Man this weekend sucked. While, the weekend was good, just the race was a bummer. It's amazing how 1 minute can make or break your day.
I have some OK pictures from the weekend but I'm too worked to put them up right now. Sunday morning when I went for a spin in the morning it was 60 degrees at 10am. When we raced at 1:30pm it was 25 degrees and when we finished 1 hour later it was 20 degrees. That's cold.
It wasn't happening for me and I finished off the podium for the first time ever at cross Nationals. Oh yea, not the kind of PR I was looking for. When I finished I had ice on my hair, eye brows and eye lashes.
Hear that Myerson and Baker got in a fist fight out on the course. Didn't get to see it but I heard it happened right in front of Proctor and Gully. Saw Page's mechanic get jumped by two guys right after the race and punched in the face multiple times after being tackled on a bunch of Richard Sachs bikes. That was the high light of my weekend. We had a great time at the post race party but nothing too crazy. Got to hang out with the family too this weekend since we haven't gotten to spend XMas/my birthday together lately.
I have to say the cross vibe is by far the coolest of any I have ever felt. All the riders are awesome, everyone gets along and it's always so much fun to hang out with everyone. If the races were easy like they use to be that would be even better.
Meg and I are suppose to leave for Mexico tomorrow morning but we have 4 inches of fresh on the ground and it's suppose to snow another 4 tonight and keep snowing through the weekend. It's a huge drive to begin with but add in a blizzard for 400 miles and it's even longer.
The FLC crew's van broke down this morning and they got stuck in Kansas City waiting for it to be repaired for the morning. Now they're going to hit this big snow storm and most of the kids have finals this week.
OK, Winston and I are tired and have a big drive ahead of us in the morning.
The 08 season is a wrap and although cross nationals were a low light, the season as a whole was incredible. I hope I can have that good of a season next year.
I wonder if we'll start driving tomorrow or blow it off for a few days and go snowboarding ......
