crazy hair

5 days until the first race.. it is all i want in life these daze... all i have been working for it seems. my toes and hands are cold. my trailer space heater has not caught up with the cold air that has settled around my body. i should get off this computer and snuggle into my two comforters, surround my self with my pillows and hope for sleep. my mind has been racing for about a week and a half now. more than usual. and i am wanting to feel rested. but my eyes are opening earlier and earlier it seems but my body isn't. i lie waiting for a little sleep. or i just envision back flips. how to approach the lip, lean forward a little then thrust back, looking up and back spotting the landing, just before i see it i shift my weight forward to counteract the rotation.. relax and land. this is all in theory. i have never done a back flip... but maybe soon. we will have to see.

I’d like to have that power. I’d like to demand a responsibility from the companies I represent as well as a responsibility from myself. But honestly where would I be right now if I had demanded that? I don’t know if I would be where I am today. Which is still working in the bike industry and still believing I can take my love of biking and espouse it on others. I still believe that bikes can save the world. But I don’t believe bikes can save the world the way our bike loving industry is doing it. ...

FONTANA aka FONTUCKY

Just spent the weekend down in warm windy socal racing at the Southridge series at Southridge park in Fontana, the location of a stop on the NORBA national series. Despite the lack of altitude and chairlift the organizers need to be recognized for putting together a good event, listening to the riders and holding an event for the many riders that show up to play, have fun, check out bikes and enjoy the sport of cycling. The terrain is dusty, lose and has the potential to have some great techy sections. not a high speed course. Shorter than sea otter, but they are working with what they have. And the courses are ever evolving. I think that if they keep mixing it up they might be able to put a pretty fun short course together for the national. The mtn-x needs a little more work. It is really short. But all in all in was fun to get away for the weekend see a few friends, ride my bike and test out my awesome new travis fork. Hopefully I will be heading out to Bootleg canyon this weekend fo...
