Spring Fling Wrap Up

Well the last Spring Fling Crit race was last weekend (4-11-09). Long story short, is I ended up in 2nd place overall for the series. Not too bad for a triathlete in his first season of bike racing. Randy Booth finished 3rd and Dave Corwin finished in the top 10. Not a bad showing for Bike Stop first race series. I think a lot of us are planning on doing the Velotek Grand Prix next weekend. It is a stage race which means that you have a Time Trial, Crit and Road Race. The individual with the lowest time overall wins. Should be fun!

Training is going well, right on target for where I want to be. First Triathlon race is in 2 weeks in Columbia, MO. It is just a sprint, but should be a good test. . . I am actually looking forward to it.

Well, enough chit chat. Here are the pics from last weekend.

Quick update


View from my morning runs in Corbett, Oregon. Beautiful country. My Blackberry phone doesn't do it justice.

Oregon was great, I have some pics to post, but no time right now, but I will get those up soon. I ran everyday I was there and it is a beautiful place to run. . .very scenic and somewhat hilly too. :)

Spring Fling was this past weekend and I blew it. No excuses, I just blew it. I got 8th place and now I share the overall lead with a Bike Shack rider. This weekend will determine the winner, so we will see what happens.

That is all for now, this post is very boring, I know. . .but I will update later.
