Lots of things have happenned

The first thing that happenned was the usual Marysville Stage Race. This year's format was different: Night Team Time Trial, 12 hr team or 9 hr solo, short track.

Rode the NTTT solo, finished something in the solo class. Don't exactly remember. Maybe 12th or 15th. Saturday I was the usual stupid solo. 9hrs, 9 laps, finished 7th in the Open's Men class. I'm pretty happy with that. It should put me in better position in the series. Which I am going in for the win this year. I don't want just to podium anymore. I want the win. Thanks for all your encouragement Rob.

Congrats go out to all the kids on their two teams, who did a fantastic job showing up a lot of older more experienced racers. Also to Bacon, Tofu, Jerk, and Monkey for being awesome and helpful for everyone, especially the kids.

Chillin' with good friends

The next weekend was our race, the Long Pine Classic. Ms. Geology came out and did a bang-up job running registration. And my mom and sister held down a checkpoint, making sure all racers got around the course safely. Thanks for the help. I did some setup in the morning, then raced the Expert Race. Ended up in the dick spot, just off the podium in 4th. Everyone had a good day. Congrats to Forest who won his first MASS race, absolutely crushing the Sport junior field. No pictures from this yet, too busy.

The next morning we lodaed up and headed out west. 34 some hours later we arrived at our house in Tabernash, Colorado. I broke the dishwasher, Fernando fixed the hot water heater, the fridge got a short, but other than that everything is amazing. Colorado is awesome.
