Hey Lance!!!

How do you make is so easy yet so tough to love you???

Half of my brain sees an amazing human being that stands for something greater than cycling itself. As a cyclist myself I often find myself asking why should I love you???

If all of this doping is true than you are a liar. What's worse is that most of the second place finishers behind you in those 7 wins have already been accused of doping.WTF???

Why did you lie? Why did you do it?

Why do I find myself able to overlook this sometimes?

Why do I care?

Because I don't love you, I hate you for ruining the sport, something so simple to love. So pure in my heart. I hate you but I don't hate what someone like you can stand for. We still need a hero.

Bras for a Cause

On my ride today, I came across 100 bras hanging on a pedestrian bridge along the hike and bike trail. Great sign of support for breast cancer awareness month!

What do these things have in common?

Elmton Pizza in south Youngstown, birthday party with the Conricotes, a morning bike ride into the valley to watch the Akron Marathon pass through, Zac Brown Band in concert? Not much but it's making for a great weekend!

Side note, my BG has been out of control. Need to reign my sugars back in with some butt kicking workouts. Hopefully I can get another ride in tomorrow. I would be happy with a short 30 or 35 miler.

To come, my riding review from the Summer! Next year is it, I want to start racing on the road as well as off-road! Join me in checking out my journey from rider to racer. :)

Akron Marathon!

Good luck to everyone running in the Akron Marathon tomorrow!
