Welcome back Ben, you have been missed.
2009 seems to have been a weird year of transitions, trials, and turbulence for more than a few. I dread the 09 goals thread when it resurfaces, but it has made me rethink my 2010 goals to be more realistic and reflect just moving forward as far as weight, riding, and living.
It's good to have you back, the place is missing something when you are otherwise occupied.
