It has been a tough couple of weeks with some health concerns for my wife and girls. Things ended up being fine and everyone is very healthy. Trying not to write a sappy post so I'll move on.
It's amazing how much energy is drained by worry and also how much energy is added from being thankful.
I just bought a new bike (new to me). It is a 2010 Felt B2 and came with stock and carbon race wheels. This bike makes me want to be fast because it deserves to go fast.
Bike fitting in a few weeks and then I start training on this monster. Having my family supportive of this crazy hobby and race schedule not only gives me focus but is helping me get out and do the work in the cold so that this summer when I'm racing, I will be able to show I valued the time and money spent on this sport.
