creating yourself.

race in mke. woke up thought that it was raining. but was surprised by the nice weather. got all ready followed d-rukus to the race. kirsten came with me, and it was her first race she has been to. she took some nice pics. got there about nine oclock pre road the course with zack and luke. pretty rad course. lots of barriers one pretty steep but short hill to run up with a nice log at the bottom to ensure that. put on the cream. registered. got dressed in shorts and wool jersey. i thought it was going to be a lot warmer so i didnt bring warm weather clothing. nice one. anyways cat fours went john fucked up his chain. lyle looked good as well as d rukus. he had some issues with running into someone that stopped in the middle to fuck with something. then i road around a bit. to warm up. then my turn. go i was in about the first three and actually for the first time kept the momentum going. there were a lot of turns and flat areas. my favorite spot was in the woods the single track and muddy stuff. (if you can call that single track i guess) kept going. felt as i was bonking and wanted to just say hell with it, then i saw only one lap left... okay screw it i am doing well. kept on hammering. excited because i nailed my mounts and dismounts. i actually was jumping on like all the boys do, real proud! thanks to kirsten for coming, luke for the handout of liquids, and all the people cheering for me! it really gets me going!

to a super rad day... oh i forgot to say, i got 5th place, with some confusion that luke and kirsten thought 4th. ahh whatcha gonna do.

cheers to a beautiful day full of organic food, bikes, bike love, and sunshine.

love it.
