Coming together

Hey,
I know,I know we haven't really been blogging too much, trying to get Tasha to write a blog is like trying to get a dentist to tell you it's not really important to floss, but so it goes.

Things are starting to come together really nice. I really drained the batteries out of my wuss meter the last couple weeks and put in some good chamois time. I'm working on my invention as well, it's a chamwow short, you know those infomercials on TSN, Vince selling the German made Chamwow's, I'm trying to develop a chamois that retains that much water and sweat. On second thought, I just hd a visual and maybe it's not such a great idea, it's a little derriculous.

Ok, back to buisness. Met up with the some of the RWR's guys for some good old fashion computrainer pain. Nash, Marky Mark, Jimmy the Greek, Casey Skywalker Roth, Glen the Main Man Rendell, Chris Pretoria Pet Ried and Ron Firetruck Amos. It was pretty ballistic from the start. It didn't feel that bad until about ten minutes to go when Nash was closing on me fast and there was not a whole lot of reserve left, he came within 50 virtual feet of me, as in reality he was about 4 feet away, and almost got me, but I had my friend Elvis Presley talking me through the last couple hundred painful, painful meters. I don't actually remember the last couple minutes, but I know they happened.

So it was good to mix it up with the guys, indoors, but who cares, it makes for good training and had we been outside I would have fell off my bike.

So that was a nice little "test" to finish our training camp. Lone behold, we're going to the Catskills in a few days to do Agent Orange camp. What is Agent Orange camp? I'm not exactly sure, but I know Paul Datars is gonna lead us through some pretty sweet 180 km rides.

Other than that, just a few random thoughts. Man do the Senators look great these days or what? I tell you watching Alfredson set up plays, man the guy is so skilled, it's sick.

Oh yah and even us people down in the country here in Cornwall have been follwing the FOX news escapade. I can't belieive what they said about the Canadian Army, I know they were trying to be funny, but come on, I would seriously punch that guy in the mouth if I saw him. I'm not a big fan of punching people in the face, but that guy....well both those guys.
That's just ignorant, especially when 4 deceased Canadian Soldiers are being sent to CFB Pettawawa this week. Those guys (Canadian Army) are heroes fighting a fight that we didn't start.
It's funny how patriotic I've been since coming back from Europe, I never really realized how much of a proud Canadian I really am.

Ok, my rant is done. That gave me some extra anger today to pound the pedals, I somehow went so hard I got a flat on the Computrainer, now that doesn't happen everyday.
