new team

sup y'all:

Well April has brought the showers and every single trail within 200 miles is done for, for a while :'( Let there be rejoicing though, I have found myself a team to race with this year, Team Colavita/Parisi Coffee: http://www.teamcolavitakc.com/content/index.shtml

Check them out, really cool peeps building a REAL team, not just a show-and-go-jersey-wearing club. Seems like most of their riders are primarily pavement pushers (just kidding!) so I'll have to bring the dirtiness to the team. I am really looking forward to being a part of Team Colavita/Parisi Coffee as they offer great support during races, team training rides and sweet deals through Volker Bike Shop: http://volkerbicycles.com/content/index.html

Mason has been working some CRAZZZZY hours. 5:30p-10:00p at UPS then he drives to Lawrence for the 11:00p-7:30a shift at another packaging plant, gets home around eight-thirty, eats, passes out by nine and wakes up again by 4:30 in the afternoon to do it all over again. I am sure he will be loving all the dough he's about to have though, damn that's a crazy schedule! Kind of sucks because we haven't ridden together in about a month, honestly we haven't really seen each other that much since he started working like a crazy man. Maybe 15 minutes on T/R mornings and maybe 10 minutes every night. I am just all confused on living with someone who I used to ride with 5-6x a week and now we are on COMPLETELY opposite schedules. I wake up/he gets off work. I get home from school/work, he is waking up to leave. Totally weird.

But anyway, we are still teamed up for the BoneBender 6 hour race and we plan on killing some people on some single speed goodness. The weekend after is the God's Country Duathlon/MTB race, I am doing the duathlon and Mason will be in the single speed class of the MTB race. Of course, the rain has to let up for a little bit :/

have a good month! it's warm enough now you can get outside for at least a little bit everyday!

peace!!!!!!!!
