Couch Ninja

Well I feel sufficient time has passed since I've last posted to my blog, so it is time once again to tickle the chin hairs of the interweb and enlighten you all to what's what and who's why.

As you've probably already surmised, I survived the winter (and the crowd rejoices).  I always make it out to be much worse that it really was, so I'll just leave it at that.  Spring is now here and trainer workouts are coming to an end.  That means no more dog staring at me while I suffer like a.......well you get the idea.

My cheering section.

And now time for something completely different:  I have raced my bike twice this year, and it's not even April yet.  I know, it's still early.  But I just couldn't help myself!  First race was in California, the Bonelli Pro XC Tour stop.  That course was killer!  But so was the start, as it killed my hopes of a solid finish.  Despite finishing well down, I thought I rode respectably, passing steadily throughout the race after starting DFL.  I also raced a local race, as in 15 minutes from my house, but was sick the day before and cramped halway through as I was steadily making my way towards the front of the race.  Can I have some cheese for my whine please?

The new whip.  Black is the new blue.

The Giant Mid-Atlantic Team is doing well, with a new addition and great support the 2011 season is looking to be a great one!  Check out our schedule on www.giantmidatlantic.com, and 'like' us on Facebook to find out where we'll be for sure.  Thanks to all our sponsors/partners/supporters, we couldn't be having this much fun without you!
