Independence Valley Road Race and Piece of Cake

I’m finally back.  Although it’s not Kennettron 5000 right now, more like Kennitta 0.50.  But I’ve got over all my sicknesses and injuries for the entire season.  I’ve decided that I’ll have no more of it!  
IVRR was an epic race, and not to use the term lightly either.  It was by far the worst [...]

Back Update

My back is feeling much better.  I haven’t seen a doctor yet, and I’m pretty confident that I don’t need to anymore.  I’ve ridden the past two days and feel super slow, but my back is continuing to heal quickly and it already felt more comfortable on the bike today than yesterday.  Hopefully my fitness [...]

Home early

My back wasn’t going to be good enough to race on by Thursday, so I came home early to rest it and see a doctor this weekend.  Ironically, today–the day I returned–, is the first day that it’s felt pretty good.  The pain is still there but much milder than before.  With the sickness and [...]

My back still hurts

I’m staying with my friends Chad and Dustin (some former dorm roommates) in Costa Mesa.  The weather’s great here.  Seventy’s and sunny and we’ve just been hanging out at the beach all day today and yesterday.  But my back is still in bad shape.  I tried riding today, just around the block, and decided to [...]

Kennett goes down at Murrieta

After spending the night at Debbie’s house on Thursday, I moved to another location.  She and her entire family came down with a bad cold on Wednesday, and we all thought it was best if I wasn’t around to catch it.  Luckily, she owns a vacant condo a few miles away, so she took me [...]

Te-meh-que-la

Home of Flyod Landis.  City of Old Western scenes, steam engines, and hot air balloons.  According to a mural on a building I’m looking at.
Spelled Temecula and pronounced like above, with the emphasis on the ‘meh’.
That’s how you pronounce it.  Not Temecooola, which is what I’ve been saying.  And I’m here at last, writing this [...]

BB#2 bunch a’ sissies

I woke up at 6:10 this morning and my mom and I drove out to Henry Harrison Hamilton Haphazard Hagg Lake for Banana Belt #2. Apparently no one else did. I’m almost positive there was supposed to be a race there today. With that said, there can be only one reason why [...]

TOC throw down

I guess it’s old news, but I just came across these pictures. Pretty funny.

I like how the other riders in the background seem to be laughing.

Murrieta and San Dimas stage races

I just registered for both races.  Murrieta is on the 14th and 15th.  San Dimas is from the 20th to the 22nd.  Like I said in the last post, if you know anyone that lives in either of these cities, let me know.  I have a friend who lives somewhat close to San Dimas, but [...]

Looking for Host housing in CA

I might do the tour of Murrieta and San Dimas stage race if I can find a place to stay.  The tour of Murrieta starts on March 14th and goes until the 15th.  San Dimas starts the next weekend and goes from March 20 to the 22nd.  I may have a place to stay in [...]
