i did my longest training ride ever this weekend: 7 hours. and it wasn't just 5 minutes to a coffee shop, 6 hours 50 minutes of internet surfing while wearing a chamois, then 5 minutes home. i actually rode. and i even crashed myself. ice and pavement and excessive speed are not a good combination. i have a raspberry (perhaps blackberry?) on my rear to remind me.
and another congratulatory factoid: i rock at cooking. so much so that a former teammate (from florida) and a buddy (from connecticut) met at a training race a few weeks ago in florida. they got to talking. and figured out they both knew me. and kristin said "that girl can bake anything!" and kyle agreed, 'cause he'd seen me in action, too.
imagine that. half a country away and they both are privvy to one of my few talents: the kitchen fairy/mcguyver. makes me all warm and fuzzy inside to know i'm remembered for my mad kitchen skillz.
okay, done giving myself accolades.
and lo! behold! my pimpin new dmt cycling shoes that a nice mailman brought to me today. at least i'll look fast.

Blackberry's on the cheeks are never fun. I had a similar expierence while snowboard a few years back; I should have been air-lifted to the nearest hospital because of those crazy arctic squirrel cats. I'm lovin the shoes M. Those old carnac's had to go eh? And hey, your new shoes have the same color as those dreadful santa cruz banana slugs. Look fast? Yes, but you're gonna smoke everyone this year! Later Mandy
