Go fast, eh?

Anothere great weekend to race bikes! We dropped the girls off in Pulaski and kept on heading North to Marquette, Michigan. I felt like Jesse Bell for a while except I only do this drive once, maybe twice a year not almost every weekend. He probably doesn't stop in Pulaski, either. Anyway, we finally got hooked up with the 212 crew and feasted at Tom and Jackie's place, (thanks again!). After a few trips to the breakfast buffet at the Big Boy (ugh.) on Saturday morning it was go time. Start was fast, water was deep, came close but didn't quite make it all happen for the team. Good job by all, though. The 212 girls rocked it as well. I made some memories for us in the final miles as once again! If you want to know, you'll have to ask. Then it was back to Tom and Jackie's for drinks. I found out Tim can make a mean African-Russian!
So at the awards, the anouncer lady says "Our second oldest competitor up there(there being the top 20), in 8th place, blah blah blah". Now, I know that's probably supposed to be a compliment but I kinda felt like I was just called "Big Boned" instead of fat.
Chris made us late for the group ride Sunday morning but the trails had us all smiling ear to ear! A guided tour of some sweet singletrack including riding on top of a huge pipe. What the heck was/is the pipe for, anyway? Then it was time to head back to the Twin Cities (Leland and Denzer) and get ready for another race weekend coming up. Back to Green Bay for Reforestation. It's gonna' be sweet!
