Ambition

As I write this, about 9 hours have elapsed since my friend Brad (see link at left) started the LOTOJA-- the Logan to Jackson cycling race. Not only is it the longest single day race in North America, it's also one of the most grueling. It's got serious hills-- mountains really, it takes place at a high altitude, and did I mention it's really long? 206 miles. Well, here's kudos to you Brad. I came out to support you, but your group went up a closed road just a bit before I found you. Instead, I send on the wishes of this woman (blowing a kiss to you) and hope you have a speedy recovery after you finish in an hour or so.

Thanks Austin. I appreciate the note. It was a grueling and difficult ride but in the end very rewarding to know that I could do it. Next year you'll have to join me. Obviously the pain is wearing off because I just said that.

You even beat me to posting about Brad and the Lotoja. I am working on an entry now.
