Weather isn’t looking too good. ohwell, I’m not going to be riding

Should be interesting…

So point that has been bothering me all day, I hate when people can switch their moods like THAT. Co-workers take things personally.. way too personal. Then they let it bother them all day like it’s their job or something. I hate it because it hurts me. Sometimes you need to say/do things to get done at work.. and it’s not to make someone mad, or be mean. I just needs to be done. Maybe it’s maturity, or maybe it’s that persons personality.

Grr…

On that note, if you need me reach me on the cell!

Finally got fit to my orbea… realized i had abnormally long femors. Which for biking is a really good thing. Ohwell. Point for me.

Tonight is going to be a borrito night, last night was one too.. but they are so damn good. Kris and I are going to goto Yo Borrito, and then I have to come back and ebay that bike of mine. Damn bikes. I went from 7 to like 2. It’s a good thing, I need to be spending tons of time on my road bike, like insane amounts of time. It’s going to be a good thing, because I am going to become a crusher again. It’s my goal for this spring and summer.

On that goal, my car papers are signed and all that shit. This weekend I will be driving it all over for the Tour de Cure. That should be exciting, but for a good cause, and free hotel rooms. It’s considered atleast 75% better than the SC MS150. Which was not TOO bad, but the route sucked, the hotel was nice.. but that’s it. The food sucked, it was frozen pasta.

The route goes straight on the beach, which is going to be nice. I haven’t checked the weather yet, guess I should do that sortly.

I road for about an hour and half this morning. It felt good, something I’ve been needing. I woke up at 7.. and bs’d a bit.. hit the road. I’ve missed riding early in the morning. This time last year its when I always rode. When the world was still waking up, everyone looks at you like your nuts.. it’s a good feeling.

Life is going to be crazy nuts for the next few months. Keith, a good friend of the shop, husband of the old manager.. has taken on the job as the new head manager.. as of this summer. It’s going to be a good thing, going to be hard for us all. Alot needs to be done, and changed. Again, it’s a very, very, very good thing. I’ve been dying here with having no real management in place. Kinda like we were all floating around in nothing-ness. No purpose other than the known task in hand. It’s going to make this shop into something, which is exciting.. but making me nervous as hell.

I thought riding 500+ miles would be hard.. but on a FIXED gear!!
