I drove to school yesterday. See that tower past the other buildings? That's where I had to walk to get to the metal detectors to be allowed in. It took me SIX minutes to walk that far. Enough of that.
My (most favorite principal ever) is letting me come in a hour and fifteen minutes late every Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday so I can ride my bike more. That's just cool. Senior year!
Speaking of Senior year (and what's left of it) I sent my deposit to the University of Colorado in Boulder. Now I have to pick out where I want to live and how many times a week I would like to eat. And the most important issue... where I'm going to store all the bicycles. It's slowly sinking in that they ALL aren't going to go (Unless someone has a hook up in Boulder where I can store some bikes. I just need to switch them out when the seasons change. I'll wash windows or something).
Let me know.
March 22 there is a mountain bike race Maryland that's going to count for USAC mtn upgrades. Which really is cool and all, since I've been refused a Cat 1 license multiple times in the last month. If you've seen me at all in this time I'm sure I've vented a little about it. So sport-rider-is-me until I can get an upgrade by racing a sanctioned race. I raced 5 sport races in my career before I moved up to expert. The USAC upgrader I had basically told me there is no doubt I should be bumped up, but a new rule change (effective THIS year) is that he can't look at anything that isn't USA cycling sanctioned. Not his fault, I felt bad for him. Kind of dumb on USAC though. Since everyone knows that sandbagging is sweet.

Man your lucky to come to school late. I'm only at my high school from 8:15 to 12:00. But then I got to drive all the way out to the community college and take classes there for the remainder of the day. Like on wednesdays, I get out of class at 5:00 pm. It's crazy. I can't wait till I'm a senior. Bein a junior kinda sux. Boulder, Colorado huh.... that's like the best place to do some racing.
for real, talk to the cycling team for storage. they have room, they have to right?
Six minutes of walking... hahaha, "...enough of THAT..."!!! You could probably bike it in half that time........ from home :)
high maintenance.
