Two Days Until the Adventure Continues...

I am finally going to make it out of Colorado and on to some warmer weather down South, hopefully. I say hopefully because I guess last week it snowed two inches in Mesa, AZ!?! Which is almost as unlikely as me racing the Tour de France. I hope that this crazy weather has gotten all the NM and AZ snow out of its system and will leave me out of the cold for the next three weeks. The plan for the trip is to continue the biggest base I have ever put in on the bike, by first going to a week of the Cycling Center Camp in Albuquerque, NM. Bernard has been nice enough to let me jump into the camp he is hosting for all the US riders that are going over to race in Belgium this season. The camp will also have riders from the intercontinental pro team Navigators Insurance and the pro women's team Lipton. All three teams are having a big unveiling next Saturday night. I am looking forward to the long group rides with these professional riders and the Cycling Center riders that are comin...

Things I won't miss on my trip...

After the quick little off season, I have decided to get out of Colorado and put in some good base miles in the fair Southern states. So next Thursday I will be off to spend a week in Albuquerque, NM training with the Cycling Center Team and maybe some of the Navigator, and Lipton Teams. After that I will be headed over to Phoenix, AZ to stay with my cousins, training for another week. And then we will finish it all of with the Valley of the Sun Stage Race. All in all it should be a relaxing trip. Here are the wintery Colorado things I will not miss: Driving in Blizzards Riding in less than 40 degree weather

To Be Healthy, Eat Like an Animal!

It is nice to finally see this sort of thing in the news. It will be a nice shift from the eat less approach. The American diet and the Food Industry is truly out of control, producing cheap calories with little nutrition or fulfillment. All you need to eat is on the outer isles of your local grocery store, and just remember if you buy it you will end up eating it. BBC Article

Just a thought...or maybe a wish...

If you find a fortune outside of a fortune cookie, could it be your fortune? I mean, it is just about the same, I did just find it, similar to just picking it out of a set. It could be reactivated by being in the possession of a new person. Or maybe it is still active; I would think they only run out after being possessed by the same person for awhile. Anyway I kind of like my fortune so we will see.
