Hiking?
I have been hiking a lot lately. HIKING! Yeah its like that… The whole time I am hiking I am scanning the trail for the sweet line, thinking about what gear I would be in (Big Ring), looking at the other people hiking with 4 good limbs wondering why the hell they are not on a bike. I know I should not complain, at least I can do that. I know there are kids in cancer wards who would kill to be able to get out for a hike. Still though.
It is funny how people you think you can count on will let you down and others will step up when you least expect it. I guess the lesson to be learned here is don’t count people out ‘cuz they can always turn it around and don’t count on anyone ‘cuz it hurts so much more when they are not there for you like you were for them. Leave it open and let the universe surprise you.
How about Zabriskie at Dauphne? Good to see him get the green light and go for a result. I think he proved he is the real deal to everyone who doubted. I hope he gets some chances at the Tour to throw down.
