Ach Ja!: Dein Jeffersohn Cup

I normally wouldn't have done a race feeling more blown out than a Motley Crue groupie, but I had already registered for a race, had a free hotel room, and the opportunity to ride as a team for the first time so far this year. Shitty or not I couldn't resist the temptation and decided to do the 3/4 and help my teammate The Delaware Diesel get that W to get his auto upgrade to the 2's. Clint is a strong rider and a strong sprinter, but has recently suffered from some bad luck.

Greenbelt Pt.1

I was pretty excited to start the Greenbelt series for many reasons:
1. Not really any points so no pressure.
2. Racing is more fun than intervals.
3. Its a good excuse to get in a solid bit of mid-week riding.
4. Cool to chill with some other DC riders and get to know people on other teams better.
5. What else am I gunna do?

Ephrata- From Suck Fest to Bad Luck Fest

I decided to head up to lovely Amish Country and skip Bunny Hop to race the Ephrata Omnium. I switched from the 3/4 to the 4 at the last minute and was hoping to finally 'do things right'.
