This is where the pain goes down...

On the up side I got a massage last night. I try to get one once a month or so, I've been pretty jammed up since Big Bear. My masseuse is awesome. I admit it's not always the most relaxing, and frankly there are times when I think I want to cry as she works me over. In the end I always feel better...

On the upside, I have taken advantage of this time to start working on putting my next 24hr team together; thus far things are looking good. Got the Condo all set up, I think we are gonna have a good time. Hopefully, this weekend I feel like riding again and get going...

I have to be honest my thoughts have been on cross a lot. I find myself slipping over to
cyclocrossworld.com or Hupunited.com. I sold my old frame that was too big for me this week, and look to pick up my new frame this weekend. It's nothing sexy, but a solid platform, and a work horse bike, a role player. I kinda think of myself that way, so maybe this bike will really work out for me. Best of all it's gonna set me back only a couple of franklins. Yeah, I'm a cheap bastard. I can't wait for cross. Has anyone seen the calendar yet?

Anyhow, I'm gonna go take a semi-muddy shower, and beat myself up because I'm too fat and lazy to get out on my bike before work. Like I said, a motivational crisis, I hope this will pass soon...
