I did it. My boss now faces the chore of finding my replacement. We are parting on the best of terms. I told him this doesn't have to be a two weeks notice, or anything. I actually offered to work until the end of March, as long as I got all the Saturdays off so I could race. He took it rather well I'd say. He was a bit confrontational, and defensive when I brought up his disrespect to me. I interrupted him, and told him I wasn't going to argue it with him. It is what it is, and that I still value him as a friend. It is just simply time for me to move on.

One of my patients is a Cat 2 and is going to a training camp in Spain to train with a swedish team, I am highly jealous.

Handled in a very professional manner.

Thanks, I thought so. It actually went really well. I feel like a huge weight as been lifted. It feels great.
I know how you feel. I've spent some serious loot on bike schwag lately, and I can't even enjoy any of it for awhile. This weather sucks, but it too shall pass.

Getting a new bike is like changing a job....get the new one first THEN get rid of the old one.

I am going to stock up on tires, brake pads, and chains before I am unemployed. I'd like to ride allot while jobless.

Nice. I've been selling some rc car goodies to put towards buying a powertap.

Yes. If things work out the Quarq will be on the Colnago and the powertap will be on my back up bike, my Kestrel. That will keep me from having to switch the crank between bikes. If it doesn't work out then it's no big deal.

Ahhh, I was into that for a while back in the nineties. It still tugs at my heart strings occasionally, but my racing crowd is long gone.
