You're basically racing in the same race as some of the fastest racers in the Midwest. It makes for a great work out and helps you get much faster for in your own category of racing. This last race was exciting. I nailed a cone on the course, which almost ripped my handle bars out of my hands at 30mph! Close call! I ended up hanging on in the race for a mid pack finish.
Jodi and my schedules are finally easing up a bit, allowing us to start planning some camping trips. We love tent camping! Headed to a private campground this weekend near Des Moines for some much needed reconnect time. Other campgrounds in the running are; Backbone, Ledges, and Keomah, just to name a few.
Oh, almost forgot to mention, my last bicycle race series of my season is coming up on Labor Day weekend in St. Louis. The Gateway Cup. Four days of fast criterium racing with 90+ guys in my category everyday. Going with good friends of ours, Steve and Deisha, and staying at Jodi's sister's Victorian Mansion, where Penny and Rich treat us like Royalty! It's all a great atmosphere, great Italian food, great racing, and awesome friends and family! I can't wait!
See ya! Keep both wheels on the ground!
He who is quiet, agrees!
