I love competition, but collegiate cycling gives you home slices from the kids you wanna pound into the pavement, or splash with mud. IT all comes down to the simple joys in life, the best way to make friends- Getting dirty and running around outside.
So, while the winter weather has gotten me down, I turn to my dearest procrastinating friend, Facebook and reflect on why I work night shifts and sleep maybe 3-5hrs a night and less on the weekends for a sport most of my school friends have never even seen.
I raise my pedal strokes to you, the people that bring the heart to the ECCC and have given me an awesome experience, thanks and I can't wait to see you in March...and those gone and graduated we'll ride again someday.
Get on your bikes kids! 43 Days Away!
