A New Year

alright, i'm finally going to start this thing. it's a new years resolution! if you only enjoy reading properly spelled and writen grammer than i suggest you don't read this blog much, its purpose is to inform and update!

So to summarize the past year: I was attending Oakland University in MI and racing bikes. Raced for the Wolverines Sports Club (I love you guys!) and last summer was my first time really getting out of town for a month and having the opportunity to do some NRC races, which was a blast! i got some good results and ended the season with collegiate and elite track nationals...or so i thought. I should probably mention i went to collegiate nationals with the Lees-McRae gang, which is the college i now attent in Banner Elk, NC! i ended up also doing cyclocross nationals for the college team and we did very well coming home with a national championship. So basically life has revolved around bike riding, with lots of other fun stuff on the side! I got an offer to ride with a team out of Philidelphia called Verducci/Breakaway next season and i'm pretty excited about that...still always a Wolverine at heart! Verducci should bring some great experiences and alow me to do a lot on the track and road! Over time I will try to fill in all the blanks with random entries...

It is beautiful here in the the mountains...although sometimes my legs long for a nice flat MI to go have an easy ride! Here is a picture of what i see out my from window at the appartment i just started renting with a few team mates...

These are my new room mates: Scott Jackson aka "action Jackson" working on Sheeds bike in our kitchen or commonly used workshop! Jackson is an awsome mechanic and i'm really going to miss him when he leaves for training camp in New Mexico and then for belgium...buy hey he's chasin the dream! And the other piture is of Katie all bundled up on the futon, it will just be us girls after scott takes off. Katie also races bikes but she just isn't quite as obsessed as Scott and i are...




So for now that will have to do, i will try to post more soon...
