It Ain't No Chicken Ride

Saturday we decided to join a cookie ride near Claxton, GA and ride bandit style. 75 miles later, 2 red neck store stops, and a few near bonk arguments made us realize we aren't in Kansas anymore. We'll be back in the Upstate soon to join the Chicken Ride and WBL's. We did enjoy the beautiful scenery of cotton and walnut pick'in!

Fall for Greenville Weekend

We had a great time in GVL last weekend for the Cycling Classic. The absolute end to the cycling season! Now Sean gets to play BB and soccer with boys half his age in the Recreation Center and I get to train for that half marathon people always talk me into signing up for.

Fall for Greenville

Stop the Misery!

I have a theory that continues to hold true. Every time we move to a new area in the country a debilitating flu/illness awaits us. We don’t have the antibodies of the locals to fight off the everyday bug so it waits for us newbie’s, attacks, and makes us miserable for days, weeks, etc. Sean and I both got the local flu. We have spent a week in bed shivering, sniffling, coughing, just waiting for it to run its course and leave. After a week I am finally feeling like coming into the office and working, a very necessary task. While Sean took the day to race in a local series to see how he felt. His luck continues to be low when he t-boned into a down rider on the course. He saw a few guys in the break swing left wondering what was going on. The down rider was not even part of the road race and made a bone head move of looking back to see who was coming. Luckily, he only has some starches and a bruised back. He managed to get back in and finish with the break. Is this week over yet?

A bike with one wheel?

It's a good thing Sean has two wheels on his bike! Trying to ride Terry's unicycle proved to be a task even the multi-talented super athlete Sean could not conquer. It was sure fun watching him try!

Labor Day

Although we may have moved, we are close enough to Greenville to come back often. This weekend we were back for the SC State Road Race Championships (which both Sean and my team took the SC titles), US Pro Races, and a little playing in Clemson. Thanks to everyone for their hospitality. We had a great time!
