Gloucester day 1

Hey
Quick little update. Traveled to Gloucester yesterday, arrived in a timely way..then started to ride the trainer...Tash said "let's go to the course"..so we rode to the course...she flatted, I rode the flat 20km in the pouring rain and it was completely dark. Oh well, it's all about perspective...

Tasha had crazy amounts of bad luck today, a shifter problem on the start line, then a a bad start, then rolled a tire, then ran to the pit, then managed to get up to third. She put in a great ride! got way too excited and half assed my warm up, so I was a little off the pace at the start.

I had a small little crash that cost me a bit and shook me up a bit as I went over my bars, but it's ok. It wasn't the best ride, in the top ten, but I kind of shut it down and I plan on going well tomorrow...picked up 40 $ in cash through the barriers, 20$ on the ground and 20$ out of a lady's mouth...gotta make a living eh?

So other than that...Tasha is gonna have her picture on a brand of beer, limited edition for Cross season...wicked, free beer, wooohooo!

Other than that, great weather today, I love it here, it's so nice, the Ocean, the atmosphere, the race, love it. Nice sun shine.

Oh yah check out www.cyclingdirt.org we are going to have a funny post race interview.

Ok...relax time.
