Just around the bend…

Saturday, February 10th, 2007

jumpfrog.gifNot Bend, OR or any other town named after Bend, but around a bend like a corner bend…

Today was the first day of racing for you and me being you if you raced for the first time today and me as in Chrissy. It was for… Kelly, Sarah and I how adventured out in the rain to splash in puddles and round many bends both in the right and left direction for about 1 hour and between 8 and 234 laps, closer to 25 then either of those number.

In the end Brooke won, followed by Kelly, me, and a number of others who also finished the bending here and there race in Martinez, CA.

Now tomorrow we are racing for pies… I really like pies, although I like cookies better.. unless it is pumpkin pie then I like pumpkin pie better.. Anyways we are racing in the town of Napa for pies. And although I like to splash in puddles and get all wet I am really hoping to break out the tanning lotion and oil up…

Although, I don’t want to much oil on my fingers because I don’t want to lose control of my bike. That is actually why I used to crash all the time… I was hoping to get even tan lines all over my body and put to much oil on my fingers…

Live and learn, learn and live…

Alright, it is Saturday and that only means one thing…

Until next time, have a good rest of your Saturday cause it is Sunday tomorrow which means it should be sunny…

jumpfrog.gifOut in the wild wild east we have been riding wide and far faster than any cheetah would imagine going… uphill, sideways or even on the flatter grounds which are few between here and there. Downhill it is usually faster then the speed of sound or light cause I am pretty sure you can’t hear us or even see us. Although we do have red on… that is true.

No, I am just kidding we don’t go that fast down the hills… Anyways, we are in the wild west of South Carolina where the hills go up and the mnts. (mountains) go down, the lakes have water, and the trees move back and forth when the wind blows back and forth.

This year on the Cheerwine team we have Rachel, Leigh, Brooke, Sarah, Sarah, Laura, Kelly, Beth, Betina, Clara, Alisha, Catherine, and me. Any do you know what that means… yep we will get lots of that tasty tasty cheerwine soda pop (soda for those who like soda, pop for those who like pop, and soda pop for any others)…

You should look at some of my teammates blogs for pictures because I don’t have a computer so I can’t download pictures…

Here is a list

Leigh (I am using her computer right now… just to let you know)

Brooke

okay that is all… I have teammates like me… slacker lately bloggers

Alright, since it is snowing outside and we are in a college town I am going to go see if there is anyone who wants to have a snow ball fight or go make snow angles since I haven’t made any this year… You know college towns are good for that.

Until next time, I hope you are having a good time
