NeW TEam riDe

Meeting up with my new team this morning for an easy 3.5 hour ride. It will be a great chance to see everyone and chat about the 2009 season which is just around the corner. Right now we are looking at 7-8 guys on the 1/2 team which is perfect to be competitive in the Pro 1/2 field of Colorado racing. I'm excited to see what I can do with a team leadout in a crit. and I'm looking forward to pulling off some surprising wins. Of course I'll also have my hands full with riding support for our climbers and GC guys. It's going to be a fun season. GAME ON.

Winter is kind of here...

for the moment. The beauty of living in Colorado is the winters are actually very mild so although today might be cold with freezing drizzle. This weekend looks to we sunny and warm in the 50s; perfect for a training ride. I can deal.

Sin-na-gong Dinner

Michael and I went down to my sister's place to try her first attempt at a very popular Filipino dish called sin-na-gong. It was awesome and exactly like I remembered it when I was little. Of course the other highlight was playing with little Makenna who is just a riot. My sister also baked cookies and little Mac was all over the chocolate. Check out the pics.

"Please mum!"

The staredown. I'm not intimidated

The smackdown

Her purse, such a girl.

Obama & Change: Only Time Will Tell If That Change Is Good

I voted against McCain and Palin. Actually I just voted against the hockey mom. Yes Sarah Palin we know you're a hockey mom and you can see Alaska and that's great but we need a VP. Sorry.

From all the readings and reports I have read McCain's tax plan is a better plan when it comes to jump starting our economy, producing jobs and increasing our GDP. Obama's plan looks to do the same but leaving it in the hands of the people with a redistribution of wealth. In the end it's up to us so I'll take the tax break and make the most of it.

I can only hope now that Obama surrounds himself with a strong and intelligent team willing to work hard for the American people.

The New Year, well kind of sort of but not really.

You see today is the beginning of my 'official' training for the 2009 race season. What does that mean? Well right now just riding more consistently and watching my weight so the lbs. don't creep up on me too much over the holidays. I'm looking forward to some long and cold epic training rides with my new team. GAME ON!
