I haven’t been keeping up with my duties on the blog front.
Here are some pictures from Saturday’s Crack Loop.Great……Sideways
And here we have my friends Nate, Jake, and Joseph.If your wondering why they are so excited ,they are thinking about the hour long dirt climb.
In other news my bike is finished.My brother Mark and my Dad went to the Rocky Mountain Handmade Bicycle Show to check it out. Mark was gracious enough to model. I think it turned out well. I think it will look very classy with my parts.
Yesterday I went downhilling in Wilson’s Creek, there was to much standing around. I was convinced that I should ride flats like everyone else, so I did. I am just as fast downhill, but way sketchier in really rough zones.

 I miss Fort Collins a whole lot, the school is getting under my skin.

I talked with Nathan and Bryan a week ago , it was hard to talk to them because I wanted to be home. They are really good friends, and we’ve not been keeping up. Friendships like that take a long time to develop and I don’t want to lose it. And I feel like I am losing it here at LMC. I am getting faster, and I have learned more from observing my teammates then I have learned in my classes. However, I have also learned that you don’t have to have a square head on your shoulders to be fast. I still hold speed and endurance as fine qualities to have, but who you are is much more important. I now have to write an annotated bibliography. Barf
