Nothing like living in Florida.
Got another crit in a few days, Thurs Jan1.
10 month race seasons rule.

Dec. 27th and we were wearing shorts and short sleeves today. Not too bad. Was there a good turn out at the crit?

10 month seasons do in fact rule.

On the other hand, I'm not sure if I'd be willing to live in FLA to have that luxury.

I'm sure you can understand.

^ I agree.

due to massive heat wave in the midwest, we now have flooding from the entire universe thawing out.

I hate right now...in general. everything.

How'd you do?

Let's just say, after three years of retirement, I headed into the '09 season with a race "under my belt". Had a slow leak for the first half of the race before I finally figured out why the corners felt sketchy.

Botto - I know why others don't enjoy FL, but the good parts are soooooo good.
