Velochallenge

It dawned on me today, that my blog is very neglected. Ever since my work announced they would be restructuring (aka laying off), I seemed to have trouble finding my focus on both cycling and maintaining my web presence.   I’m been very busy with my job and finally have the stressed relief from me by management indicating that I’m safe.  Just sad to have more than a few fellow co-workers no longer sharing the office.  I wish them the best of luck and to the few I will see out on the track.

I just wanted to stop in to say hi…don’t give up on me…I will be back to blogging. I will soon be back to my hobby: Cycling , that always perks me up!   Not much longer until Cyclocross!

Looks like google has some interesting tricycles to map the footpaths around UK. After seeing the pic of the trike, it just makes me wonder if it would work for cyclcross?

Happy New Year!

With the 2008 season behind, I’m looking forward to begin a new season of road and track racing. Being a first time parent did not leave me much time for racing, so I am definitely looking toward 2009.  My goals for the coming year are rather basic:

• Ride 100-150 miles a week
• Minimum mid-pack at races
• Cat 2 on the track
• Compete in Alpenrose Velodrome Challenge (AVC)

Hope everyone has a Happy New Year.  Now go out and ride!
