Yay, white death

So, I have decided to start to blog since I will be traveling around so much this year.

Some major traveling points this year will be Greenville, SC for spring break, Arkansas in early May, possibly Michigan for Memorial Day weekend, Chicago a couple of times in August, St. Louis for Labor Day weekend, Grand Rapids, MI in September, possibly Kansas City (for Cyclo-Cross nationals). All of the traveling is a result of me trying to my racing to another level this year. Although I am looking forward to seeing those places, I am incredibly excited about my trip to Belgium to race and visiting Paris and Amsterdam while I am over from mid-June to mid-July. The trip to Belgium will come days after my graduation from UC with Electrical Engineering degree. I am excited about graduation, and my entering the 'real' world especially with my recent signing on with Turner FMS. It will be a national traveling job which I look forward to to doing.

If you want an explaination of why it got cold in Ohio during the last week of February, just look below:


You are seeing that correctly......I actually won a sprint from 150 meters out. I don't know if these has ever happen on a bike for me. In fact, my UC teammate, Adam, was the judge and was confused by what happened (for those of you who don't know, I am well known for my lack of sprinting capabilities). Too bad it was for a mid-race preme, but I will still take it.


Since the white death has decided to visit us in March, I am looking forward to mountain biking tomorrow to try to keep the cabin fever at bay.



With one week left in the quarter, I will have a busy week of classes ahead of me.

Till next time,
Ciao
