Meat Puppets Tonight!
My unbeaten streak at Soldier Hollow is over. I have raced there twice before, I won The TUNA Biathalon up there once and an ICUP race a few years back. It is a great venue and I like racing there even when I don’t win. Despite no winning I am really happy with my race. My days of baseing my success (and self worth) based on my placing are thankfully long gone. I guess I am a recreational Pro these days. My only plan is to go out, push myself as hard as I can, have fun on two wheels, and hopefully have a cold one waiting at the finish (thanks Julie). So, mission accomplished. Oh yeah, I got 5th.
Once again got to put more faces to blogs. Met up with big mountain ripper, single speed hard man Forrest Gladding and his lovely wife Melanie. That has been one of the really cool benefits of writing this blog is I have had the chance to meet some really cool people.
Today os a day off in the Floyd freak show. All that thing needs is a guy in a bumblebee suit and it would be exactly like a Mexican soap opera. Hey Geoghagen, *67 check it out. Tool. I hear Basso is looking for a new stable boy, er assistant. Give him a call.
One of the benefits of having a job again is I can spoil myself with massage. Got one last night to work out my many kinks from the weekend. If you are in the 801 and need to get some work done drop me a line and I will hook you up with Rachael. The girls has some mad skills. She is a cyclist and pro tri geek so she knows the pain we feel and how to fix it. Recovery is the name of the game folks, if you want to take your performance to the next level do yourself a favor and give her a call. You will thank me.
Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash were sooo good. If you missed it, well you really missed it. There is a chance for redemption as the Meat Puppets are at the Urban Lounge tonight. I am predicting show of the year.
I almost forgot. At the Pedal Pusher Film Festival (which also rocked), 2 different people called me Racer. WTF? He is younger and way better looking than me. Wait maybe that means I am young and good looking too? Nah, they were probably drunk. I bet when people call him Art he punches them.
