So where the helll've I been and is it worth writing about? For the most part, just around and not really.
In the last few months, or at least since February, I've been laid off, rehired and then recruited to join a former competitor. and we ran a short track mtb series that you may be familiar with.
I've been feeling like my next endurance event ought to be on one of these.
Granted I've been doing a good bit of lifting. These things get heavy after the first few.
And I've been doing my fair share of these. Thats not a filter. I really look that blurry when I ride.
And thats not even a furly! Those are still going strong. Nothing better than having that 2:30 feeling at 11:15, right?
All of the career changes gave me a lot of time to ride, but not a lot of motivation to do things blog-worthy. When Im crushed with work, family and racing , I'm happy as hell. I now know that I could not retire at this age. I would be a danger to myself and all those around me. Granted, it was nice to watch a lot of the tour in real time. I'd rather be busy. And so now the TdF is over, theres talk of Cyclocross in the air and I've signed up for a 50 mile mtb race. Back to Georgia for another crack at Fools Gold w Seiler , Collins and whoever else gets tricked into going. This is the pace I like. Busy as hell with the new job, training for a cool race and trying to fit it all in early so I dont miss time with my kids and the domestic goddess/most patient spouse ever.
Without going on for no reason(its a blog so that mightve been redundant), its good to be back and with the mtb season wrapping up and cx getting ready to pop. I guess its time to dust this bully pulpit off and start flinging invective around again.
So you've been warned.
